Hardly, vector graphics without curves last time I looked seriously at them. For serious DTP EPS is probably the best standard (as on the Mac), though other proprietary formats (eg Corel Draw) can probably be imported by major DTP applications. It is quite a few years since I was actively engaged in DTP on windows machine. I've just remembered Oak Draw - a windows (16 bit I think) application which reads and writes Draw files and uses the RISC OS filetype AFF as the file extension (http://www.dialsolutions.com).

We (Derby Moor School) use OvationPro with HPLaserJet4 drivers printing over a network to a variety of B/W lasers - so far so good. We have just bought a Brother Colour Laser and because of the problem printing 8 bit sprites via postscript I thought I would edit the LJ4 driver to add colour and use PCL instead of PS. I only added colour options but there has been another effect. The top mm of any print is cropped no matter where the text/image is on the page. This is not affected by lowering the master frame top border or even placing the item lower down the page - 1 mm of the image/text is always missing. This also happens when printing with the colour driver with Ovation but not with Draw or Easiwriter. Selecting the old LJ4 driver B/W and printing on the new printer is OK with no cropping. I am confused.

The printer is so big that it is impossible to bring it home so any experiments have to be at school. Update: I've produced a temporary fix by adding a thin vertical line 2mm long at the top right corner of the default page.

Can you also look at it with different software (!pdf http://www.pdf.iconbar.com/ is an alternative for RISC OS), I'd recommend you look at it with at least one version of Adobe's Acrobat Reader. When I generate PDFs using Ghostscript the embedded type1 fonts do not show with !pdf (homerton is substituted) but are fine on Acrobat Reader 4 and 5 (but 3 fails).

I think my problem is with getting the frame and picture size correct, that is ensuring that the picture is scaled to 100% and then trying to fit the frame around it. I seem to get a different file every time I try to create a PDF file so I am missing something in the procedure. I am using Homerton and Trinity fonts so they should not produce a problem. I am using RiScript to create and view the PDF file. What is the best way to ensure that I get the frame/picture correct.

May not be the best, but my way of wrking would be drop the picture into the frame, set the scale in the info palette to 100% and click the centre button. Now you'll see some X and Y offset reported. Negative values indicate your frame is cropping the picture by that amount both edges (L + R or Top + Bottom), positive values are blank area within the frame before the picture. Adjust the frame size by twice the value in the X and Y offsets and re-centre the picture should give offstes of exactly zero. Personally I'd aim for small negative offsets to force the frame to crop the picture a minimal amount - half a millimetre for example (just in case there is a margin of error in the calculations - sorry David P). Is the effect you are seeing the picture pringing in transparent area betwen the lines of the frame border? Shouldn't be because the border is drawn outside the frame, and the frame should be cropping the picture.

Nice idea, Anthony and in a perfect world it'd work fine and would be the way I'd prefer to work too. However, RiScript doesn't honour the cropping. If you crop a pic in Ovation (or any other app come to that) RiScript prints the entire pic, hidden bits and all.

I'd have thought that since it makes RiScript useless in many cases that that meant it was their problem and that a priority would have been to develop code that circumvented it.

But this might be chargable(?). I talked this through with someone on the Cerilica stand last year. Basically Taborca and Riscript use the same conversion method, i.e. first create a Drae file, then produce pdf from that. Draw doesn't support clipping paths, so anything clipped is displayed in full as described. Vantage produces pdf via a more direct route, so the obvious step is to port the Vantage code into Riscript. Meanwhile, ghostscript works. As a result I didn't buy RiScript.

Probably depends what you mean by Em. In typesetting (and DTP) Em is the width of an upper-case M at the current font size (often treated as the same as the font size), an En is half an Em representing the width of a upper-case N at current font size.

As Pete says, FontEd will let you import a drawfile to an existing font, but it's a bit dated (not very friendly to RISC OS 4 or to Base0 encoded fonts). FontFiend (bundled with DrawWorks 3rd Millennium, from APDL, I believe these days) does it too.

Another approach of "em" or "em square" is the "design size" of a font. For PostScript fonts this is a 1000x1000 grid (an em square of 1000), for TrueTypes 2048x2048 (an em square of 2048). All measurements are related to this grid. Risc OS fonts can have variabel design sizes or em squares. You can see this in the main menu in !FontEd. It depends on the font manager or font management how important the used grid/design size/ em square is for scaling. -- Mrs Tonnie Demarteau - the Netherlands -- To unsubscribe from this list, email majordomo@lists.barnet.ac.uk with the words UNSUBSCRIBE ovationpro in the body of the message From owner-ovationpro@omega.barnet.ac.uk Wed Mar 20 14:48:55 2002 Received: from punt-21.mail.demon.net by pilling.demon.co.uk with SMTP id AA163218 for opro ; Wed, 20 Mar 102 14:48:52 GMT Received: from punt-2.mail.demon.net by mailstore for opro@pilling.demon.co.uk id 1016580084:20:18439:135; Tue, 19 Mar 2002 23:21:24 GMT Received: from omega.barnet.ac.uk ([194.82.200.3]) by punt-2.mail.demon.net id aa2102362; 19 Mar 2002 23:20 GMT Received: (from majordomo@localhost) by omega.barnet.ac.uk (8.11.3/8.11.3) id g2JNLeP30719 for ovationpro-list; Tue, 19 Mar 2002 23:21:40 GMT Received: from tele-post-20.mail.demon.net (tele-post-20.mail.demon.net [194.217.242.20]) by omega.barnet.ac.uk (8.11.3/8.11.3) with ESMTP id g2JNLci30716 for ; Tue, 19 Mar 2002 23:21:38 GMT Received: from pilling.demon.co.uk ([158.152.9.39]) by tele-post-20.mail.demon.net with smtp (Exim 3.35 #1) id 16nSu1-0008eR-0K for ovationpro@lists.barnet.ac.uk; Tue, 19 Mar 2002 23:20:25 +0000 Date: Tue, 19 Mar 2002 23:21:05 GMT Message-Id: <163214@pilling.demon.co.uk> From:(David Pilling) To: ovationpro@lists.barnet.ac.uk Subject: Re: Problems with !TransImp X-Mailer: ArcBM 1.11 Sender: owner-ovationpro@lists.barnet.ac.uk Precedence: bulk Reply-To: ovationpro@lists.barnet.ac.uk X-maillist: ovationpro >I recently came across !UnHTML (1.25) by Mike Williams, and as there are >a number of HTML docs I would like printed properly Some thoughts. Firstly UnHTML (ISTR) exports DDF, which the OP DDF loader can load direct (thus skipping Impression and all that). You'll probably have to settype things - DDF is type 707 for OP purposes. Second, are these UnHTML Impression docs special (if so why?) or do all Imp docs come to grief through 'not enough memory'. My suspicion here is that another transloader is grabbing the Imp docs and falling over. Some of the graphics ones tend to grab anything and then explode.

You can do that with !FontEd (free from Acorn). It comes with an extensive helpfile, but the interactive help is realy important. Only in a 16 colour mode, you get all the information displayed. You need the StrongArm version for a SA machine. Be aware not to save existing fonts, when !FontEd starts with a message about its unabality to save misc/kerndata! Other font editors are the commercial ones, DrFonty and FontFiend of iSV. A demo is on the OP CD rom. Lastly, a different -and in this case easy- approach is using !D2toFont of David Pilling. You can drop Drawfiles in it and turn it into a font. When you start with the "biggest" character or glyph -presumably a fake- all characters keep their original measurements, even when you extend the font later via !D2toFont. When you have a copy of !FontEd, you can drag any glyph directly from a !FontEd character window into a DrawFile. -- Mrs Tonnie Demarteau - the Netherlands -- To unsubscribe from this list, email majordomo@lists.barnet.ac.uk with the words UNSUBSCRIBE ovationpro in the body of the message From owner-ovationpro@omega.barnet.ac.uk Wed Mar 20 14:49:00 2002 Received: from punt-21.mail.demon.net by pilling.demon.co.uk with SMTP id AA163220 for opro ; Wed, 20 Mar 102 14:48:56 GMT Received: from punt-2.mail.demon.net by mailstore for opro@pilling.demon.co.uk id 1016580714:20:29875:56; Tue, 19 Mar 2002 23:31:54 GMT Received: from omega.barnet.ac.uk ([194.82.200.3]) by punt-2.mail.demon.net id aa2118638; 19 Mar 2002 23:31 GMT Received: (from majordomo@localhost) by omega.barnet.ac.uk (8.11.3/8.11.3) id g2JNW1L30915 for ovationpro-list; Tue, 19 Mar 2002 23:32:01 GMT Received: from warrior.services.quay.plus.net ([212.159.14.227]) by omega.barnet.ac.uk (8.11.3/8.11.3) with SMTP id g2JNVxi30912 for ; Tue, 19 Mar 2002 23:31:59 GMT Received: (qmail 6213 invoked from network); 19 Mar 2002 23:30:36 -0000 Received: from unknown (HELO tinshill.force9.net) (212.159.23.113) by warrior.services.quay.plus.net with SMTP; 19 Mar 2002 23:30:36 -0000 Date: Tue, 19 Mar 2002 23:10:07 +0000 (GMT) From: Anthony Hilton Subject: Re: Problems with !TransImp To: Ovation Pro List In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; CHARSET=US-ASCII X-Organization: X-Mailer: ANT RISCOS Marcel [ver 1.53] Sender: owner-ovationpro@lists.barnet.ac.uk Precedence: bulk Reply-To: ovationpro@lists.barnet.ac.uk X-maillist: ovationpro In on Tue 19 Mar, Ed Donnelly wrote: > Lo, in message > Anthony Hilton did write: > > > > In message you wrote: > > [TransImp] > > > Probably means not enough memory in the Next slot or something.

My next thought is that the import filter uses some other memory area - System heap/Stack, Module area, Font cache, System Sprites - so try with different values of these until you get one that works. Or is there something in the filter which gives the "Not enough Memory" error when it means "Too much memory" like Artworks does? Test this one by using a big RAM disc to reduce available memory below 64Mb. No - I've just played with various settings and mostly get teh same error and just once got a "Cannot convert file" error but have now lost the task manager.

As a result both web sites are closed and will remain so for at least a week or two. When they come back there will be the promised OP 2.67 and SparkFS 1.38. The program formerly called IM will continue under a different name. For now that is "David Pilling's Scanning Software", !DPlngScan on the desktop. The IM upgrades will go from the web site. I don't know yet how or if there will be upgrades to DPlngScan over the web in future. If you have a web site or a magazine that mentions my 'ImageMaster' it would help me if you could remove all references to it. What I want is to reduce the number of hits typing 'ImageMaster' into a search engine produces, so wiping out the name completely is the favoured option, rather than having pages that say things like "formerly called IM" since they will present just as many hits.

Look at the parameters of the fill, either on screen using the fill tool, or in the DDL. I was thinking that the fill could accidentally be set to some odd value - doesn't really tie up if a DDL reload fixes things. There's a lot to be made specific, what sort of fill? what sort of parameters? (clearly some parameters ranges will be suspect, shears of 90 degrees and so on).

No. And simple editing would not be enough, the name ***** is embedded in the code in various places. Perhaps the only (theoretical) problem would be if you wanted to resell your copy of the program. Sensibly you'd have to say "copy of David Pilling's scanning software for sale", which would then be OK.

What stupid thing have I done or not done? Possibly it was moved (using Select on the toolbar's edges) by mistake. Try minimizing the OvationPro window to its smallest size, use the biggest screen resolution possible. Then position the OvPro window at the extreme 4 cormers and every time carefully look along all edges of your screen if you see something appearing there. Drag the "something" using Select on its edges. It might be the toolbar. I state "something" as when testing, I succeeded in only having the top 1mm of the toolbar visible at the extreme bottom of my screen. As far as I know, and tried, it is not possible to drag the toolbar on its own off screen even if one can drag the OvPro window beyond the visible screen. But changing to a smaller screen resolution may then result in the toolbar becomming invisible. If you succeed let us know. I then tend to believe there is no bug as David Pilling suggests. Whether the program can be changed to "home" the toolbar is then another affair (as default setting?).

The workaround using Riscript is to place empty frames over the clipped parts of the picture in the Ovation document before printing the Postscript file; you may have to place an extra transparent frame over the wanted part of the picture to get text runaround working. Vantage, we are told, uses an improved Drawfile format which does support clipping. As Cerilica publish both Vantage and Riscript, I hope the latter can start using the new format very soon, as it's a real nuisance at present, especially when trying to read some of the jazzier brochures from the internet.

I tried it as well and did not succeed. The Toolbar always remained far away from the OvPro window. Another experience showed that changing screen sizes tends to move the toolbar from almost totally unvisible to clearly visible somewhere along the edges of the screen. Using WWS's application !Larger, one can move on and off screen. I beleive that OvPro maintains its windows in the active screen. Did not have time yet to fully investigate this aspect. You do not mention whether the toolbar had been moved in your case. Do you know?

In general there is the malarky with JPEG's and CC's printer drivers. See the OP CDGuide document or the maillist archives. Second IMHO Laser Direct seems to have a bug with printing at the same time as pages are being queued. Fix put the printer off line (not physically, using the driver), print, then release the queue. This second point is very tricky since what happens depends critically on timing - it is reproducible though, given you print exactly the same thing the same way.

Good suggestion. Since this seems to be a popular thread. I also have trademark problems with the name 'Ovation'. Not quite as extreme as with the other program. Beebug had a Benelux registration on the name which is about to expire. I've got to decide whether to keep it up, or change the name. Any ideas for a new name? Ovation seems to be a very popular name in the trademark world by the look of it, Beebugs usage was challenged and they had to agree to limit the name to DTP software.

OP will run on Windows, and making the Impression loader run there is trivial. So (at last?) you can expect to be able to use Impression docs on Windows. A bit late in the day I would guess. Presumeably your buddy could also buy Virtual Acorn - depends what he wants to do. If his aim is conversion to MS word format, then neither will help. I can see MS word loading leaping up the todo list once OP is out for Windows.

I am quite happy with the name Ovation however if it is going to be cheaper and/or less hassle to change it then get the damn thing changed since I'm sure you have better things to be doing with your time. Since you are already changing The Software Which May Not Speak Its Name's name perhapse names which share a common theame or syntactic structure may be appropriate. Image Mill & Page Mill ?
