17.6.1 Choosing a graphics format for WinHelp

The format WinHelp likes best is WMF, which can contain both vector and bitmap elements. For screenshots, use the same resolution at which they were taken, 96DPI; more or less will result in unreadable text.

For non-Windows WinHelp, created via Altura on Macintosh or Bristol HyperHelp on UNIX, only BMP is supported; see §17.2.5 Accommodating platform differences.
