    Is there any way to use .prc graphics files in SU?

      You could get 'ABC Amber Palm Converter 2.0' [free] available from here http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/soft/27076/ which coverts .PRC files to various formats - PDF, DOC (MS Word), CHM, WPD (WordPerfect), HTML, LIT (MS Reader), RTF, HLP, TXT (ANSI), TXT (Unicode), RB (Rocket eBook), FB2 (FictionBook), and to the Clipboard..
      So you'll then need to get a suitable image from those - PDF files can only be directly imported into SUp on MACs...
      You can quite easily snip an area from a PDF and paste it into an image file... or you could use SoftInterface's 'Convert PDF to Image 2.3' [free] available from here http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/soft/92622/

        Thanks, TIG.

        Will they loose their high quality as a result of this process?

          Probably - try it an see.
          A .prc file is a format for text, the .pdf version will probbaly replicate it's quality but any images will almost certainly loose 'something' in the processing - of course it depends on what you want to do with it! It might not be so bad 😕
