    There are several ways that you get .gif files of femmview output.

    First, you could choose Edit | Copy off of the main menu of femmview. This
    command copies everything that is being currently displayed to the clipboard
    as a windows metafile. Then fire up Microsoft Paint (the paint program that
    comes with windows). In Paint, choose Edit | Paste off of the main menu.
    It will then render the metafile as a bitmap, which you can save, and
    convert to gif or jpeg or whatever.

    Instead of pasting into Paint, you could paste the metafile into Word. If
    you then save your document as html, all of the graphics get saved as gif
    files.

    Lastly, you could use the brute-force method, which is screen capture.
    Several freely available programs will do screen captures:
    QV 2.5: ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/win95/graphics/qv25.zip
    Capture: ftp://users.aol.com/KISSSeries/capture.zip
