You can insert many popular graphics file formats into your presentation,
either directly or with the use of separate graphics filters. You don't need
a separate filter to insert the following file formats:
Enhanced Metafile (.emf)
Graphics Interchange Format (.gif)
Joint Photographic Experts Group (.jpg)
Portable Network Graphics (.png)
Microsoft Windows Bitmap (.bmp, .rle, .dib)
Windows Metafile (.wmf) graphics
Tagged Image File Format (.TIFF)
The following is information about common file types and filters available.
Computer Graphics Metafile (.cgm)
The Computer Graphics Metafile graphics filter (Cgmimp32.flt) supports
Version 1 of CGM 1992. The filter handles all three encodings and interprets
and supports all elements, and will correctly handle all valid .cgm graphics
files.
The major industry profiles of ATA (Air Transport Association) and CALS
(Continuous Acquisition and Life Cycle Support) are fully supported by the
Computer Graphics Metafile filter. The filter has been certified as
ATA-compliant and CALS-compliant by testing administered by the National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
If you install the filter during Setup, the following files are installed:
Cgmimp32.flt, Cgmimp32.fnt, Cgmimp32.cfg, and Cgmimp32.hlp.
This filter has the following limitation: CGM 1992 Versions 2, 3, and 4 are
not supported.
CorelDRAW (.cdr)
The CorelDRAW graphics filter (Cdrimp32.flt) supports .cdr, .cdt, .cmx, and
..pat files from CorelDRAW 3.0 through 9.0.
This filter has the following limitations:
Object and PostScript texture fills are replaced with solid gray fills.
Gradient fills are split into monocolored stripes.
There is no support for:
CorelDRAW preferences, such as page size and orientation, units, grid, and
guidelines.
Lenses and powerclips.
Pages, layers, and groups.
OLE objects.
Rotated bitmaps.
Vector fills.
Multiarea paragraph text.
FlashPix (.fpx)
The FlashPix graphics filter (Fpx32.flt) allows you to import FlashPix
(FPX), PhotoDraw, and Picture It! (MIX) pictures into a file.
Hanako (.jsh, jah, and .jbh)
The Hanako graphics filter is used for the Japanese language version of
Microsoft Office 2000.
The Hanako graphics filter (Jshimp.flt, Jahimp.flt, and Jbhimp.flt) supports
and converts .jsh, .jah, and .jbh files from Hanako 2.0 and 3.0 to the
Microsoft Windows Metafile format.
The filter has the following limitations:
Image data will be deleted when the files are opened.
Files with large amounts of data might take time to convert, or might not
convert. If this occurs, delete any unnecessary data or objects, or resave
the file as multiple files, and then try reopening the files.
Complex text formatting or image properties that can't be expressed in the
Windows Metafile format will be deleted or simplified when the file is
opened. This might affect the alignment of text or images.
Kodak Photo CD (.pcd)
The Photo CD graphics filter supports Kodak Photo CD Version 3.0. The Photo
CD graphics file format stores multiple images with different resolution and
color depth, and the filter must choose one of the images when you import a
Kodak Photo CD file. When you import a Kodak Photo CD file, an Options dialog
box appears so you can select the resolution, orientation, and color depth of
the image before importing. By default, the filter imports an image with 768
x 512 pixels and 24-bit color depth.
If you install the filter during Setup, the following files are installed:
Pcdimp32.flt and Pcdlib32.dll.
Macintosh PICT (.pct)
The Macintosh PICT graphics filter (Pictim32.flt) is used to import
Macintosh PICT graphics. Rename your Macintosh PICT files with the .pct
extension when you copy them to a computer that uses Microsoft Windows so
that Microsoft Office for Windows can recognize the files as PICT graphics.
For example, if you have a graphics file named Bear on the Macintosh, you
should rename the file to Bear.pct before you insert the file into a file for
Windows.
PC Paintbrush (.pcx)
The PC Paintbrush graphics filter (Pcximp32.flt) supports all versions of
the .pcx file format through ZSoft Version 3.0, with support for 256-color
images. This is the common interchange format used by Microsoft Windows
Paintbrush.
WordPerfect Graphics (.wpg)
Alas...mdi is not supported.
Hope this helps!!!
