[comp.sys.atari.st] Cad 3D II Metafiles to Easydraw or Timeworks

jalkio@cc.helsinki.fi (02/12/90)

I have printed Metafiles with the Cad 3D II Hardcopy-program. I haven't
been able to load these files to Easydraw or Timeworks, even if they use
Metafiles, too. What's the reason for this?

Jalkio, (and others!)

the answer is to use version 2.3 of EasyDraw which can import CAD 3D
metafiles with ease, though you will find that shading is changed to a
uniform tone of grey.

If you don't have 2.3 you should upgrade through your distributor or
Migraph themselves. Migraph can supply a version 3 to owners who are
registered directly with Migraph.

Good luck

(I have no commercial connection with Migraph)
