The solution was EasyDraw – and for just $20 the client bought a 9-month license. How’s that for progress!ĭid a similar project last week, but the client wanted to be able to edit the files and update them after all these years. In the end, of the 4 formats (MacDraw, PICT, TIFF and JPEG) the JPEGs are the largest sized files. No problem for The Shop, I convert the document to greyscale mode, no visible difference at all, and now I can Save As… to JPEG. The PICT file was Black & White, but JPEG requires Color or Greyscale – the JPEG option is currently dimmed in the Save As… dialog. In order to save a copy as JPEG, one further step is required. tif file extension to the name automatically, a nice touch. I always use this, and the resulting files have always worked fine on modern Macs and PCs. A dialog asks whether I want Mac or PC byte ordering, with a checkbox for LZW compression.
I open each file, then do a Save As… to TIFF format. Next I use one of my favorite Mac Graphic Swiss Army Knives, Adobe Photoshop, to do further conversions. These were all Black & White drawings, so I opened each file and saved to 1 bit PICT format. MacDraw II can save documents as PICT files, the old Macintosh standard, in Black & White (1 bit) or Color (8 bit). The MacDraw Family knows nothing of these formats however, so some creativity is required. I typically create JPEG and TIFF files as the end product. Most people don’t need to manipulate their old drawings, just view and print them, so flat file formats tend to be fine. I was able to use my trusty PowerBook G3 Wallstreet (Mac OS 9.2.2) for the task. There were an assortment of old Word and Excel documents, along with a few MacDraw & MacDraw II files that needed migration. Libmono-winforms-2.0-cil package installedĪnyone else experiencing this bug? I appreciate how helpful users are here, so thanks in advance if you can offer something (or point me to a post that already solves this problem).Did a conversion job today for a client who had some files on old Mac floppy disks, he needed them useable on his PC. (also tried v0.95 and v0.89 with this rig)
Observing the verbose (cli) output at the point of error didn't reveal anything (at least to me). xmcd works fine in Windows (and standalone) versions, the problem only seems to occur in Linux (I suspect Mono, but I'll leave that to the experts to decide for sure). This file simply contains the expression "2+2=4," nothing fancy, but can't be opened in SMath or Mathcad. I have attached a screen capture of the error message, as well as the file that gets exported after I clear the error. Using all below setups, I receive "This XmlWriter does not accept XmlDeclaration at this state Prolog" error message when trying to save to the. I wish to help improve it by reporting the following bug I am experiencing: Just wanted to first say thanks for creating this fantastic program!
