What I would love is a very simple parser that converted this to a
grayscale image file (bmp, png, tif, ...)

Could anyone here help me? (I'm not a programmer :-( )

You say that you are not a programmer.
Maybe you should abandon this project and
do something else. Alternatively,
investigate software to process LIDAR data.
Your problem occurs in that field as well.

Very kind invitation. But no, I just can't abandon
As I said tha data are output of a 3d scanner.
In fact I was asking for the simplest thing.
I just wanted the image with grays as pixel values.

I can easily clean the text file and have just
W
H
g
g
g
g
g

...
and just write the file raw by raw. Thanks.

I guess could be able to write a program in VB after one or two days of
reading the FM, If I had to pay a computer engineer for such a terrible
task, I surely would have to abandon because heritage recording tasks
are not very proffitable. It would almost be like calling NASA for
mounting a LEGO toy for under 2 year old kids.- Hide quoted text -

In that case, you can load raw pixel data using a program like
'ezDICOM'. Just remove all header information, keep only the pixels,
save back to a file. Then load the file as 'raw' format in the
software. It will ask for dimensions, and bytes per pixel.
