I have updated my computer to Windows 10 64 bits and I find the problem that the ZIMAGLIT.EXE program does not work on 64-bit operating systems.
Is there another program that converts images into the GRF format?
Do you have any function that performs this conversion?
I know that the ZEBRA Bridge program exists to convert BMP or JPG images to GRF but this takes many steps and causes a lot of confusion in users.

Hi Miguel;

  I have done this in many PB, Web & Mobile applications. For this manipulation, I use the free (open source) ImageMagick product. For the PowerServer web & mobile Apps, I handled the manipulation via  PB Web service that brokered the ImageMagick interaction. Passing the image data stream back & forth via a DB blob.

HTH

Regards ... Chris

PS: I have PB & PS examples

Do you have the code? could you share with me, please?

With this application it is possible to convert an image from JPG or BMP to GRF format?

thanks and regards,

Fernando.

Hi Fernamdo;

Unfortunately, ImageMagick supports a plethora of image types but not GRF. Do you mean GIF?

FYI: https://imagemagick.org/script/formats.php

Powerbuilder does not have any function to convert. Maybe you should contact the makers of zigmalit or I suggest you google on it. There seems to be a JAVA api which might be useful.
