| Newtpaint FULL version? | |
| Does anyone know where the full version of Newtpaint can be had? The demo is readily available, but it’s pretty useless since it expires after a while. Thanks! Posted by: PB145B on 2021-07-30 00:24:45 | |
| Give these a try, I haven't tested either of them so I can't guarantee this is what you want... Edit: re-attach files (seems that .image and .hqx aren't allowed?) Posted by: aladds on 2021-07-31 11:10:13 | |

Give these a try, I haven't tested either of them so I can't guarantee this is what you want...The disk image in that zip file contained the full version! Thank you very much! My MP120 is very happy now. 😄  Posted by: PB145B on 2021-07-31 18:01:58 | |
| Wow thanks, I’ve been looking for the full version of NewtPaint™ for quite a while. Installed it on Einstein (Newton emulator) works like a charm. Posted by: PerspexSphinx on 2021-11-26 17:26:12 | |
| Has it been released as freeware? Posted by: beachycove on 2021-11-26 18:28:05 | |
Has it been released as freeware?No idea, but I had an extremely hard time finding much information about it. I didn’t see a place where it could even be purchased either. I am extremely grateful that @aladds shared a copy of it though! Posted by: PB145B on 2021-11-28 17:37:50 | |
| If I'm honest I can't remember where this came from. I was a member of the NTLK mailing list back when I used a MP2100 as my daily driver, so it's possible it came from there or someone on there. If we think it might not be legitimate to have this here then I'm totally ok with it being removed (although seemingly I can't do that myself) The other option is we try to contact LandWare (or whoever they are now) and ask them to officially release it - there is a precedent, since a number of old Newton applications have been released as open source now (e.g. NewtCard, NSBasic) Posted by: aladds on 2021-11-29 01:39:09 | |
| Landware products, like Catamount, etc., seem to have required a serial after x days, so if this software doesn’t, perhaps it has indeed been released into the wild. I’m pretty sure their Lunar Lander game was…. It’s hard to keep track of Newton software, as it‘s all over the place and the unna repository isn’t at all up to date.

hi, i get an error when i try this. 🙁 Posted by: newtonsales on 2024-03-31 11:37:42 | |
| I was able to convert the image file using Disk Utility under High Sierra. My guess is that support for HFS images was dropped in newer versions of Disk Utility. Posted by: splorp on 2024-04-02 10:59:53 | |
| What are the relative benefits of NewtPaint vs NewtWorks Draw? Posted by: okto on 2025-07-08 13:17:38 | |
| NewtPaint was a true bitmap editing program, similar to MacPaint, DeskPaint, and the like. The Drawing stationery included as part of Newton Works incorporated both bitmap-based tools and vector-like object creation tools, similar to MacDraw. 
DrawingThe document format (or stationery) used by the drawing component of the Newton Works application. When a new drawing document is created, it is assigned the default title “ …

| Anybody know were I can get a copy of Pict2pkg which came bundled with NewtPaint according to the Spec Sheet. Thanks. Posted by: PerspexSphinx on 2025-09-08 15:43:34 | |
| I believe this is the same Pict2pkg applications that was bundled with NewtPaint. https://discmaster.textfiles.com/browse/38584/PDA10.toast/mac/Packages/Mac/All/Pict2Pkg 0.23 Posted by: splorp on 2025-09-09 08:12:50 | |
| Thanks, except I couldn’t get that version to work, but I found this site… Vector (Japanese) …which has a version that seems to work.  Posted by: PerspexSphinx on 2025-09-23 22:45:34 | |
Thanks, except I couldn’t get that version to work, but I found this site… Good find. I’ve added the Vector Newton software page to the Newton FAQ. Where can I find software for my Newton? Posted by: splorp on 2025-09-24 13:40:11 |
