Jeff, Gerry, Michael et al,
I provided a PNG device driver with the GEMPAK distribution, being built
under
$GEMPAK/source/driver/active/png
This is using the "gf" driver imaging, so "png" does require the X display as
does the gf driver.
In the interim since, boutell.com made the gd library available (which is the
key component of the "gif" driver
that runs without an X display) with necessary updates to support png (and
jpg) so I can send you the steps needed to make a png driver
that is X independent. Download the GD library from http://libgd.org.

so true..
I was using the images from the GOES server, which is in TIFF,
the using ImageMagick to combine the overlay's and convert to jpg and png
be nice if GEMPAK had png or jpg support ..... hint hint....

IIRC, a little script-foo with ImageMagick's convert should do the trick
'til the TIFF driver is back in action.
