The programs fromtiff and fromtarga will work fine to convert from
AT&T Targa (Vista) images or TIFF images, both of which I think
Photoshop can output. These programs should be in /usr/sbin,
otherwise you can try ~4Dgifts/iristools/imgtools.

If both of these options fail, you can fall back on netpbm, available
from various ftp sites, and then try compiling the (humongous) thing.
I recommend trying fromtarga, personally, because netpbm is a pain in
the butt to compile on SGs, and fromtiff may or may not support
compressed TIFF files (which I think it does, try the man pages).
