- I just started using Frame 3.0 for Windows. Whenever I import an
- encapsulated postscript graphic (whether EPSI format or EPS
- format), Frame automatically brings the graphic in as 1" x 1".
- The "Import Image" dialog box doesn't appear, robbing me of the
- chance to tell it to fit the graphic in a selected rectangle.
- Even if I were able to get at this dialog box, I still have a
- basic problem. Namely, how can I get Frame to retain the original
- aspect ratio of the graphic without actually measuring the graphic
- and plugging the numbers into the Properties dialog box? If you
- can think of a way to get around the 1" x 1" funhouse-mirror-effect
- when Frame imports postscript, please let me know.
-
- Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree. These graphics originate in
- Corel Draw 2.01. Perhaps there is a better, more efficient format
- for use with Frame. I choose EPS because I use a postscript printer.
