Sorry to take so long to get back to you, John. The guy on the PhotoShop end of this mess says all the images we've tried to transfer are 2-colors. One is 613 x 779; the other 525 x 379. Both were scanned (using Deskscan) at a resolution of 300 dpi and saved as PICT images. To get an IFF file, here are the steps he says he follows: 1. He brings the image into PhotoShop, loading it as a PICT file. 2. In the Mode menu, he selects Grayscale. 3. In the File menu, he selects Save As and the IFF option. A dialog box opens giving him a choice of how many bits per pixel. He's been choosing two. To get a HAM file: 1. Once the image is in PhotoShop and he's done the Grayscale thing to it, from the Export menu, he chooses Amiga HAM. He reports that PhotoShop "does something" (he's not sure what; I suppose some sort of conversion) and the file is written to disk. We then transfer the files by modem, using xmodem. PageStream says it doesn't recognize the files. Any guesses as to what we're missing here?
