These have not all been tested, so you may get a message similar to Filter not found if a particular graphics filter is not available. Paintbrush : .bmp .dib .msp .pcx Word: .adi .bmp .cdr .cgm .dib .drw .dxf .gif .hgl .pcd .pct .pcx .pic .plt .tif .tga .wpg .wmf Coreldraw: .bmp .cdr .cgm .dxf .eps .gem .pcc .pct .pcx .pic .pif .plt .tif LView: .bmp .dib .gif .jpg .tga Publisher: .adi .bmp .cdr .cgm .dib .drw .dxf .eps .gif .hgl .pcd .pct .pcx .pic .plt .tga .tif .wmf .wpg Powerpoint: .adi .bmp .cdr .cgm .dib .drw .dxf .eps .gif .hgl .pcd .pct .pcx .pic .plt .tif .tga .wpg .wmf Tim_UK May 28, 2002, 03:49 PM I think ages ago they used to be for plotter type drawings - before colour printer were cheap - used to have some great big hp plotters at work - think we used freelance program to produce them. Didn't know they were still about but you could try if your graphics program will open them. CHR15 May 28, 2002, 03:52 PM Its a HP Graphics Language. You will need to install a filter into Word, Powerpoint etc in order to import it into a document. Some info: This first one has the filter for download. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q196506 http://www.weibullnews.com/contents.htm This one has an example http://www.barringer1.com/graphconvert.htm HTH pijl May 28, 2002, 04:05 PM for so far thx all pijl May 30, 2002, 04:19 AM ?? gooner May 30, 2002, 05:42 AM For your information pijl, you might find the following helpful now and in the future www.filext.com This site has 1000's of file extensions and you can search really really easy for the file extension you want and it will have a description of what it is - hope you find that helpful seracca May 30, 2002, 05:50 AM And if you can't find an answer there, here is a file extension search http://extsearch.com/ I have had to try a couple of different sites in the past to find a more obscure file extension. The one posted by gooner001 is great though, because it often has a link to the program you need for the file. pijl Jun 05, 2002, 05:43 PM yyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssss, it is working now thx alot everyone |
