Acorn Risc PC Release note
Software issues !
Draw
Saving files for loading by other applications
The Drawfile format has been extended (since !Draw version 0.88) to
include a new 'type 11' object which records details about the page
size and orientation of the file.
Some applications may fail to load Drawfiles containing this new
object. To overcome this problem, load the Drawfile into Draw,
choose Select all and save the selection; this saves a Drawfile
without a type 11 object.
Loading files into Acorn Desktop Publisher
Before you save a file from Draw to load it into Acorn DTP, convert to
path any rotated text, otherwise Acorn DTP will not display or print
the rotated text.
Over-magnifying
If you scale up an object in !Draw and then highly magnify the view,
the object may disappear. To retrieve the object, undo these operations.
Reduce the object's scaling so that it doesn't disappear again.
Importing sprites
Importing sprites without palettes may result in the sprite colours
appearing incorrect.
!Boot - Fonts
Additional fonts are now added to the computer using the Fonts
screen in the !Configure application. The !Configure application is
started by double-clicking on !Boot.
