If you need further vector graphics processing: On your Linux box, try importing the bitmap into Inkscape (or Sodipodi) and use the Trace Bitmap feature to convert it to vector. It should work just fine. Also Adobe Illustrator or Macromedia Flash (Doze & Mac) does pretty much the same thing (if you can afford Illustrator or Flash). -- Cheers, johnny woo ------------------------ Yahoo!
