DA's Vector PRO
"""""""""""""""
DA's Vector PRO is a color vector graphis program for any ATARI ST(e)/
TT030 and Falcon030 computer systems, with at least 2MB of memory. If will
run in all color resolutions from monochrome to 16.7 Millions colors, and with
most graphic boards. Anyone who has worked with computer graphics will know
that one of the biggest drawbacks is the fact it is almost impossible to
achieve a decent drawing by simply moving a mouse with your hand, it's like
trying to sketch with a 12" diameter pencil. Of course there are ways around
this, a good one being the use a scanner to copy your drawing into a paint
package, but resulting image is bitmapped (Made of dots or pixels) so if you
try to resize it the edges of the image become jagged and distorted.
Vector graphics can solve this problem, and do much more besides. The
first use for vector graphics was in the motor industry. Today the whole
publishing world relies on them. DA's Vector PRO uses this technology to
create professional quality full color graphics suitable for a hugh range of
applications including typographical design, desktop publishing, video
titling, animation, technical and creative illustration. The program consists
of a series of modules, each one adding to the power and versatility that
makes DA's Vector PRO both unique and essential.
Some of the Modules are:
""""""""""""""""""""""""
[-->] The Vectoriser
[-->] The Path Editor
[-->] The Vector Graphis Editor
[-->] The Animation Editor
[-->] The Chart Generator
[-->] Services

Quill
"""""
Quill is a pen and ink freehand vector drawing package that combines the
speed and responsiveness of a painting package with the smooth rescaleable
output of vector graphics. It is the first program to properly emulate
naturalistic drawing and writing with a shaped nib of italic pen. Quill
records every flick of your pen and renders each stroke in flawless curves
drawn in the nib of your choice. The nib can be edited (choose square of
rounded, then squash, rotate, stripe and resize) both before and after drawing
so you can mould its shaped and weight to best express a particular sketch or
piece of lettering. Individual pen strokes can be moved or deleted with the
powerful zoom option allowing precise adjustments. A reversible UNDO effects
all graphic operations; so you can work spontaneously and without fear. Quill
saves in its own vector format, and exports bit image files at any size of
resolution. Ideal for signatures, handlettering, calligraphy, font design,
tracing, cartoon and sketches. Works with either a mouse or (you guessed it)
Tabby Graphics Tablet...
