Importing a Scrap from a DOS Application When you import from WordPerfect 5.0 into Scrapbook, the font size changes from 12 pt. to 8 pt. You can import images from other DOS applications to a scrapbook. An item is imported when it is transferred from another application into an Ensemble application. For example, you can import text or images that are in TIFF, PCX, or WordPerfect formats to your scrapbook. "To import an item from another application: 1. Open the scrapbook in which you want to place the image. 2. Locate the page that you want to follow the imported page. 3. Choose Import Scrap from the File menu. The Import Scrap dialog box appears and shows a list of filenames. Your system will ask for the diskette containing the import libraries. Select the file you want to import. Click Import to select the file. Select the format of the imported file. Click here to import the file. Look at the last three letters of the file name to determine what type of file format it has. This will tell you which format to choose from the Import Scrap dialog box. If the file is very large, it could take several minutes to import. You cannot interrupt this process. 4. Select the name of the file you want to import, and click on Import. 5. Insert Diskette 2, which contains the Import/Export libraries.
