When you import a 256 color bitmapped image into Harvard Draw you will only see it in 16 colors. It will print properly. This is because Harvard Draw takes about 150 colors just to display the palette. This robs most of the colors from windows when your using a 256 color board. The only way to get around this so you could see the bitmapped colors in Harvard Draw would be to upgrade the video board so it will support more than 256 colors. With some boards you can purchase a chip that plugs into the board to upgrade it to over 32, 000 colors. Dennis Schmit SPC SysOp (Harvard Draw)
