Okay, so how does one open a tar.bz2 file ?

7-Zip fully supports BZip2 files. BZip2 module in 7-Zip is based on
sources of original program that supports bz2 files - bzip2. The home
page of original bzip2 can be found at http://www.muraroa.demon.co.uk.

The extraction leads to a single file of 75 438 080 bytes.
I guess this png clipart archive only works with abiword and doesn't
actually contain bunches of individual .png files, as some of us
expected.

At least not until you extract them from the resulting:

abiword_clipart-2.2.7-2.tar

I found that AbiWord had quite a little bit of trouble printing
various image formats, and simply stalled out when there was
transparency involved. I had the latest stable Imagemagick installed,
librsvg-2.9.5, Gimp and all image libraries I could think of...

However, when using "flattened" PNG
files, AbiWord printed great. As a matter of fact, it would
scale even lineart wonderfully for printing. That is to say,
even single-pixel lines, resized way down, would still
look like clean, single-pixel lines. (As if editing an SVG.)

Hence, it seemed worthwhile to make a collection of clipart,
consisting of non-transparent PNGs. I scoured the Web looking
for Public Domain clipart and found OpenClipart.org and
others -- making sure the images were all Public Domain.

The PNGs in OpenClipart were not of suitable quality, so I
used rsvg to convert the original SVGs to PNGs, flattened them,
then sorted them. I also did a lot of cropping and resizing
suitable for a word-processor rather than an image-editing program.

I collected much more clipart from several other sources,
making sure, as much as I could, that all images were in
the Public Domain (see DISCLAIMER.) I used nothing that I had any
reason whatsoever to doubt were PD.

If you feel the collection is worthwhile and want to help
with submissions, ideas for changes/guidelines... anything,
then contact me at:

I finally got the .png files. Thank you Mel.

Open with 7zip. You need to run it twice. Extract once will leave
you with a tar file (*.tar), extract again will give full contents.
