Wesley, I have just started doing what you are attempting. We've been at it for about a month. Sometimes files came in fine and other times I had the distortion problem. Then last week a light bulb went on above my head. What should the size of the file in TPaint be. So, I pulled several framestore files into AD Pro. They all measured 752 x 480. A few people on this borad also have told me that there is a difference in pixel shape between the Amiga and the PC. I forget which is which, but going from the PC to the Amiga I have to set the horizontal scale to 115% and going the other way I set the scale to 85%. My notes on this are at the office and I may have reversed them so, let me double check. Thirdly, the people at HiJack told me that they have a problem with there program and IFF files. They suggested that I use some other kind of file like PCX and then at the Amiga side convert it to IFF. So, I convert a file on the PC to PCX, the bring it into AD Pro. In AD Pro, I convert it to either a Framestore or IFF file. TPaint will read the IFF file, whereas, the Toaster Switcher requrires the Framestore version. Since I have been setting the correct pixel size (752 x 480) all files have come into the Amiga without any distortion. I only recently had a problem with a file that would not show up on TPaint, but did on the Toaster Switcher. You can read my question that I posted earlier this evening. Fred
