ProPage and TIFs
Message #165783
Does anyone know of a fix for ProPage's loading a TIF image in reverse (negative) palette? I called them a few months ago and they (Gold Disk, remember?) said the 4.1 patch was supposed to fix the problem. I've had the 4.1 patch for a long time, and it didn't…
Spectrum is running
Message #89114
Hooray! The ver. 6.2 software did the trick! I now have EGS menus that actually have programs behind them – and my workbench is running happily on the Compaq SVGA! Thanks for your help and patience – I'm sure I'll be back.
When I select the LEGS from Screenmode my workbench screen scrambles (on the 1084) – a couple of the settings blank the screen entirely and a couple just cause garbage to appear. The SVGA screen remains unaffected. I have not altered the icon because I have not found a setting…
#EGS-still trying
Message #88982
Several LEGS are listed in the SCREENMODE program but when I select one it doesn't work with WORKBENCH (on the 1084) – the EGS logo just sits happily on the Compaq SVGA. The real problem here is that I can't get any of the EGS utility programs to open a…
#still trying on EGS
Message #88946
I removed some RAM as you reco'd and now have an image on the Compaq SVGA monitor – a blue EGS logo. When I try to access the EGS programs (i.e. Display Adjust or others) nothing shows up on either monitor in my current 2-monitor setup. The same was true…
bad Spectrum?
Message #88692
Thanks for the quick response – I'll try your recommendation.
#Bad Spectrum board?
Message #88620
I have installed a GVP spectrum in an A2000 HD with GVP 030 and AMAX IV. The software says "only one LEG found" or something like that – I am getting no video whatsoever on a new Compaq SVGA. The GVP utility shows the board as "?" – and says…
#PPage 4.1 corrupt
Message #109028
Phillip: I have just received my PPage 4.1 upgrade (on a re-cycled disk) and it has bad sectors and read errors. As a result, I will now have to re-install PPage 4.0 over the now-corrupted program. This is not how I had hoped to spend the afternoon. Will you please…
#PPage 4.0 & TIF
Message #106996
I'm importing TIFs from Adobe Photoshop (after using it to do some B&W retouchig) – the images are coming into PPage reversed. i.e. the whites are black, backwards thru the entire grayscale to the hilites. I have not gotte thru at GDisk BBS or tech support as yet – anybody…
Joe: I haven't heard anything (haven't called them, either) – Raymond said he wd he would notify both of us when he had a solution. On booting for the 68000 – you'll need to have a bootable disk ready with the appropriate stuff in Devs etc. for mounting the harddrive.…
Joe: I called ReadySoft minutes after you spoke with Raymond – I have finally gotten my A2000 to format a MAC disk!!!! I booted up under the old 68000 – completely bypassing the accelerator board and the 68030 – and used MAC's Disk Tools disk to boot the MAC side.…
#AMAX and disk problems
Message #96348
Joe: I am running a GVP 68030 at 30 MHz with a mix of 16 and 32-bit memory. I am using (or trying to use) the AMAXII+ board in an A2000HD – using standard 800K Commodore disk drives. I am now running ver. 2.56 of the AMAX software – version…
Joe: Thanks for your reply – I have been on the phone again with ReadySoft- their recommendation being to copy the system folder off and try to run it on a Mac. It began life on a MAC and is still happily cooking along on a MAC, as far as…
Erik: I am using AMAXII+ with standard 800K Amiga drives. The system and drives seem to work fine with MAC disks from other sources – the icons are displayed, etc. – and the system seems to work fine with the AMAX partition I have installed on my harddisk and formatted…
I have just installed AMAXII and am having a problem with the MAC initiallizing disks. It goes thru all the motions but doesn't create an icon for the disk. With a MAC, that seems to make the disk totally inaccessible. When I reload this disk, the MAC says it's damaged…
#Driver for HPScanner?
Message #51866
I have seen several HP scanners offered at attractive prices — all for the MAC. Many people seem to think ASDG has an AMiga driver that will work with these. True? Does it require AMAX or bridgeboard? What's the story? Any info will be appreciated.
HP scanners
Message #87064
I keep seeing great prices on HP Scanners (Color & BW) for the MAC – does anyone know if there are drivers etc. to use these scanners with A2000? Has anyone tried using the HP scanners?
#Motorola TIFF format
Message #48299
Ben – The TIFF loader works fine with Intel format but not with Motorola. I can send a Motorola monochrome TIFF (from Migraph – hand scanner) if it will be of any help. The main file I want to convert is a 256-level B&W TIFF. If you want me to…
#TIFF module
Message #48251
Ben – I will download the TIFF module and try it. Many thanks for the quick repsonse.
#TIFF module for IM
Message #48135
Is anything being done to create a TIFF loader for Imagemaster – PI or otherwise? I recently ordered IM – v 9/16 – and was surprised to find it did not have a TIFF module.
