[ome-users] Convert Ariol files (file extension cat)

[Andreas Heindl]

Dear list,

I'm puzzled of how to convert slides acquired with Ariol[1] and stored as a *.cat file can be converted to a more portable file format such as png or jpg. Unfortunately Bio-formats seems not to support this type of file and google didn't retrieve possible solutions. Any hints? 
I also got an example files (628MB). 
Greetings,
Andreas Heindl
