Unable to Convert Graphic Images to Different File Formats

ID: Q193483


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows 98

SYMPTOM

When you try to use the Imaging for Windows tool in Windows 98 to convert a graphic image file from one format to another, you may be unable to do so.

SUMMARY


CAUSE

This issue can occur because Imaging for Windows supports viewing most common graphic image files, but can save files in only the following formats:

  • Bitmap image (*.bmp)


  • TIFF Document (*.tif)


  • Fax Document (*.awd)



RESOLUTION

If you want to convert graphic image files from one format to another format that Imaging for Windows does not support, obtain a program such as Microsoft Photo Editor, Microsoft Picture It!, Corel Draw, PaintShop Pro, or Adobe Photoshop to do so.
