Hi Randy, It is simple: specify a filename with an extension corresponding to a supported graphics file format.
Certain selected formats (e.g. .gif) use ImageMagick under the covers, but the specified format determines the extension. When you select the wildcard "Image Magick supported format" you need to specify the extension, for this is how ImageMagick learns which of its formats you want. Currently opendx writes a miff using its own procedures and then invokes ImageMagick routines to read it back and convert it. Therefore the .miff . I take it you have not specified any extension to your filename... therefore no conversion. Having coredumped, be sure to erase the .miff or dx will append the next image to it. I would have thought I would have handled this missing-required-extension situation more appropriately, apologies. regards, Pete Randy Polson wrote: > Hello. I'm working with dx4.0.9 on aix4.2.
