MS-DOS

= SUMMARY =

Paintbrush pictures that have areas filled by a selected pattern appear with a checkerboard effect when imported into Word.

= MORE INFORMATION =

This behavior is by design. Word cannot recognize the Paintbrush patterns and display them as they appear in Paintbrush. A workaround to alleviate some of this distortion is to create a larger image in Paintbrush so the image does not have to blown up so much in Word.
