Hope you won't mind me using your message to pass more info to the OP (I
don't like top posting so I don't have the original message).
As I have suggested in the first response to try with Graphic *VIEWER*
instead of Graphic Editor, because there is some differences between them.
Same with IE which isn't neither Viewer nor Editor but a browser just
happen
to be able to display few formats. More detail
- Most if not all VIEWERS should be able to display (open) just about ALL
extentions, and they won't mind if the extension been changed from one to
other.
- Most if not all EDITOR won't open the graphic file with *wrong*
extension,
because they don't treat all formats the same, and they open to Edit *not*
just for Displaying.
