Sorry, still have and use Classic with my Newton... Haven't made the jump to NCX yet.

Agreed... that's a tough one. Bet you want it to be quick and easy to?

When I research what Newton Works and Notes are capable of, with respect to exporting graphics and sketches, bad news. As if the original Newton Developers never were able to finish graphic import/export support.

Haven't found an easy way yet. There's Sloup but definitely not point and click.

Other ideas?

As I recall, I think that Mail V can email notes as a GIF.

Have you thought about faxing? Your Mac can receive faxes and there are internet fax services available that will email faxes to you. I've always thought that idea would be cool.
