Dear All,

What I need is a chess program that will save a board position in
BMP format to place into a word prosessor document!!

There are several programs that import the chess position in the form
of a chess font.  That's not what I want.

The problem with that is that if I want to change the size of the board
to large enough to fill a page is doesn't look very good.

Also, if I center the board (text in a chess font) it don't look good.
Try it; you will see what I mean.

What I am looking for is a utility or small program that will create
a chess board where I can use the mouse to move the pieces where I want.
Many programs do that well. 

Then when the pieces are setup as desired the program needs to be able
to save the entire image of the board as a single BMP format image.

(Not as text in a chess font)

Then I, or who ever could conveniently place that image in a word
processor
and create a document with that image in the manner that is familiar 
and convenient for the user.

No messing with fonts, adobe ATM's or any of that stuff.

Yes, I know that I could open a graphic program like print shop pro and
capture that image created by a chess program and then save it as a
BMP image but I shouldn't have to use another program to get the job
done.

I think that saving a board position in BMP format to create the type of
document
I am interested in, is much easer and produces a better image for the
purpose of a chess study handout.

The person that will create the study materials and hand outs is a good
chess player
but not a computer expert. She wants a program that will be easy to use
instead of a program that she has to use another program to get it to
fill HER needs.

If you know of anything that will help let me know.

Thanks for the help, and I mean it.

Steven
