If you want more infos about AmigaMetaFileFormat, please look at Aminet
util/libs/AMF-Library.lha or ask your pd-dealer...
Bugs:
- Not all WMF-codes are supported, but the most WMF-files should work.
ATTENTION:
- There is a bug on some configurations, reported from S. Mueller, W. Meyer
and Goetz-Ottfried Dust. I can't find the cause :-(
Please test it, and use it or not. If you want, you can test it with
CLI-Arguments. (Thanks to G. Dust and W. Meyer)
- Please report bugs, if you found some!
Use:
This programm is startable from Workbench or CLI.
For start from Workbench just doubleclick the icon.
For start from CLI just type in the consolewindow 'MetaView'. You can
give some options:
- LOADNAME the gfx-file to view
- SAVENAME the gfx-file to save, for converting, if you have give a SAVENAME,
then the program will not open the window to show the gfx-file
- LOAD/K force to load the gfx-file as AMF,WMF,CDR, if you dont use this
option, the program look for the filetype alone
- SAVE/K save the gfx-file as AMF,EPS,CGM,GEM,WW,ILBM,AMF2 or PRT
AMF - AmigaMetaFileFormat
EPS - Encapsulated PostScript
CGM - Computer Graphics Metafile
GEM - GEM Metafile
WW - WordWorth-ARexx-script
ILBM - Interleaved Bitmap
AMF2 - AMF with Previewpicture (* not yet *)
PRT - Printer
if you dont use this option, then you get AMF-files
- WIDTH/K for ILBM and PRINTER the WIDTH of output (ILBM - Pixels,
PRT - mm)
- HEIGHT/K for ILBM and PRINTER the HEIGHT
- XOFF/K for PRINTER the x-position in mm
- YOFF/K for PRINTER the y-position in mm
- DEPTH Depth for ILBM and PRT-Output
- ERRORS/S writeout all unsupported functions in WMF-files and the structure
in CDR-files
- NOPROP/S no preserve picture-aspect
the default options are:
SAVE = AMF
WIDTH = 640 (ILBM) or 50 (PRT)
HEIGHT = 400 (ILBM) or 50 (PRT)
XOFF = 0
YOFF = 0
DEPTH = 4
