HIS part of the tutorial shows you how to use Floating
graphics to get a number of special effects, for example the
illuminated capital letter at the start of this paragraph. Paragraphs can
contain several graphics which can be aligned to the left or right with
text flowing over the graphic.
A brief tutorial follows that will show you how to produce the following document.
Just kidding, but it does illustrate the use of embedded graphics!
In fact you will produce a document that looks similar to this:
RONOUNCED 'ping' this is starting to become a popular
format and is likely to take over from GIF. It is used extensively in Word
8. PNGs can
have variable transparency. If
you are looking at this document in TechWriter or EasiWriter click on the
picture to the left and change the background colour using the Borders
dialogue. Note how the shadow 'absorbs' the background colour. TechWriter
and EasiWriter can decode PNGs without the need for ImageFS2 or InterGif.
This paragraph also shows how in-line graphics can be 'floated' to the left
or right margins, while the text flows round them. This is similar to the
way graphics are left and right handed in HTML.
First you are going to create a section.
Next insert the illuminated letter.
Now you are going to add the other picture.
That ends this short tutorial, you will find more details in Chapter two Using EasiWriter, Figure & Pictures.
