Hi! I just purchased the Standard version and am very pleased with it. I imported one of my simple rosebuds from my .jpg file, but it ends up being saved as a .bmp file. I can't export this file to other places because I want to use the .jpg file for exporting.

How do you change the .bmp file to .jpg file?

I don't see any options for this. I can import .jpg files, but can't export them.

Any comments?



Happy Painter, Joan

I tried to verify your problem but my PCStitch Standard would not load. You can change the format by loading it into MS Paint. Then do a "Save As". Make sure you change the format using the drop-down menu to .jpg.

I got my PCStitch Standard working again (a "repair re-install") and checked. You are correct. That version only exports to a .bmp file. PCStitch Pro exports to .jpg.

Still, the little trick with Paint (and I believe you can do similar with Irfanview) will convert the format for you.

Hi! I tried downloading Irfranview, with no luck. I will try my Paint program. If you can work around this, then Standard is fine with me. It will take a little fooling around.
