I ran you suggested test at InfoQuest's request and had the following
results:
- If you create an image of an NTFS partition and restore it to an
existing NTFS partition, it stays NTFS.

- If you restore the NTFS image to an existing FAT32 partition, it
says FAT32.

- If you restore the NTFS image to unallocated HD space, it creates a
new NTFS partition.

- If you create an image of a FAT32 partition and restore it to an
existing NTFS partition, it stays NTFS.

- If you restore the FAT32 image to an existing FAT32 partition, it
stays FAT32.

- If you restore the FAT32 image to unallocated HD space, it creates a
new FAT32 partition.

I only saw an option during restore to convert an existing FAT16
partition to FAT32.
