No problems.  BMP files are pretty easy to read.

I will have a play around with them in the next few
days.

For my purposes - I will still need to compress them
(G3 my pref) just to get them down to the plotter in
under 4 hours.

I don't quite understand the "motivate onesself
after lunch" comment.  Is this "lunch" you refer to
something about 1/2 way through the day that we call
"Rum o'clock"  :D
