Subject:Re: PICT to WMF on Mac?? From:Arlen -dot- P -dot- Walker -at- JCI -dot- COM Date:Mon, 22 Jan 1996 05:52:00 -0600
is there any way to convert PICT files to WMF on a Mac? Or PICT on
Mac to WFM on a PC? Shareware packages preferred over full-blown,
if possible ;-)
While we're at it, anyone know an easy way to get PICT on a Mac to
bitmap on a PC? We're using a ridculously long, multi-package
process.
The best way is with Adobe Photoshop. It's an expensive tool that ships free
with most Mac scanners, so perhaps you can use the need for a scanner to pick it
up.
Failing that, take a look at a program called Graphic Converter by Thorsten
Lemke. It includes PICT, WMF and BMP among its several options.
Have fun,
Arlen
