I'm having a devil of a time getting Ventura 1.1 (running on an IT, not mine,
a friends) to accept bitmap images.  It claims that it takes PC-Paintbrush
files.  It will accept certain PC-Paintbrush files, and complains about others,
prints none of them, dies miserable on some of them.  The images are all
small (96x96 pixels).  Any suggestions?  Does anyone have a C program (any
language would be fine), which converts bitmaps (raw or half-baked) into
any format which Ventura Publisher finds acceptable?

Thanks!
