Hi everyone, Some thoughts on Jpegw.
I have used images set up in JGW very successfully. When opening the file jpeg file one requires the PRojection information. Once the project is selected the file loads and creats a TAB header file automatically. I have only used this file format with PRO 7.0. I have not tried the procedure on JPW. The format 1.000000010728545 0 0 -1.000000010728545 674669.5736569071 5804723.988922243 Map Unit: Meter Coordinate System: NAD_1983_UTM_Zone_11N EPSG: 26911 Datum: D_North_American_1983 Projection: Transverse Mercator Spheroid: GRS_1980 Central_Meridian: -117.0 Latitude_Of_Origin: 0.0 Scale_Factor: 0.9996 False_Northing: 0.0 m False_Easting: 500000.0 m Data Producer: Pixxures 1999 Data Provider: Pixxures Inc.

(a0,b0) are the upper-left corner of image, which is why b2 is usually negative as ground Y is normally defined to be positive upwards. It should be fairly easy to transform a TFW to TAB, just applying the above formula appropriately. The other direction is a bit more tricky since MapInfo handles more than 3 control points.
