[8|] Marking new territory?

might be. She seems to get confused when moved to a new indoor location. The weird part, is that most of these incidents happen when she's around the GF unit vs. me. And the GF unit is the far stricter disciplinarian.

Sounds like our girl schnauzer... if we leave her for hours, she gets into mischief. Fortunately, she LIKES her crate (it is strongly associated with dog treats), and will often run into it if she is feeling insecure (i.e. - lightning storm, etc.)

I am having a hell of a time at work with some graphics for a presentation. Anybody know of a freeware, or very cheap program for converting raster to vector graphics?

What file types are you working with??

[niceguy2005]

Actually let me restate that question. I need to resize some graphics without the image degredation usually associated with changinig a raster image. My plan was to convert raster to vector, resize and then convert from vector back to raster to put into a PP presentation.

So,
1. Does anyone know of good converters?
2. Does anyone know of another high quality method?
3. Does anyone know if MS office (Word, PP, ect.) will work with vector graphics formats?

Thanks!

i use IRfanVIEW - it does a good job of enlarging or shrinking - i am not sure how it does it (ie - don't know if it uses vector conversion) - but you might try it (it's freeware).

[niceguy2005]

This looks like a promising tool without needing to convert to a vector format.

IRfanView website:

small program - fast download- works extremely well for resizes (crtl-R)

I know I'm strange, but the tropics just don't appeal to me. I like cool weather.

Well, Mars is cold compared to Earth... [:'(]

Where in NC do you currently reside??

EDIT: Was it near Davidson?

Durham.

[Mynok]

I use IRFanView as well. Does fine by me.
