Jack,
Check out Adobe Utilities, incl. "Word for Word". An incredible
translation/conversion utility set for wp, db, graphics, & god knows
what else.Very efficient for batch conversions.  The software package
was recently sold to another vendor, and was off the market for a bit, I
don't know status at the moment. You may be able to find someone who has
it in stock, if it's not on the market at present..

Some info at <http://www.istonline.com/p0000046.htm>.  I list below the
list of graphics formats which it handles.
