Charity,
I think you can convert the graphics in the Gallery to a bmp which
Print Artist might read. I have gotten error messages saying the
graphic was too complex for Print Artist. Which version of Print
Artist do you have? There is a version 3 which is now supported by
Sierra Online.

I have V3.0 and checked the manual. It indicates that PA 3.0 will
work with jpeg files.

Do you know about the PrintArtist Users Club? I don't have the number
handy but you may want to check with 800-555-1212 to see if they are
listed. They are in CA. If you can't find it, check back with me and
I will look through my records to see if I can find it.

I'm having trouble using Corel Gallery 2 and Print Artist. I got some help
from Corel support and now I can actually see the graphics! They walked me
through putting a graphic into a Word document. I asked about compatibility
with Print Artist and was assured that Corel was compatible with any
windows program. When I got off the phone I tried to send a graphic to
Print Artist and got the error message.

The info I have on Print Artist Users Club is
P.O. Box 641697
Los Angeles,CA 90064
(310) 287-2001
1-800-743-1792
FAX (310)287-2347

Please semail if you have any luck! I'd like to share tips with anyone.

After posting my prevous message, I called Print Artist and they tried to
sell me the upgrade to Print Artist 3. They said that I would "probably"
not have any more problems with Corel Gallery 2 compatibility.
I don't know, the woman I spoke with was so snotty at Maxis. Not sure I
want to buy another product even though I like Print Artist.
Oh, well. I'm going to try and learn how to convert the Corel graphics to
bmp and then see what happens.
Anyone know how to accomplish this?
