It was the 8-bit (256 color) PNG files that were a problem in FrameMaker.
They would add all 256 colors to the document color palette, which could be
annoying. It seems as though most graphics programs no longer have an 8-bit
option when saving png, 24-bit only these days, which do not mess with th

Why is SVG better than WMF or EMF? I don't like embedding Visio files,
so I save as WMF and insert the WMF. It seems to work fine and keeps the
lines perfectly sharp (since WMF is partially a vector format.)
Is there a good reason to switch to SVG?

The cloudy artifacts that JPG puts around text may not be noticeable if
you save the JPG at highest quality, but the more compression you use,
