I'm not absolutely sure about WfW, but heres how it works for us.

Excel --> WordPerfect for Windows (WP)
Open both applications, select picture i Excel, copy, select WP 'n paste.

Acad11 --> WP
Select an HP-plotter in ACAD. Plot to file. Open graphbox in  WP, and load
"file.plt".

I guess also WFW has an option to convert HPGL files, it may be a
standalone conversion utility.

Frank:

I do not know of a good way to change a circle to a polyline but
you can either define a polyline arc to be a circle or use the
donut command.  If you use the donut command make the inside
diameter = the outside diameter.

You could probably very easy set up a autocad script to write out all the 
different colors, what you could do is have it go through the drawing, 
search through it with the lisp command tblnext or smething... Then have 
it just plot all entities of a certain color to a file. Then have it go 
to the next color and plot all those entities, each time appending the 
plot file to the first one, or you could have it plot out to files named 
something like:
TempPlot-001
TempPlot-002

Then all you need to do is have a shell script join all those plots 
together into one file, with a setrgbcolor or wahetver it was in between 
each of them... 

You get the idea... Of course you could always write your own plotter 
driver that would support multiple colors...

BTW, Which version of Autocad are you running? 10 or 11

  I have heard that the ADS interface was really good.. I havent

A few weeks ago I talked with several people at Autodesk about AutoCAD for the  
NeXT computer.  Two of the people that I spoke with told me that AutoDesk was  
planning a release for the NeXT.  I could not get a definite date out of them  
but I did get a confirmation about the product.  I really need to find out how  
soon they will have a product to market.  I would think that, armed with NeXT's  
superior development environment, AutoDesk would be able to port the Unix  
version of AutoCad in a matter of weeks.

If anyone out there knows more about the NeXT release of AutoCad,  
PLEASE,PLEASE,PLEASE send me some info.

Also, if any of you are developers,could you please let me know if you are  
planning on offering an AutoCad related product.

Thanks,

Subject: Digitizing/calibrating advice sought
Date: 14 Apr 92 17:00:40 GMT
Distribution: na
Organization: Math, Stats & CS, Dalhousie University, Halifax, NS, Canada

When digitizing in AutoCad (using a GTCO table, if that matters), I've run
into an annoyance/problem which I hope someone can help me with.

I have a series of continuous lines spread out over a large sheet, which
cannot be digitized all at once.  Therefore, I must calibrate the tablet,
digitize part of the lines, and then move the sheet, recalibrate, and
continue digitizing, etc.

The problem is when I recalibrate for the second (and thereafter) time,
I introduce a small offset that results in discontinuities in the line,
as it appears in AutoCad.  This error is due to my not calibrating at the
EXACT point as on the previous section, but this is very hard to do.

So, I guess I'm looking for some method to recalibrate without introducing
this shifting effect.  Ideally, I'd like to be able to calibrate off the end
point of the line in AutoCad (not from the sheet).

Is this clear?  And, just as importantly, any advice?

Well, gee Chris, I suppose if we'd just all DROP everything and jump RIGHT 
into CadKey, we'd have NO problems at all.  Forget all of the work, and the 
work that everyone else has done on AutoCAD.  Yes, AutoCAD is "hard" at first 
to learn, but thats NOTHING like learning CadKey.  Ive used both, and I can 
say CadKey lacks MOST of the ease that AutoCAD has.  Wanna customize CadKey, 
Good Luck.  Care to make 3rd part software, be my guest.

Unless you know EVERYTHING about BOTH pieces of software (as I don't) you 
have no room to speak.

AutoCAD is by far "real" CAD, with MUCH more support than CadKey by far.

What verson did you try? 1.0?

It's just now coming out on the RS/6000.  I think it hasn't been
announced yet.  If you call Autodesk at 415-331-0356, they should be
able to refer to you someone who handles the product or will handle it.

It's the same program, running on a very fast workstation instead of a
fast PC with no operating system.

Hi !

I have a friend who wants to get the most out of his 486, running autocad.
He has a fast 486, 4Meg extra memory, MS-DOS 5.0, QEMM386, and a fairly
fast hard disk. Can anyone suggest how he can configure this system best ?

What he needs is information on how to set up his autoexec.bat and config.sys.
It doesn't matter if all the extra memory is grabbed by whatever is set up
- he only wants to use the machine for autocad.

Any suggestions ?

What is AcadWin R11, please? My understanding was that ACAD 11 does not run
under Windows, and that's the end of the story. Perhaps (hopefully) I'm wrong.
Is AcadWin a commercial/shareware/public domain program to coerce standard ACAD
11 to do so, is it a version of ACAD 11 that will do so (perhaps even an ACAD 11
lookalike), or i it just a utility to allow ACAD drawings to be viewed under
Windows? Whatever it is, can someone explain and tell me how AcadWin can be
obtained. 

Thanks,

Andy McBrien.
