Yes, that's better. I'm a bit touchy about "M$ things", as M$ has a

window GUIs, long file names, ...

PGM is really kind of a unix thingie - it's "portable gray map". The
conversion tools should work under DOS just fine.
G3 is just the world standard fax format that every single (analog) fax
machine uses... :-)
