I'm trying to use a custom stamp for eDrawings and it isextremely buggy. The images aren't scaled properly and they haveextra lines in them. What's also odd is that I can take an existing stamp, save it as adifferent name, and it will show the same issues (scaling problem). This issues occur with .png files.
