The output is PPM, not AEK (that's Andrew Kensler's initials). Use PPM as the extension (similar to PGM, PNM and others http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netpbm_format http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netpbm_format). It's not very common in consumer products (too primitive) but you can open in Gimp, Preview.app, IrfanView, XV and lots of others.
- tnorthcutt 13y agoFWIW I was not able to open it with Preview on OS X 10.8
- gilgoomesh 13y agoEep, my mistake. You're right: it doesn't work. I thought I used to open PPMs with Preview back in Mac OS 10.3 or something else ancient. I could be mistaken on that. Oh well. Everyone has Gimp and LibreOffice installed though, right? They both open the file without problems.
- milesf 13y agoAh. LibreOffice's Drawing program opened it. Thanks :)
- eridius 13y agoGraphic Converter can open PPMs, and that used to ship with every Mac. That's probably what you used.
- ubernostrum 13y agoOr just install ImageMagick, and do 'convert card.ppm card.png'.
- Sharlin 13y agoIf you have IM, just use 'display' to open it directly.
