More info?)
Jan, Bob,
Firstly Jan I will answer your question, the PSP 9.0 mind games thing. I
don't know how familiar you are with digital imaging but the images often
contain information about how they were produced. I know it's called exif
with jpgs, but I'm not sure if the terms also applied to TIFFS. Anyway, if
you're running XP right click one of your pictures, click properties,
summary and advanced. Hey presto, have a look at mine and guess what I used.
As to the image that you and Bob seem to like, I produced it in the
following manner. I installed a virtual printer which performs a "print to
TIFF/JPG/BMP" function. When I tell it to print I specify lots of DPI for
quality. Once I have the output graphics file it's a simple case of doing a
quick crop to remove the unwanted info and Bobs your uncle.
If you or Bob (Not your uncle) want any further info on the last paragraph
please can you email me directly.
Regards
Geoff
