re: jpg. files Friday, December 16, 2005 at 1:06 am Windows 95 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Jerry (875 messages posted) Hi Helena: The basic graphics program in Win95 is MSPAINT. By default, it only works on BMP files. For reasons known only to Bill Gates, when you install certain of his MS-OFFICE programs, the abilities to work with other file formats (i.e. JPG) is added to MSPAINT. There is a page that purports to show you how to add JPG filters to MSPAINT without installing (buying) MS-OFFICE. I have never been able to make this work myself, but you're willing to try it out for yourself: http://www.geocities.com/one_human/advanced.html An even easier solution is to install a wonderful freeware viewer called IRFANVIEW. Let's you view anything, and works perfectly in Win95: http://www.irfanview.com/ Jerry Written in response to: jpg. files (helena: Tuesday, December 13, 2005 at 2:50 pm) There are presently no replies to this message.
