[comp.sys.atari.st] SIGNUM format

bradon@lifia.imag.fr (bradon) (11/06/88)

Does anyone have any informations about the format of SIGNUM files??
I would like to put them in POSTCRIPT or ASCII format, is there any existing soft
that performs this action ??
Thanks for all answers.

As I know, there is no compatibility of .SDO files with other systems
than SIGNUM. :-( You have the opportunity to export the texts written on SIGNUM
to an ASCII file with the ASCII export function. But then all layout and pic-
ture information will be lost.

Depressing, I know ...

The newest version of SIGNUM, SIGNUM II (about one and a half year old) can
export SIGNUM files as ASCII.
For SIGNUM I there exists a PD-Program that does the same. I don't have it
(because I use SIGNUM II) but it should be available from several PD-Soft
Services.

Hope this Helps
