Inserted Picture Converted w/Visio 3 Contains Horizontal Lines

 * Microsoft Windows 95

SYMPTOMS
When you are using Visio version 3.0, white horizontal lines appear on inserted color pictures. The white lines also appear on the images when printed.

CAUSE
This problem is caused by the way Image Stream version 1.9.11, the graphics filter included with Visio 3.0, converts images for displaying on the screen. The lines appear only on those images that are converted--bitmap (.BMP) and Windows metafile (.WMF) images display and print correctly.

WORKAROUND
Using a graphics utility other than Visio, convert the image from its original format to bitmap (.BMP) or Windows metafile (.WMF) format. Then insert the bitmap image into Visio.

MORE INFORMATION
Visio is manufactured by vendors independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding these products' performance or reliability.
