    Jon, I'm not sure I understand what you are saying. I think you imported the Symbol tiff image of the MC-70 into Xara and inserted it into an Office document and you see them rendered differently on your screen.

    I imported the tiff image into Xara Xtreme Pro and opened it in Photoshop 7.0 using the imbedded profile. Here are screen grabs showing them side by side.

(though I'd also been cropping in XPE)
    On a number of occasions now I've had the program shut down due to serious error whilst doing this or similar.
    Working with vector images of a larger file size, using the likes of Mehdi for natural grain etc, has produced no problems what so ever so its not the computer running out of steam..(2gig ram, AMD Athlon dual core), it 'seems' to be (processed) photographs its less happy with.
    I repeated the operation with the photographs using Xtreme-not-pro, all except the level adjustment without any bother.
    It also has to be said I repeated the operation with Pro for one collage and it went fine, which is why I was wondering if anyone else had had any problems rather than assuming it was a buggy problem common to all.
    Irritating but not life threatening.

    Ah, I've just had this crash. I tried to reproduce my steps exactly, but it didn't happen again...at least I've seen it now though.

    I've had it happen a couple more times since mentioning it. I can't make it happen either, it just does sometimes.

    AHA! I've solved it...(Xara are aware of this now BTW).

    behold your bug:

    1. close and load xara
    2. drag a photo onto the document from the clipart gallery
    3. double click to load XPE
    4. click the tick to close XPE
    5. select the LE tool
    6. Select the selector tool
    7. double click photo again to reload XPE
    8. click levels tool to crash xara beyond recovery

    Phew, this one took 30 mins to get. I seem to be on a role tonight with bug finding - this and the annoying progress bar issue are recipe'd at long last.

    Frequently, I get an error message when changing the time (sec) value of a frame or frames when in anim mode.

    I think I mentioned this befire, didn't worry about it, thought it may be a one-off but it happens quite often.
    "Intbel" ... "Can't" is not an option.

    Compliance is futile. Resistance is futile. Just do your own thing an' ignore 'em.

    I think this one (or one very similar if not) has been fixed in the new retail version (612 i think).

    I keep getting, when importing an image to XtremePro, green lines, seemingly segments of text boxes left about the screen.
    There can be several or just one and they have no thickness or line colour in the ordinary sense, though they are editable in that you can stretch / shrink the length and most annoyingly, they are printable so if you don't notice them your printer does.
    Is it just me or has anyone else experienced these phantom text box segments.
    I should add I don't need to have any text boxes or any text in the current document for these to appear.

    Not sure whether this has been mentioned. I was wanting to align some cutting marks (lines)with the page boundary, this means setting one of the X or Y dimensions to zero. XXP would not allow this. Up popped “Sorry, that entry is invalid. Please enter a positive non-zero number in the Width and Height fields.”

    I have been able to successfully align images and cutting marks etc with page boundaries to zero in XX.

    There seems to be another bug: I can't open Xara Xtreme pro Files with Xara Xtreme - it gives me an error.
