I would like to be able to make color slides from a Adobe Illustrator 88 v1.9.5 files. Our current set up is a Mac IIcx and a Montage FR1 film recorder. The software to drive the film recorder is ImageQ v3.0 (Provided by Monatge). How do Imake a color slides using this setup? Or more specifically what else do I need? Or will it not really possible with this setup? (i.e. Do I have the wrong film recorder?) The documentation that came with the says that Illustrator files will come out as bitmapped black and white files. (I have not tested this myself.) I would like to be able to create color slides. Thank you in advance for your help. albert smith -- ___________________________________ albert smith, bowler@athena.mit.edu ___________________________________

Your problem is that the Montage FR1 wants to print PICTs and you want to print an EPSF file. Well, just convert the EPSF file to a PICT. I am sure that there are a number of ways to do this, but the one that I am using is Aldus Persuasion 2.0 (I am doing a presentation and am using some EPSF graphics on my slides). Just import the EPSF graphic into Persuasion, then export the slide as a PICT. You can then load it up into ImageQ DA.
