Solve : gfx files in PrintArtist? |
|
Answer» Hi all the newer versions will not open gfx files So you have a newer version of Print Artist that won't recognize these files? Quote The people who own it now will not talk about such an old version You have contacted Sierra about this, and they can't help?Hi Yes that is correct, all new versions of Print Artist will not open gfx files and print artist 4 had 14,000 of them. They are like clip art and are in gfx folders of various types. On the print artist FORUM, people are bemoaning the fact that they cannot open the old files. A recent sale on EBay of a print Artist CD had people asking was it a version that OPENED gfx files. It wasn't. The product changed hands but that does not explain why they dropped that particular type. What is frustrating is the block on me making a copy from 95 to XP of version 4. I can get the 2 .exe program files but one SAYS its an on line loading file, but It isn't and the other says it needs command (dos) instructions to install. Sometimes I get the message "a second copy is not allowed". I will have made a back up copy on 95. Best wishes Dave EdwardsHave you tried downloading a program which may be able to read these files? If there is so much demand, no doubt someone has taken the time to write a program which can convert or open them.I've done a fair bit of surfing, and haven't been able to find anything that will solve your problem. But there's a lot of bright, helpful people here; with luck perhaps one of them can offer some sort of solution. Good luck. Hi Raptor & Hopestar, Thanks for trying. I have now got the answer from the Print Artist forum. It had been answered in February this year. http://home.earthlink.net/-pam_ckbks/pabrowser/browser.exe I was told to right click and it downloaded a program browser.exe which INDEED converts glx files to WFM which print artist versions after 4 can import and read. I spent about 4 hours getting all the 16 bit files into a WFM folder .......9523 files in 85 folders. There are as many again in 8 bit. Are they likely to be the same ?
