Hi Gareth,

reading image into Mma is not that as straight forward as some advertisement=
 material of Mma suggest.
Well, if you have a Mac available you might also use MovieDigitizer, reading=
 QuickTime data, and then Exprot the data (ASCII list) to your machine.
The Digitizer is availbable from MathSource.
