#### 6.14.2.1 Converting referenced graphics before Mif2Go (best quality)

If you want properly scaled images in Word at the best resolution, use a third-party graphics converter to make matching BMP images for referenced graphics that are in other formats. This gives the best quality.

Note: This is your only choice if you are running Mif2Go via command line.

Although Mif2Go can create BMP images from other formats, that process uses the FrameMaker graphic export filters, which are limited to screen resolution. This is acceptable for documents viewed only on screen, but the images look fuzzy when printed. Preconverting preserves the original resolution. It also allows Mif2Go to include any callouts or other FrameMaker additions as vector elements in the WMF wrapper.

Replacements in project directory

Put the resulting .bmp files in the project directory, and set the following options in the configuration file:

[Graphics]

FilePaths=None

FileNames=Map

Replacements in original directory

As an alternative, put the resulting .bmp files in the same directory with the original graphics, and use the following options instead:

[Graphics]

FilePaths=Retain

FileNames=Map

See §31.3.2.1 Substituting graphics files for RTF.

Map old extension to new

For each of the formats you are converting, specify the before and after formats. For example:

[GraphFiles]

eps=bmp

gif=bmp

See §5.7.2.3 Using third-party graphics converters.
