Posting "Does not work" without explanation does not help you or anyone. If a command does not work for you, please show the exact circumstances you used it, and the exact error or malfunction you received. Do not paraphrase errors, or post the text as links, images, or attachments if you can avoid it: Paste the exact message, in code tags, like [code] text [/code] or by selecting the text and using the button.
Thank you.

We also need to know more about the data files. When people say "EBCDIC" they often mean "packed decimal" which is a completely different problem.
Long story short, if you can't post a representative sample of the data - preferably fed through
hexdump -C < file.dat first - we can't help you.

NAME
img-xpm - Img, X Windows Pixmap Format (xpm)
SYNOPSIS
package require Tk
package require img::xpm ?1.4?
image create photo ?name? ?options?
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
The package img::xpm is a sub-package of Img. It can be loaded as a part of the complete Img support, via package require Img, or on its
own, via package require img::xpm.
Like all packages of Img it does not provide new commands, but extends the existing Tk command image so that it supports files containing
raster images in the X Windows Pixmap Format (xpm). More specifically img::xpm extends Tk's photo image type.
The name of the new format handler is xpm. This handler does not provide additional configuration options.
All of the above means that in a call like
image create photo ?name? ?options?
[1] Image data in xpm format (options -data and -file) is detected automatically.
[2] The format name xpm is recognized by the option -format.
