G'day Lisa,
I guess I'll have to try again to download QuickTac as it seems to be
the key to the conversion. I can forsee more transcribers wanting to do
this as tracing an image created with a graphics program (Publisher)
into another graphics program (QuickTac) seems akin to re-inventing the
wheel to me, and I don't think many people will want to give up using
Corel, Illustrator, Photoshop etc. to use QuikTac for creating their
images!!
That said I'll reserve judgement till I try it (if I can ever get it to
run)
BTW Where do I get WinEdit?
Alan

Hi Alan,
TraceMe in TGD-Pro does convert bmps to point graphics. Where you can
open
it then up in QikTac and edit.
At the same time I wonder if TraceMe is meant more for swell graphics?
Depending upon your graphic you might
want to draw directly in QikTac. Using Neal's suggestion of a Wacom
tablet
is a good idea.
Hope you try again with QikTac download. It is a very nice program. That
said you have I believe another option. Since
you have an Everest you have access to WinEdit and the latest version
comes with a graphic tool. With this
you might consider a combined effort - using that for the graphics and
Duxburry for text. WinEdit's new tool converts
the different files. (Earlier versions of WinEdit came with QikTac so
you might have a copy of the program on the program
CD for Everest)
Hopefully there will be soon other graphic programs.
Best,
Lisa
