- Working in Frame 3.0 on a 486 PC running Windows 3.1.
-
- I import a graphic file(s). The file imports as a graphic, displays, and
- prints. Later it neither displays nor prints. If I try to import it again,
- I get an error message "Can't display some imported graphics." Sometimes if
- this happens and I exit frame and re-enter Frame the problem is resolved,
- sometimes not. It happens even if I have not changed that particular
- graphic in any way. It is unstable, unpredictable, and maddening.
- Particularly because I am not only trying to complete a project, but I have
- received some scanned graphics from a service bureau and I can't be sure
- which of the new ones may be defective (they weren't being saved in proper
- .tif format) and which ones are OK but Frame ain't behaving. Limiting my
- problem to known *good* files, I print it and return to it and it won't
- reappear. Nothing like this is suggested by the documentation.
-
- Does anyone else have this awful experience? Any ways to further diagnose
- it?
-
- Thanking you all in advance....
