Keywords: PICT QuickDraw MacDraw Message-ID: <971@ccnysci.UUCP> Date: 9 Nov 88 12:14:38 GMT References: Reply-To: cpyang@ccnysci.UUCP (Chao Ping Yang) Organization: City College of New York Lines: 9 I have the same problem. I can save a picture to a file, but I have trouble telling MacDraw the origin and bounding box and all that. In fact, the whole header(512b) is ignored even though I have put the 5th and 6th byte to be MD, but file type PICT. Dose anybody have a more detailed definition of the PICT file format, sinc some of the quantities are never defined in both Inside Mac V. 5 and Tech Note #27, and those are the only two places that I see the PICT format mentioned. ==Chaoping
