Exporting Raster Formats From Grass

I am running Xgrass4.1 on Linux, and have created some 3D images based on
DEM and other raster data in the graphics monitor. Is there any way to
"export" these images from the monitor into a format (tif, gif, jpg, bmp,
ect.) I can use with a Windows based graphics program such as Corel or
Photoshop?

Thanks,

Hi,

    There are two ways to obtain your image files:

    1. low-resolution:
       Just use screen-grab tool (like XV ore Xgrab, could be found on
internet) to capture a X's window such as a GRASS's monitor.

    2. high-resolution:
       Under GRASS's shell, use 'p.select' to select a PPM printer (a
pseudo printer), and followed by a 'p.map' to print to a ppm image file.

    Best Regards.

Hi Randy,
  You can use the p.map command to produce a ppm file in your $HOME. This file
can be transformed into other formats with pbm tools, etc. Good luck. Rick
