I have recently acquired Electronic Arts Delux Print II and am fairly well pleased with it. But, as with anything else, I would like to expand my borders a bit, so.... What is a good source of clip art that can be used with Deluxe Print for either background images or individual art objects? I have not been able to tell from the documentation what format the various objects and backgrounds are in. There is (of course) reference to DPaint as a source of art-work, but not having that I need external sources of images. Also, is there a way to smooth out the jaggies when the fonts are enlarged? I find that using a fancy font that prints out like a set of building blocks does not give the level of result I would expect from a system that does not rely on character format graphics (like some systems that shall remain nameless here)!! All clues and pointers will be greatly appreciated. Regards, Jerry Whitman - keeper of the FishXref and FishCon

References: <9012061747.AA00261@ucbvax.Berkeley.EDU> wants to know what kind of images can be imported in to DPrint. I have successfully imported "Joes Clip Art" into DPrint. This is large oversized clip art (IFF Format) that I first shrink to size in DPaint and then I save it and bring it into DPrint. With large clip art I have the problem of sometimes running out of memory with only 512K CHIP ram on my machine. DPrint seems to leave memory especially fragmented. I must always reboot after using this program. Any comments on this will be welcomed. Joanne
