Nonsense.  20 minutes work by a class of diligent 5th-graders armed
with rulers and color-charts should provide him with ample information
to whip up an implementation of a Cohen-Daubechies-Feauveau wavelet on
the back of an envelope which will be a bitrot-proof mathematical
description of his screen.  This will be trivially understood by
anyone without any need for pointless image processing software, or
indeed a computer screen.
