I'm considering purchasing Publish It! from Timeworks. I have a logo
scanned in Encapsulated Postscript, but Timeworks says their program
reads only PCX and IMG files. I'm not familiar with these formats.
What programs create/manipulate such files? Is there a reasonable
way to convert EPS to one of these?
I'd appreciate any information on Publish It! as well.

If you use a conversion program such as Hijaak you can convert just about any graphics format to PCX. Hijaak is recommended no matter what you get. It expands the range of clip art you can buy. I use Publish-It. It is a very nice compromise between the expensive but more powerful DTP programs such as Pagemaker and the lower price but less powerful programs. I have notice a slight problem with my Epson printer. Every once in a while a line of text will get squeezed down requiring quite a lot of work to fix and sometimes I just gave up. It is rare and if you can get by with less than letter perfect print then it is a minor problem.
