Greetings everyone,
I'm looking to write some code that takes a Macintosh picture (as specified
in a picture handle) and then outputs it in a form where it can be read
as RTF by Microsoft Word.
I'm familiar with the conecpt of a picture handle being a sequence of
opcodes. IM recommends that these opcodes be manipulated using stdpicput and
get routines, though I can't get them to work, and even if I could, I can't
make heads or tails of the way in which MS-Word encodes piccies in RTF files.
I have no problems with text formatted for RTF - I have a document that
explains how that works, but it doesn't include info on picture handling.
Any hints, tips or huge chunks of Pascal code would be appreciated.
cheers
