Perhaps it would be also of value to include information for those poor
people using SCRIPT/DCF. We here in Vienna use it even for most exotic
projects like diacritics in early German texts, Sanskrit romanization,
early orthodox hymns of East Europe. SCRIPT-L is more concerned with
technical matters independent of applications in the humanities.

A request for information about converting raster images to vector
(specifically AutoCAD) images was recently posted. An article in the
July, 1989, issue of CADalyst magazine ("Converting Paper to CAD" by
David Cohn) compared 5 programs to do that. In addition, David Cohn can
be reached on CompuServe for further comment. He is an editor (I think)
at CADalyst and an architect.
