Nice to know.

No, the demo does only differ from the 'real' version in script (and 'do')
length. You have to set the fileType (that's the standard creator and type
code used creating files on the mac) to the creator & type of Freehand or
Canvas docs.
I don't know the creator code of Freehand but the creator code of Canvas is
DOD6, so the code for a JPEG Canvas doc is DAD6JPEG.
put the fileType into storeFileType
export jpeg to file "newfile.jpg"
set the fileType to storeFileType
Succes,
Sjoerd
