I am having trouble using ascii art files that I download from the WWW. 
Normally, when I pick up a piece of art via e-mail, I can download it, 
then clean it up in word perfect by viewing and saving as an ASCII file. 
The artwork remains the same, and I can then send it back over internet. 
But when I download files from the web, I can't do that. Instead of 
asking if I want to view the document as an ascii file, Word perfect asks 
if I want to convert from an IA5 format - whatever that is. Any ideas? 
I'm a novice at responding to newsgroups, so bear with me. You can send a 
separate note to me at cmspuns@uga.cc.uga.edu.
Thanks.
