Hi List, Many thank's for the useful information folk's. CTRL P brings up nice goodies in 1.71UE01.
Glenn, My Virtual screensize is 12000 At the HTML+gif complete page - CTRL P There are several options available: Export as BMP, changing PAGE.BMP to c:\arachne\somedir\micdoc.bmp click on export. Arachne proceeds, but no file created. Leaving it as default PAGE.BMP does create a BMP of the whole document in the download directory. So were half way there. Converting to JPG would be nice to save space on the harddisk, I get Dos error "bad command or file name" when I click on convert. Clicking on Preview get's a red box. Thats a novelty..haven't had a red box for ages. Having a quick look in MIME.CFG there is a pile of what looks like relevent stuff. Do I need to change anything. It looks encouraging as the options available @ CTRL P do what I want but I think I need to re-configure Arachne slightly. Could we have a "dummy's guide to options available at CTRL P" please Glenn ?? Which includes a check list of any other settings that need to be changed in order to get the options to work. Ron, "*" That was useful, I normaly F5 and cycle through, Your way saves my fingers. Generaly: I haven't any DOS imaging software for editing or printing saved images however theres Wangimg lurking in W95 which will import an exported JPG image or a BMP using windows central print services (if I could persuade www.HP.COM to give me a driver for the Deskjet 500 for W95 rather than the mountain of Javascript I got yesterday) Yes I agree in order for Arachne to work with printers drivers would have to be included with the program. My assumption was based on the fact that we have all used the rinky-dink DOS wordprocessors from the mid-late 80's you know the type shipped on a 730K floppy. There was always a modest selection of printers from which to "install", a 9-pin dot matrix, a daisy wheel, etc. There was usualy an option for an HP Deskjet. I assumed this was the same in Arachne. Getting printout of text is one thing, graphics from the web is another, which makes the driver requirement more complecated, so I do see the difficulty. However, although you might not want to print regulary, it does seem logical that you would need the option to make a hard copy of information you have just found. I thank you all for helping me with this. Regards Laurie -- Arachne V1.71;UE01, NON-COMMERCIAL copy, http://arachne.cz/
