Hello everyone.
Can anybody help with this ...

Can you export to a field as JPEG and then export the field as PNG?
Maybe therein lies a workaround.

Update:
I can of course make this work by grabbing the relevant portion of

put globalloc (Topleft of field fname) into tl
put globalloc (botright of field fname) into br

exported to PNG fine under 2.2, but one or two went really blocky under

transparent. The font was Verdana, so it doesn't look like a unicode
