Bio-Formats export to .mrb (or similar?)

Kenneth Sloan-2
I’m trying to get from .czi to .mrb (helping a colleague)  In parallel I’m inquiring for details on what program needs
to read the result and what formats it can handle.  His original request was for .mrb or DICOM.  We tried the Tudor DICOM tools, and hit a snag (see my other post on that).  Assuming we can’t get the Tudor DICOM tools to work, I’m looking for other routes.

I have no experience with .mrb, so I’m flying blind here.  

Bio-Formats works great for importing the .czi file.  My current problem is exporting to .mrb….or something that can be converted to .mrb.

Help, please.

Hi Kenneth,

I did a little searching for info on MRB. I assume you mean Microsoft's
multiple bitmap format? Very old, apparently not very popular format,
especially these days.

But, I'm guessing it's not very complex. You could likely code a writer for
it, if you can get your hands on this old article:

   .mrb and .shg File Formats, Windows/DOS Developer's Journal, Pete Davis,
       February 1994 (Vol 5, No 4), pp. 37-46.

   https://scholar.google.com/scholar?cluster=1740172181704482318
   http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=189786

But I would definitely suggest using a different file format if at all
possible.

Regards,
Curtis
