rinting an extra blank page query I believe you may need to set your lower page margin above 0.6 Most printers have a paper 'grab' space on the lower margin. On my Epson Stylus Color 880 it is 2cm! If your settings encroach on the printers own margins you will be in effect tiling each picture. hope this helps, James.

Created a new image, 3000 x 3000 pixels, 8 bit depth (all white). Saved it as TIFF with no compression and then with LZW with prediction (according to the options panel.) Both 5.4 and 5.5 saved with no compression almost instantly, producing file sizes of 8.6 Meg (about what I'd expect for 9 megapixels with 1 byte per pixel). Saving with compression, 5.4 took about one second, 5.5 took about 30 seconds. Both produced highly compressed file sizes of 39.1 kilobyte. I then opened a scanned image, saved with and without LZW. They both took a fraction of a second with no compression, creatintg 18.7 Meg files. Compressing, 5.5 took about 65 seconds, while 5.4 took only a couple of seconds, both creating files compressed to 13.1 Meg. If 5.4 is saving the file too fast, I won't complain, but I still don't know why 5.5 is no where near as fast... --- In gcmac@yahoogroups.com, Thorsten Lemke <lemkesoft@t...> wrote: > Hello, > > 1-2 seconds is only possible with no compression or packbits.

Just curious to see if that works... I checked to see if your printer is supported by Gimp-print and it is not officially listed but is reported as working with Gimp-print/CUPS according to linuxprinting.org Gimp-print and CUPS would give you a different driver to try. Gimp-print website is here: http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php3 I'd also try using the same margins you are printing in GC with TextEdit/Word/etc..to see if the same problem happens. One more idea, ask the person you bought it from if blank pages were a common issue for them. No solutions - just trying to narrow it down more. Frustrating!

MacDraw Pro would not open in Classic, but it did open when I restarted in OS9.2.2. I opened an old McDraw Pro graphic file and copied it to the clipboard. Then I opened GraphicConverter 5.1 Classic, still in OS9.2.2, and pasted the clipboard to a new file. I then saved the graphic as JPEG and went back to OS10.3.8, where double clicking on the saved file opened GraphicConverter 5.4, which displayed the graphic. Everything was there as drawn, but some fonts were substituted. Of course, this method requires McDraw Pro as a working application.

I'm talking off the top of my head here, but aren't Claris Draw and MacDrawPro vector programs? Opening vector files in any raster program (GraphicConverter, Photoshop, whatever) renders them essentially non-editable and nullifies their main advantage: near infinite scalability. If you need to protect these attributes in your files, I'd suggest you try opening them in a vector drawing program, such as Freehand or Illustrator. Or, if these apps are not available to you, perhaps they would open in AppleWorks? I have no such files on hand to test, but ClarisWorks did evolve into AppleWorks, so it seems reasonable that at least the Claris Draw files would open. Other than printing, you don't indicate the use to which you want to put these files. If medium quality printouts are your only goal, or if you are using the files as web graphics or PowerPoint slides, the solution suggested by Al Treder should work well.

Re: Digest Number 671
Attachments rinting an extra blank page query I believe you may need to set your lower page margin above 0.6 Most printers have a paper 'grab' space on the lower margin. On my Epson Stylus Color 880 it is 2cm! If your settings encroach on the printers own margins you will be in effect tiling each picture. hope this helps, James.

Created a new image, 3000 x 3000 pixels, 8 bit depth (all white). Saved it as TIFF with no compression and then with LZW with prediction (according to the options panel.) Both 5.4 and 5.5 saved with no compression almost instantly, producing file sizes of 8.6 Meg (about what I'd expect for 9 megapixels with 1 byte per pixel). Saving with compression, 5.4 took about one second, 5.5 took about 30 seconds. Both produced highly compressed file sizes of 39.1 kilobyte. I then opened a scanned image, saved with and without LZW. They both took a fraction of a second with no compression, creatintg 18.7 Meg files. Compressing, 5.5 took about 65 seconds, while 5.4 took only a couple of seconds, both creating files compressed to 13.1 Meg. If 5.4 is saving the file too fast, I won't complain, but I still don't know why 5.5 is no where near as fast... --- In gcmac@yahoogroups.com, Thorsten Lemke <lemkesoft@t...> wrote: > Hello, > > 1-2 seconds is only possible with no compression or packbits.

Just curious to see if that works... I checked to see if your printer is supported by Gimp-print and it is not officially listed but is reported as working with Gimp-print/CUPS according to linuxprinting.org Gimp-print and CUPS would give you a different driver to try. Gimp-print website is here: http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php3 I'd also try using the same margins you are printing in GC with TextEdit/Word/etc..to see if the same problem happens. One more idea, ask the person you bought it from if blank pages were a common issue for them. No solutions - just trying to narrow it down more. Frustrating!

MacDraw Pro would not open in Classic, but it did open when I restarted in OS9.2.2. I opened an old McDraw Pro graphic file and copied it to the clipboard. Then I opened GraphicConverter 5.1 Classic, still in OS9.2.2, and pasted the clipboard to a new file. I then saved the graphic as JPEG and went back to OS10.3.8, where double clicking on the saved file opened GraphicConverter 5.4, which displayed the graphic. Everything was there as drawn, but some fonts were substituted. Of course, this method requires McDraw Pro as a working application. Hope it works for you. -- Al Treder On Mar 16, 2005, at 20:26, Richard D. Foley wrote: > I have at least 250 Claris Draw and MacDrawPro documents that I need to > convert.

I'm talking off the top of my head here, but aren't Claris Draw and MacDrawPro vector programs? Opening vector files in any raster program (GraphicConverter, Photoshop, whatever) renders them essentially non-editable and nullifies their main advantage: near infinite scalability. If you need to protect these attributes in your files, I'd suggest you try opening them in a vector drawing program, such as Freehand or Illustrator. Or, if these apps are not available to you, perhaps they would open in AppleWorks? I have no such files on hand to test, but ClarisWorks did evolve into AppleWorks, so it seems reasonable that at least the Claris Draw files would open. Other than printing, you don't indicate the use to which you want to put these files. If medium quality printouts are your only goal, or if you are using the files as web graphics or PowerPoint slides, the solution suggested by Al Treder should work well.

rinting an extra blank page query I believe you may need to set your lower page margin above 0.6 Most printers have a paper 'grab' space on the lower margin. On my Epson Stylus Color 880 it is 2cm! If your settings encroach on the printers own margins you will be in effect tiling each picture. hope this helps, James.

Created a new image, 3000 x 3000 pixels, 8 bit depth (all white). Saved it as TIFF with no compression and then with LZW with prediction (according to the options panel.) Both 5.4 and 5.5 saved with no compression almost instantly, producing file sizes of 8.6 Meg (about what I'd expect for 9 megapixels with 1 byte per pixel). Saving with compression, 5.4 took about one second, 5.5 took about 30 seconds. Both produced highly compressed file sizes of 39.1 kilobyte. I then opened a scanned image, saved with and without LZW. They both took a fraction of a second with no compression, creatintg 18.7 Meg files. Compressing, 5.5 took about 65 seconds, while 5.4 took only a couple of seconds, both creating files compressed to 13.1 Meg. If 5.4 is saving the file too fast, I won't complain, but I still don't know why 5.5 is no where near as fast... --- In gcmac@yahoogroups.com, Thorsten Lemke <lemkesoft@t...> wrote: > Hello, > > 1-2 seconds is only possible with no compression or packbits.

Just curious to see if that works... I checked to see if your printer is supported by Gimp-print and it is not officially listed but is reported as working with Gimp-print/CUPS according to linuxprinting.org Gimp-print and CUPS would give you a different driver to try. Gimp-print website is here: http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php3 I'd also try using the same margins you are printing in GC with TextEdit/Word/etc..to see if the same problem happens. One more idea, ask the person you bought it from if blank pages were a common issue for them. No solutions - just trying to narrow it down more. Frustrating!

MacDraw Pro would not open in Classic, but it did open when I restarted in OS9.2.2. I opened an old McDraw Pro graphic file and copied it to the clipboard. Then I opened GraphicConverter 5.1 Classic, still in OS9.2.2, and pasted the clipboard to a new file. I then saved the graphic as JPEG and went back to OS10.3.8, where double clicking on the saved file opened GraphicConverter 5.4, which displayed the graphic. Everything was there as drawn, but some fonts were substituted. Of course, this method requires McDraw Pro as a working application. Hope it works for you. -- Al Treder On Mar 16, 2005, at 20:26, Richard D. Foley wrote: > I have at least 250 Claris Draw and MacDrawPro documents that I need to > convert.

One way to do this is Shift-Control-Command-4. The cursor is then used to outline the part of the screen you want to save. This puts a screen shot on the clipboard. Then open GC and select File/New/Image with Clipboard (Comd-J) You can then save it in whatever format you want. Dave Wightman On Mar 16, 2005, at 8:26 PM, Richard D.

I'm talking off the top of my head here, but aren't Claris Draw and MacDrawPro vector programs? Opening vector files in any raster program (GraphicConverter, Photoshop, whatever) renders them essentially non-editable and nullifies their main advantage: near infinite scalability. If you need to protect these attributes in your files, I'd suggest you try opening them in a vector drawing program, such as Freehand or Illustrator. Or, if these apps are not available to you, perhaps they would open in AppleWorks? I have no such files on hand to test, but ClarisWorks did evolve into AppleWorks, so it seems reasonable that at least the Claris Draw files would open. Other than printing, you don't indicate the use to which you want to put these files. If medium quality printouts are your only goal, or if you are using the files as web graphics or PowerPoint slides, the solution suggested by Al Treder should work well.

I just printed a picture with all margins of 3.60 inches and Reduce/enlarge to fit page. The printout was at the maximum size (margins of less that 0.5 inches), with a blank page. Interesting. Thanks, will play with this some more. -- Bob Poland - Fort Collins, CO http://www.ibrb.org/
