Problem importing graphics created in Paint Shop Pro..
Hi Andy, If you're going to print, .jpg is one of the poorer graphics formats if you're going to print... So you may want to try a different format or two just from that aspect. Depending on your version of Frame (you don't specify), FM can import a .pdf directly; a .pdf it is a graphic file based on a PostScript description. To get there from PSP, assuming you have some version of Acrobat Distiller on your system, you have a printer instance names something like "Adobe PDF" So from within PSP, you'd select File > Print and specify the name of the Adobe printer instance. Then in FM, just do a File > Import (by reference) at the point you want it inserted. If your version can't import .PDF, I'd try .PNG or a similar format (depending on what the graphic is, of course).

What graphic formats are you using? And have you tried printing from PSP to a .PDF file and importing that?

Problem importing graphics created in Paint Shop Pro..
Hello everyone, I'm editing graphics in PSP and importing them into a table in FM. The problem is that all of the graphics have a green hue or "glow" to them--like they're radioactive :). These same graphics look fine inside PSP and when viewed as thumbnails in Windows Explorer. As a sanity check, I tried editing one of the graphics in IrfanView and it imported perfectly in FM. My best guess is that PSP is adding some background info that FM is mis-interpreting/mis-translating. Anyone ever come across anything like this before? Not sure if this matters, but I'm importing them into an anchored frame (and have tried importing by reference and copying them into the doc). As a sidenote, can anyone recommend any good web sites or whitepapers on working with graphics? Thanks, Andy
