I actually didn't know that THAT would work. :) > this seems to work IFF the original jpeg is < 150 pixels wide and > even then the eventual pilot version doesn't look like hi-res I think that the problem you're seeing is that infact images won't work if they're over a certain size (not length/width, but file size) I've experimented with a couple options in the past in with minimal success, havn't had time to put any decent effort into it. It basically boils down to a limitation of the hotsync protocol. > - any way to change the 150 pixel width maximum? That you can do... edit your .pluckerrc and set maxwidth = 300 300 is good for a 320 wide device. > - will plucker accept somwthing beside .pnm with higher bits/pixel? the viewer should accept jpg, gif, png, etc... but the viewer actually reads it in palm's own format. An ideal solution to this problem is to actually get the viewer to understand jpegs... maybe one day.. > - any other good advice for handling images? Lower your depth. An image that's 300x200x4 has a better chance chance of making it under the 64k limit (from the hotsync protocol) than a 300x200x16. > P.S. referencing .jpg or .jpeg files < 150 pixels wide seems to generate > netpbm errors whereas .pnm files work. What am I doing wrong with that? what are the error messages?.. turn on -V 2 on the parser. -- Adam McDaniel Array.org Calgary, AB, Canada _______________________________________________ plucker-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-list
