Has anyone worked with Georeferenced Topographical Maps of Canada?

I need to use the 1:50000 scale Canadian Topographical Maps. =20

I ordered the data from the vendor Environment Canada recommended.=20

They sent the scanned 1:50000 and 1:250000 maps I wanted, but they are=20

.PNG files with associated .CAL files for georefferencing. These files =
are=20

supposed to be used only with the TOURATECH-TTQV software.

With my data, QVN_Canada also sent me a trial copy of TOURATECH-QV.

=20

What I need is the equivalent of a GeoTIFF. My target platform is =
ArcGIS
(8.x or 9)

=20

=20

Does anyone know how to translate the .CAL files to something usable =
for
ArcGIS?

=20

If not I will georeference the .PNG images one at a time, as the =
coordinates

are printed on the 4 corners each map.

=20

Thanks

Andy
