Helen,

I would presume that Paint-a-Gate will not read Summit's files
because BD's software expects 8 or10 bits per data value, and 
Summit writes 12 bits.

FlowJo has a hidden feature in the Export function that would let
you write the files in a format Paint-a-Gate could read (I think). 
This is not visible in the "consumer" version of the program but I'd 
can issue you a special serial number to do it.  As Larry pointed
out, Summit can create these graphs, (as can FlowJo) so doing this
translation step may not be worth the trouble.

For more on FlowJo's color gating and overlays, see:
