Adding clip art

You can incorporate AppleWorks clip art and other types of art in a painting.
Anything you add to a painting becomes an image made of pixels.

Customizing resolution and depth

A new paint document or frame is preset for a resolution of 72 dpi (dots per
inch). The number and range of colors in the preset palette depends on the
monitor you’re using.

You can customize the resolution (number of pixels per inch) and depth (the
number of colors in the color palette) for a paint document or frame using the
Resolution & Depth command in the Format menu. For a complete description
of how to do this, see onscreen Help.
