I own neochrome 1.0 but I have several PD programs to manipulate picture files in .NEO, .PI? and .TNY formats. I recently purchased firstword plus and really like it as a word processor. I'm especially happy with the built-in spelling checker. One of the main reasons I selected it, aside from the fact that it's compatible with my existing firstword documents, is that it can import and print pictures along with text. It does a real nice job considering I have a nine-pin dot matrix printer. Well, it turns out that it can only import .IMG files. I have no utility to convert .NEO files to .IMG files. There was a desk accessory called snapshot included with firstword plus that can grab part of a screen and create a .IMG file but when NEO is running none of the installed desk accessories are available. That makes it hard to grab parts of .NEO pictures. Has anyone else solved this problem yet? Are there other painting or drawing programs out there that generate .IMG files and can use .NEO files? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Jerry Nowlin (...!ihnp4!ihuxy!nowlin)
