I'm consulting w/someone who has a color graphic edited in
PC PaintBrush. This color file needs to be -- so she sez --
printed on a color postscript file, hence she's looking for
a way to convert the PCX file to a PS file.
Are there any handy utilities that'll do this? Or a way to
gen a PS file from PC PaintBrush? Thanks for any info! - Ross

Install a PostScript printer configured to the FILE: port. 2. Load the image into Paintbrush. Note: your display must have enough resolution to display the picture. I.E. you can't load a 256 color PCX onto a VGA without losing color information. 3. Choose File.Print. And press OK. At the file prompt type in the name you want for the PostScript version. Hope this helps. Ken Sykes Disclaimer: The above opinions are solely my own.
