MAKE GRAPHIC CHANGES TO ANY POSTSCRIPT DOCUMENT (PS or EPS) FROM
ANY PLATFORM, FROM ANY APPLICATION!
TAILOR PS and EPS editing software takes advantage of the NEXTSTEP
Environment.
Englewood Colorado, August 5, 1993 - PostScript is a type of format
widely used to transfer information between applications and
platforms in many publishing environments. However, by using this
universal format, one looses the ability to make any changes to the
imported information, apart from sizing and positioning. Now, for
all NEXTSTEP users, Tailor eliminates this important restriction!
Tailor enables you to graphically edit any PostScript document,
including multi-page PostScript files imported from MS Windows or
Macintosh platforms. You can move, reshape, or delete all types of
graphic objects, such as line art, text and pixel images. You can
re-color, modify or add line art. You can alter typefaces, modify
or add text, and regroup text lines into paragraphs for more
flexible editing. And you can save the results back in a PostScript
file or use the standard copy and paste functions to place them in
any NEXTSTEP application.
Some of the attributes offered through TAILOR are:
Multi-page support
o open multi-page PostScript documents
o randomly browse through their pages
o extract any part of any page for pasting in another application
o edit any part of any page and save or paste the result separately
o save and print multi-page documents
PostScript input & reconstruction
o retain embedded font definitions as line-work where appropriate
o retain named colors and separation colors
o reconstruct more text paragraph features better
o optimize input of PostScript from widely used applications
Editing
o undo capability
o create and edit paths, including the bezier control points
o enter numeric position and size
o retain structuring information (grouping) in the saved document
