| Have you tried changing the page alignment options? By default,
EasyDraw will try to center the image in the page, which might be the
cause of some of this wierdness your seeing.
Most of my work is done in 11 by 17 landscape, and I found TOP/LEFT
alignment seems to work better for most images. I don't
remember offhand if this helps with 8-� by 11 landscape, but it
might be worth a try.

P.S.: Alignment options (or whatever it's called) is on the PRINTER
form under the SETTINGS (OPTIONS?) menu in the OUTPUT program.

| 85.2 | is this documented... | NEXUS::M_MASIAS | | Wed May 11 1988 14:55 | 5 |
| Thanks for replying, your response is noted and makes sense.
I looked in the manual for page sizeing on (pg 81, page 52)
and other places and found nothing on what you mentioned, if
this is documented please help the blind note a page number
if not it probably should be.

| What version of EasyDraw do you have? If I remember correctly I
have an image of the Enterprize that I picked up that was created
with GEM Draw on an IBM and printed it on the ST with EasyDraw with
no problems.

| RE: .2
I'm about 400 miles away from my ST and manual right now, so
maybe someone else can help with a manual reference. If not, I'll
look it up this weekend and post it.
RE: .3
I'm at V2.10, but I'm sure you're asking Mark, not me.

| 85.5 | Latest version of easy Draw? | NEXUS::M_MASIAS | | Thu May 12 1988 09:43 | 16 |

Reguarding question number 3. I know the version of Gdos "1.1" since
it displays this when I boot the disk, I will have to look at either
the manual or disk to find the version of easy Draw, I just bought
this a couple weeks ago.
Has anyone bought the upgrade package to Easy Draw version 2.3 I think
and if so is it worth the $50 that it costs.
I am happy with Easy Draw but there is a couple things I still wish
it could do like allow you to rotate objects/text at something other
than 45� increments also it would be nice to set in motion a object
like perhaps rotate it at a controlled rotation rate etc...
But I guess I would have to buy a more expensive package to do this.

Regarding the discussion on picture placement on the page...
In the manual which came with my copy of EasyDraw, there is mention
(but no discussion) on page 52 of the horizontal and vertical
justfication options which I was referring to in previous replies
as "orientation." There is one sentence which covers both options,
so you'd probably do better to experiment with what each one does
to your typical picture.
Note that if you're using OUTPRINT instead of OUTPUT, it's probably
different.

| 85.7 | That the solution... | NEXUS::M_MASIAS | | Mon May 16 1988 10:06 | 3 |
| In reguards to reply .6, you are correct about the horizontal
and vertical justification this is what the problem was. I could
be better documented, maybe even an illustration would be nice.

| 85.9 | Something better than Easy Draw? | HLDG02::VELZEN | | Mon May 16 1988 10:30 | 5 |
| Note 85.5 says: But I guess I would have to buy a more expensive
package to do this.
Question: Is there a better package for making slides, charts, etc.
