Yes, sure, you can save it. Otherwise, it could not be in a KWord file. B=
ut=20
only in its own format (in a few QT sub-versions) and in SVG. (I do not k=
now=20
the quality of the SVG output.)

However while looking at the code, the trick is to use QPicture::play on =
a=20
QPaintDevice, which could be a generator for another file format. However=
 it=20
seems that you would need to use many public but undocumented features.

I have the felling that you are going to write: "But then we can decode i=
t."=20
Well, perhaps.

Any volunteer for a QPicture to Karbon filter? (As for a mime type for=20
QPicture, it could be for example "image/x-vnd.trolltech.qpicture")

Have a nice day/evening/night!

In fact it is not QT 2.2 but QT 2.1. (the QPicture format has not changed=

between these versions.)
