Well, I finally finished my first windows code.  It's an import  filter to
be used in accordance with the PageMaker specifications... Using Word for
Windows, Power Point, PageMaker, or any other program that follows the
import specs, it will allow the  user to directly import a GIF file into
the documentation.  But in doing so, I have found out that the PageMaker
specs I've been following was written for use with Windows 2.1, and I can
not seem to import any pictures that have palette informations... (i.e.
all 256-color images come out messy)..  Anyway, does anyone know if there
is a newer  specification out that will allow for the Palette ?  If I use
a dummy program that plays the metafile I pass it through the  DLL, I
can  get my 256 color images perfectly (well, minus the 20 colors I cant use)
