The problem (we have the same 'problem' with many of our MacDraw pictures here, too) is that the drawings are printed with LW 50% reduction. Trying to shrink these types of drawings to half size in MacWrite (or Word) has always produced less than optimal results -- mostly because the text doesn't shrink with it. Also, isn't there a limit on the size of PICT you can safely paste? These things are large, one of the TN176 drawings is 2400 objects, taking about 35% of memory (MD's estimate) on my 512KE (Sys 3.2). +----------------+ ! II CCCCCC ! Jim Cathey ! II SSSSCC !
