I'm creating some simple Mathematica animations by using a Do[] loop to create 20 successive Plot[]s, which I need to convert to QuickTime movies (on a Mac iBook, Mathematica 4.2, OS 9.2).. Selecting the Graphics cells and using the menu commands "Edit>>Save As QuickTime" or "Save Selection as QuickTime" produces QuickTime movies, and these play just fine in the QuickTime Player-- except only about the upper left 25% of each plot appears in the QuickTime player window. Changing the Plot sizes using ImageSize doesn't seem to change this, nor does stretching the QuickTime window; and I haven't found any settable options or prefs in either Mathematica or QT Player which seem to do anything to fix this, nor any helpful information in their documentation. What do I need to do? (Email replies much appreciated; I'm up against a tight deadline in getting this done.) (My eventual goal is to link to the movie from an Adobe Acrobat 5.0 document, if that makes any difference.) -- "Power tends to corrupt. Absolute power corrupts absolutely." Lord Acton (1834-1902) "Dependence on advertising tends to corrupt. Total dependence on advertising corrupts totally." (today's equivalent)
