I've gotten copies of the Coopers Graphic Library from an FTP site (files: DISK2100.zip through DISK2117.ZIP in the pcsig directory of KSUVM.KSU.EDU) and found that they come in multiple graphic formats. Of the formats included, I can use Mac Paints .MAC, GEM .IMG, and PC- Paintbrush .PCX files (and possibly Microsoft Paint .MSP). I was wondering if it is preferable to keep the graphics in any one of these formats over another? Which format holds the highest resolution? Similarly, when I scan files, they come in as .TIF files. Is it best to leave them in this format or convert to another? I am using Ventura v2 which converts most types of graphics into IMG or .GEM formats when you import them. I edit drawings with Corel Draw or the Paintbrush program that came with Windows 3. I usually print the files on a Postscript printer, though sometimes on an Epson LQ or an HP IIP. Any ideas would be appreciated. Pete ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Peter P.
