Neal,
I suggest that you get a copy of GraphicConverter. It's $30 or $35, as
I recall, and translates from damned near any format to damned near any
other one ... and allows a lot of image manipulation. You'll have to
experiment with the dpi setting. It depends on the pict you're
bringing in and on the application yo intend for it. If your goal is
to optimize for screen viewing, you may want to go with 72 or so, for
good prints you'll probably want at least double that density.
What kind of stuff do you do with VW10? I'm an occasional user, now of
VW11.
