Appleworks6 (drawing - text & graphics) to be converted - how?

I have a lot of mathematics worksheets, produced on Appleworks6 (on the drawing package with text and graphics) over the years. The new OS will not support Rosetta, I understand, and so I need to transfer (translate?) all the worksheets into a more modern format, available to both Mac and PC users. How do I do this and what applications are now available which will be suitable? If I try Word:mac (11.6.3) it tells me the Appleworks6 drawing document is not the right file type.

If it were an AW6 text document with inserted graphics, then Pages would probably open it.
However, as a drawing document with text added that may not work. It is possible that Keynote might be able to open it.
Edit - - nope - just tried it with Keyboate, won't do it.
Just played with AW6 a bit. If these documents are static docs, meaning ones which do not need to be changed or otherwise addressed except viewed, there's other choices. One I tried just now in AW6, ws to do a Save As and change the format to JPEG.
This resulted in a document that should be openable by most anyone. In OS X, it opens in Preview automatically, but should be able to be opened in any app that can open JPEG files.
In Pages it got a bit trickier - Pages would not open it directly, not even via Open in File menu. But, when I treated it as a regular JPEG it worked: I opened a blank text doc in Pages, then drag-and-dropped the JPEG file into it. That worked - gave me a Pages doc with an inserted image of the original AW6 graphics file.

Can somebody help me out? I need a Corel Draw (.cdr) graphic converted to Illustrator

I'm trying to get a logo from brandsoftheworld.com but the one I want is in .CDR. I don't have Corel Draw (who does anymore) but I see that Illustrator 6 can open it. Unfortunately, I'm still on CS5.5. Can somebody help me out?

Send it to me. I'll save it as an EPS file for you.

How to draw text to scale in actual inches?

When I set my document to draw text in inches and then outline the text, its usually smaller than what it was supposed to be. How do I set it to draw to an accurate size while still in edit mode (not outlined)?

It is exactly the size it is supposed to be. When you enter a type size, it is not the height of the capital letters, it's the distance from the tallest ascender to the lowest descender.
all the text below is 12 point
the only way to get what you want is to figure out the point size at which the capitals will equal .5 inches - as you can see, this point size will vary depending on the font.

Can someone help me with drawing text and a custom image in cocoa?

I am trying to learn how to draw, and when I look at the tutorial, instead of getting straight to the point on how to draw text at a coordinate, it talks about the concepts of how to draw. I get that, but exactly what methods and what objects should I use?
For instance, the java code:
+public void drawComponent(Graphics g){+
+Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g;+
+g2.drawString("Hello, World!", 10, 20);+
draws the good old "Hello, World!" on a line starting 20 pixels down and 10 pixels across. How would I do the same in objective-c in a customized view? Based on the tutorial, I need specify the code in the
+- (void)drawRect: (NSRect) rect+
method.
Also, how would I draw a picture(.gif and .png format)?

Here's a very basic example:
- (void)drawRect:(NSRect)rect {
// draw text
NSString *myString = @"Hello World";
NSFont *font = [NSFont boldSystemFontOfSize:24];
NSColor *color = [NSColor blueColor];
NSDictionary *attrs = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
font, NSFontAttributeName,
color, NSForegroundColorAttributeName,
nil];
[myString drawAtPoint:NSMakePoint(20, 0) withAttributes:attrs];
// draw image
NSImage *myImage = [NSImage imageNamed:@"picture1.png"];
[myImage drawAtPoint:NSMakePoint(20, 40)
fromRect:NSZeroRect operation:NSCompositeCopy fraction:1.0];
Since the above uses the imageNamed convenience method of NSImage, the arg must be the name of an image file you've previously added to the main bundle (Project->Add to Project). The code for a gif would be exactly the same.
For more details see [Drawing Images into a View|https://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/Coc oaDrawingGuide/Images/Images.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40003290-CH208-BCIIBDAD] and [Simple Text Drawing|https://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/ CocoaDrawingGuide/Text/Text.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40003290-CH209-SW1] in the +Cocoa Drawing Guide+. Btw, the above is for OS X, since you asked about Cocoa. iPhone code is now called Cocoa Touch, so I hope I guessed the platform right. In case you really wanted iPhone, the code would be quite similar, but you'll need to substitute CGPointMake for NSMakePoint, UIColor for NSColor, UIImage for NSImage, and use a method like [drawAtPoint:forWidth:withFont:minFontSize:actualFontSize:lineBreakMode:baselin eAdjustment:|http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/UIKit/Refer ence/NSStringUIKit_Additions/Reference/Reference.html#//appleref/doc/uid/TP40006893-CH3-SW14] for your text. You'll also only need one arg for the [drawAtPoint|http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/UIKit/Refe rence/UIImageClass/Reference/Reference.html#//appleref/doc/uid/TP40006890-CH3-SW24] method of UIImage.
Hope that helps get you started!

Text graphics are not clean in Encore playback

I have a project that is all text graphic from a PowerPoint and no matter how I put them into Encore, they don't play back clean. I have made PNG, PSD, JPG and I even redid all the text in Premier Pro. All the same results. I have done this many times before but now nothing seems to work. Looking for answers.

Where can I look for that?

Are you drawing text at an angle with TextRenderer?

This is a question for folks that are aware of the difference in quality of output between TextRenderer.DrawText and (Graphics.DrawString + Graphics.TextRenderingHint = Text.TextRenderingHint.AntiAlias). It is an issue that has been discussed by others,
elsewhere, without resolution, and I'm simply asking if anyone has come up with a workaround.
I want to render text in the quality of TextRenderer.DrawText, at right angles or upside down. TextFormatFlags.PreserveGraphicsTranslateTransform ignores calls to RotateTransform on the Graphics object that exposes IDeviceContext to DrawText, and DrawText doesn't
play nicely with bitmaps.
Has anyone figured out a way to draw text at the same quality provided by TextRenderer.DrawText, at an angle other than 0 degrees?
(For those who need a back story to prove to you that I cannot use a Label or Graphics.DrawString for this, here you go.
There is a cat stuck in a tree in my back yard. I would like to rescue him, but there is a troll standing between me and the tree. He's a nasty troll, but on TV he plays a happy-go-lucky helpful troll, so when I call the police to complain, they just laugh
at me. "Ha! You can't fool us! We watch TV!"
The troll will allow me to reach the cat if I provide him with a UserControl that renders text at the same quality as the Windows.Forms.Label control, but at angles 90, 180 and -90 degrees. He is a clever troll in that he notices details between shoddy and
neat; rough and smooth; ugly and pretty; cat and honey badger. Therefore, I have not been able to fool him into thinking that ugly text is pretty by asserting that ugly text is pretty. Argh. I dislike this troll.)

And this has to do with

Mick Doherty? Or is this just for my information?
La vida loca
Hi Monkey
This was mainly for info, but the OP did question the difference between GDI and GDIPlus methods of drawing rotated text. Your example only provides a GDIPlus method.
GDI does not respect the Graphics objects rotations, but so long as the PreserveGraphicsTranslateTransform flag is set it will respect Translations.
Here's a simple example to highlight the issue:
Public Class Form1
Public Sub New()
' This call is required by the designer.
InitializeComponent()
' Add any initialization after the InitializeComponent() call.
Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.ResizeRedraw, True)
End Sub
Private Sub Form1_Paint(sender As System.Object, e As System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs) Handles MyBase.Paint
Dim testString As String = "My Test String"
Dim angle As Single = 0
If Me.CheckBox1.Checked Then angle = 180
Using testFont As New Font("Arial", 24, FontStyle.Regular, GraphicsUnit.Point)
Dim rc As Rectangle = Me.ClientRectangle
rc.Offset(0, -24)
Me.DrawRotatedGDIText(e.Graphics, testString, testFont, rc, Color.Red, angle)
rc.Offset(0, 48)
Me.DrawRotatedGDIPlusText(e.Graphics, testString, testFont, rc, Color.Black, angle)
End Using
End Sub
Private Sub CheckBox1_CheckedChanged(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles CheckBox1.CheckedChanged
Me.Invalidate()
End Sub
Private Sub DrawRotatedGDIText(graphics As Graphics, text As String, font As Font, bounds As Rectangle, color As Color, rotation As Single)
Dim sz As Size = TextRenderer.MeasureText(text, font)
Dim centre As Point = bounds.Location
centre.Offset(bounds.Width \ 2, bounds.Height \ 2)
Dim offset As Point = New Point(-sz.Width \ 2, -sz.Height \ 2)
graphics.TranslateTransform(centre.X, centre.Y)
graphics.RotateTransform(rotation)
TextRenderer.DrawText(graphics, text, font, offset, color, TextFormatFlags.PreserveGraphicsTranslateTransform)
graphics.ResetTransform()
End Sub
Private Sub DrawRotatedGDIPlusText(graphics As Graphics, text As String, font As Font, bounds As Rectangle, color As Color, rotation As Single)
Dim sz As Size = graphics.MeasureString(text, font).ToSize
Dim centre As Point = bounds.Location
centre.Offset(bounds.Width \ 2, bounds.Height \ 2)
Dim offset As Point = New Point(-sz.Width \ 2, -sz.Height \ 2)
graphics.TranslateTransform(centre.X, centre.Y)
graphics.RotateTransform(rotation)
Using myBrush As New SolidBrush(color)
graphics.DrawString(text, font, myBrush, offset)
End Using
graphics.ResetTransform()
End Sub
End Class
Here you can see the GDI string (red text) is rendered differently to the GDI Plus string (black text) i.e. the GDI Plus text is longer. Both strings have been rendered to the correct location as set by the graphics transformation:
Here a Rotation to the graphics object has been performed, but the GDi method has totally ignored it:
As a rule, Win32 based controls render with GDI rather than GDI+ and so if we wish to draw a custom control which appears similar to a Win32 based control we need to render with GDI. If you've ever tried to ownerdraw a tabcontrol then you will have noticed
that the text does not always fit on the tabs if we've used GDI+. using GDI the text fits perfectly, but when we side align the tabs the text does not rotate. We can, as the OP has done, draw unrotated text to a bitmap and then rotate the bitmap and this
works well if we have a solid background. If we have a textured background however, this method is not acceptable.

Draw Text in OpenGL ES

Hi all,
I tried to use the Texture2D class included in the CrashLanding Example but i saw that I can't set the color of the text (it draws only white text).
How can i set the color of the text or exists another method to draw text with OpenGL ES?
Thanks

There several ways to draw text but not an easy one so far I know. One idea is to have every letter as texture (with alphachannel) and draw an rectangle with a such a texture for each letter. Usually you set the gl drawcolor to white but you can change it to other, so you can color your text.

Tutorials on Text Graphics

Hi,
Anyone know of some good tutorials or sources that'll provide information on how to create good text graphics?
I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

No. But needless to say there were some interesting art in there though.
What I meant was how to create nice looking text graphics using Photoshop's Horizontal Type Tool (T).
Thanks anyway!

"Text Table must be converted" error

BW Gurus,
We just applied stack 15 to our BI 7.0 system (SAP_BW 0017), and are now getting an error with one of our infoobjects.
The error states that the text table must be converted, as below, but we're not quite sure what this means. This infoobject is in several infoproviders, and we get a follow up error that we must remove the infoobject from the transfer rules before it can be converted. Has anyone come up with a solution/work around for this?
Thanks
First Error:
Characteristic 0IND_CODE: The Long Text Field will be deleted, text table must be converted
Message no. R7451
Diagnosis
The Long Text Field was deleted from the text table of characteristic 0IND_CODE.
System Response
All texts, that have been saved in this field, are deleted in the activation.
The text table must be converted after the activation if it contains data.
Second error:
InfoObject 0TXTLG is used in transfer rules (T) of characteristic 0IND_CODE
Message no. R7256
Diagnosis
InfoObject 0TXTLG is still used for characteristic 0IND_CODE in the transfer rules of type T ('M': Master data, 'T': Texts). You have the following options:
1. InfoObject 0TXTLG is an attribute of characteristic 0IND_CODE
2. InfoObject 0TXTLG is the 'Valid to' field of the time-dependent characteristic 0IND_CODE (0DATETO)
3. InfoObject 0TXTLG is the 'Valid from' field of the time-dependent characteristic 0IND_CODE (0DATEFROM)
4. Characteristic 0IND_CODE is compounded to InfoObject 0TXTLG.
5. Characteristic 0TXTLG is a text field of charactersitic 0IND_CODE (OTXTSH, 0TXTMD or 0TXTLG).
6. Characteristic 0TXTLG is the language field for characteristic 0IND_CODE (0LANGU).
System Response
2 cases have to be distinguished between here:
InfoObject 0TXTLG with characteristic 0IND_CODE can not be removed in the dialog.
InfoObject 0TXTLG is removed with characteristic 0IND_CODE in the transport post-processing.
Procedure
You must first remove InfoObject 0TXTLG from the transfer rules for characteristic 0IND_CODE in the dialog before you can remove it with characteristic 0IND_CODE.
If this messages appears with transport post-processing, you should check the affected transfer rules.
If there is still an InfoObject 0TXTLG in them, you should either remove it from the transfer rules or reinsert it with characteristic 0IND_CODE.

Thanks - sometimes the simplest answer is the best.
I had been trying to figure out why the med & long text had become unchecked, but rechecking them solved the problem.
Thanks
