A bmp file is an image [bit map] file. because it is an image jfw can not
read them. in order to access the text you can perform OCR on them but my
suggestion is to contact the people who are doing the
scanning and ask them to do the OCR and proof them for you.

Subject: help needed
Hello to all on the list. I am in the process of making some changes to the
way that I get assignments here at Ferris State University. Instead of
getting them on tape, I'm exploring the possibility of all handouts and
forms being sent directly to me via E-mail as attachments. In some cases
this has worked successfully, but there is one instructor who is sending
materials to supportive services to be scanned and eventually sent to me via
E-mail as attachments.
I just have a question regarding files with a BMP extention. Will BMP
files work with MS Word? I've got MS Word-97, but I'm not sure about BMP
files. What is that extention? Any help would be appreciated, and thanks
in advance.
