Oh dear; yet another chance to display my ignorance. I found TransFSI 
in OP.Filters but how do I install it? (I have looked again in the 
Manual).

I am most grateful to  you, David, and all the others for your 
suggestions. For any who may be interested the story is:

For my wife's approaching 80th birthday, my daughter suggested a sort 
of "This is Your Life" type of book. Yesterday, quite by chance I came 
across a magazine page 52 years old, so of pretty poor quality, with a 
picture of our African pupils leaving school with their books balanced 
on their heads. I scanned it (on the PC) but didn't notice that it 
saved as a GIF. (The pamphlet is no longer available for a rescan). It 
displays on RO using FYEO. The only other programme which would look 
at it is ImageFS. The file from this is really not usable in OP.
