Thanks Ray, thats good news. I'll try it when I demo.
Thanks, Robert. Quicktime is going to be new to me. Better to know the quirks now. Paul
Thanks for the reply. Good news. Since I don't have the new system yet, I don't know what its limitations are going to be regarding bringing in sequential files. I have used the Avid Media Composer. I have my doubts on ease of use, based strictly on my limited experience…
Does anyone know if DeBabilizer or the Quicktime IPAS successfully converts a series of 756X486 TGA files to high quality Quicktime movie for importing into a Mac-based non-linear editing system such as Media 100 or Avid? We are looking at getting one for post-production, and I want to continue to…
Dave, Thanks for taking the time to reply. Paul
Byron, Thanks for the info. I'm gonna go pick up Photoshop 3.0 and Illustrator 4. They are bundled together right now for a good price. Paul
Thanks David for the info. It seems like good news for Corel. I guess I'm not familiar with the .AI extension. Is it exclusive to the publishing world? Just curious. Paul
Thanks a lot Byron for the tips. I'll give them a try. Paul
Thanks Dave The font formatting problem is THE reason I'm looking. I will try using .AI files for lofting 3d fonts. How do the Corel fonts look brought in as .BMP maps? I need to avoid jaggy stuff; it won't sell. Paul
Thanks, Byron You are obviously happy with Corel. I will probably try it first and I'm also very interested in Photoshop 3.0 for imaging, but I understand that it doesn't come packaged with fonts like Corel does.
Thanks, Gus. I'm impressed with photoshop and I continue to hear good reports and reviews. I'm curious what you use to originate your fonts. Paul
Better paint and fonts Message #146914
I'm searching for a new paint application for use with 3ds. I'm looking at COREL DRAW 5 and PHOTOSHOP 3.0, with emphasis on fonts that can be page-formatted before importing into 3ds. I'm open to other suggestions as well. Paul

My computer crashes upon rendering whenever I use any kind of bitmap background. I have 32 mb and otherwise everything's ok. The only way I can render using a bitmap background is to load it as a layer in VP. I've tried unplugging boards, rendering to null device, turning off…

#VTR equip HELP Message #25338
I agree that Hi-8 is not the ideal format for editing or animation. Even Sony Agrees that the format is not 100% frame accurate. I use S-VHS for aquisition and are happy with its price/performance. However, I have found that it does not hold up for animation. (I have the…
