Hi. I'm looking to run an add in AC magazine. My original plan was to catch the May issue (March 15 is the deadline), but because I have been draggin my a__, looks like June. I do not have the facilities for producing camera ready art work. At best, I could produce the graphics with Deluxe Paint, send it off to be printed, superimpose my ad onto it, and produce a positive. Does anyone know of a better/easier way? Jeff

These two programs would allow you to create your own structured artwork so that you don't have to superimpose anything (in the sense used above). This would allow you to send postscript files, color separations, or whatever you need to the publishers. At the least, you could create your artwork in DeluxPaint and use the autotrace facilities of ProDraw to convert it to a structured drawing, then add all the other stuff you need. Matt Pierce
