Yeah.  I've seen color images in Word 3.02.  Color fonts were
posted awhile back.  The description text used color pictures.
They work.  Canvas 2.0 exports color pictures to Word, as i
recall.  Now if only i had a 300 dpi 24 bit color printer (looks
nice on the screen).  I do print halftone pictures from within
Word (to a laser printer), but the real work is done by Digital
Darkroom or Canvas.
