First load the .Zpic in the compositor. Then add a Pixel Parser node.
type in the formula : 1-((1-pixel)*100000)/a1
Now, using the "a1" slider you can narrow down the ZPic around 0 to 30
(the distance in Softimage Units). Type in a greater value if appropriate.
Set the output to 8 or 16-bit if it's float.
You can fine-tune the contrast by adding a Luma Adjust node.
