Javier,
Corel PHOTOPAINT 7 saves any newly created image as .CPT
to assure that no information is lost; that's its
'default' "save". This includes images that were 'pasted'
from the "clipboard". (I don't doubt that 'Uncle Bill'
tried like h... to get that word copyrighted!)
If a .GIF or .JPG shell image is opened, PhotoPaint will save
it as that same type of file automatically,... unless you have
altered its image color properties--e.g., a 24-bit-color
.JPG has been converted to a 'palletted' 8-bit image.
If you convert a 24-bit .JPG to a palletted 8-bit image
(usually with a very noticible loss of color quality and
resolution), you can save it as a .GIF but no longer as
.JPG (unless you 'undo' the change). Likewise, you can
convert a .GIF to .JPG (with NO improvement in color
and resolution) and save it as a .JPG image, but it will
be a bigger file, usually.
I'm with several of the others who use PhotoPaint 7. I
started with PhotoPaint 6 but it lacked the functionality
needed for World Wide Web publishing. My copy came from
a "bargain bin" in a CompUSA store; cost about US$80, some
18 months ago or more.
Hope that answers some questions.
