I DLed the covers (front and back) for a CD case for my SPW@W. Yes, it's on the HD but people are always asking for a copy so I keep an up to date (all Upgrades) version to make copies from. When I DLed them the CD covers are .png files. I have CoverPro which sizes and prints them but it only reads .jpg. .jpeg, .bmp and .gif files. How can I convert the .png file to one of these? Oddly the CD cover is a .jpg file. ------------------ Ximinez: NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition!

You need to use a drawing programme that will allow you to IMPORT the file as a .png (e.g., photoshop, photopaint). You then save as .jpg.

Just like kao16 says - open them up (I did it in PSP7) in a graphics program then save it as .jpg. You can download free trial copies of programs like Paint Shop Pro if you need to.

Irfanview is freeware and it looks like it can open any graphics file in existance and save most of the popular formats. Has some nice editing tools too.
