Well, I've  RTFM'd until I'm blue in the face, and can't figure out
the answer to this.  So perhaps one of the experts will be good enough
to give some advice.

My problem is this: I'm trying to create a letterhead for use with
WordPerfect 5.1.  I have it all perfect except for a little drawing
which goes in one corner.  There are lots of .wpg files around, but
none of them with this little drawing.  So I have to create a new one.
The book says that I can create a bitmap with PC Paintbrush.  However,
I don't have PC Paintbrush, and certainly don't want to buy it just
to create one little drawing.

THE QUESTION:  We have lots of Macintoshes around here, with paintbrush
programs.  Does anyone know if I can just use THOSE to create a bitmap
file instead?  Or is WP 5.1 particular about it being only from the
PC Paintbrush program?

Thanks for any advice.
