I['m working on a Hug quilt for our pastor's wife who's battling cancer. One of the people who wants to contribute has sent me her signatures as an .hpd file. Can anyone help me get this into a language my computer can understand? [I'm guessing this is proprietary for Hewlett Packard?]
not sure where you got the idea it's a linux thing from, the word linux isn't mentioned on that page, it seems to be either "hotdocs pdf document", apparently used by the legal profession. Or as the OP suggested something from HP, or rather implausibly something related to Harry Potter! Linux users tend to be pretty good at making sure something is in a format someone else can understand, they are generally at the top end of computer literacy and aware that other people probably won't be using linux and even if they are, not necessarily the same programs, conversion functions are often built in as well. I think the only option is to get back to the original person and ask her to send it in a format you can use.
just went and had a look/see that (always checking stuff bout puters) and you'd think that you can save files on that program in various formats, including the usual .jpg . maybe when he/she saved it they didnt change the drop down menu to the right file type. seems easy enough to fix that by resaving it with the file type change. then resend it to Kim.
cant get my head around that program and its uses, surely not mainstream but geared for specific industrys/people. must of just been a wee ooops when they missed the file type change on saving.
should then be easily fixed. good luck, jeanne

Thanks all....I did the easy thing after putzing about for a while with various programs, and had them resend the signatures as JPEGs. Worked fine.
