      This program uses TrollTech's version of the Qt Library to export BMP,

      The JPEG2000 (JP2) and TIFF formats do not depend on the Qt library.  These formats do not

      For these formats, the writing routines output are streamed lines from the cube, and little
      of the image is held in memory at any one time, therefore increasing the processing speed to
      convert the file.  It is recommended that large images are exported to JP2  or TIFF format.

      In addition, if the cube has Mapping labels, the program will produce a world file for use
      in Arc and/or other GIS packages.  The file will have an extension that uses the first and
      last letters for the image extention and a "w". For example, .tif produces a world file 
      last letters for the image extension and a "w". For example, .tif produces a world file
      extension of .tfw.
