- Heck, I'll throw in my personal endorsement. Just from my casual
- experience with other Amiga structured drawing programs, I would say that
- it is easily the best (and the only one still supported?)
-
- It lacks many of the features of something like Adobe Illustrator, but
- then again it's also half the price. And the features it does have are
- supported well. It does beautiful ILBM24 dumps, supports Post Script
- Type 1 fonts, multiple working layers, and really lots of other stuff..
-
- Not to say if they do a future version, I don't have a few things I'd
- like them to throw in for me. :) But I felt it was definitely worth the
- money.
-
- I would recommend a speedy computer, (I'd reccomend an 030 or better) and
- some extra memory (especially if you plan to do some ambitious ILBM24
- exports..) I bet a graphics card would be nice, too..
