Hello,

Can anybody tell me if it is possible to use Macintosh PICT files
(about MacDraw II format) on an MS-DOS PC ?  Ideal would be if it
is possible to edit these pictures and then send them back to the
Mac, but if this is impossible, it would be sufficient to be able
to read these pictures into a DTP package.

I heard that Ventura has a function to read in these pictures. Is
it possible that Ventura converts the pics to another format that
can be used by graphics editors on the PC?

Please help ...

Thanks in advance, Remco
