Sorry for the delay in replying...

The key in PSP 5.0 is to "colors->decrease color depth" to 256 colors.
Then "colors->edit palette" to see which color index corresponds
to the color which is the background -- colors are numbered
starting with 0 and going to 255.  Or, if your label
is simpler, you can reduce the colors to 16.  Just make sure
your background color is unique (to avoid confusion).

Then use the "transmit" option in the image_map statement to
set the transmission of the background color to 1.

Correct -- I think you missed the "2" in my note.
