Nelson) Subject: Silhouette Colortrace 1.5 /graphics/commercial Date: Tue Jun 1 12:09:28 1993 SILHOUETTE GRAPHICS PACKAGE from Z*Net 9308 Toad Computers is proud to announce that it has acquired the exclusive worldwide distribution and marketing rights to Silhouette. The newest version of Silhouette, version 1.5, supports color and adds many new features. Version 1.5 also sports a new name: Silhouette Colortrace. Silhouette has always been an exciting vector and bitmap graphics package with many unique and advanced graphics tools. Silhouette Colortrace adds color to the mix and allows you to create colorful vector and bitmap graphics from scratch. Or you can edit existing color graphics! Silhouette Colortrace outputs to standard black and white and color file formats like Illustrator EPS (for use with PageStream), GEM metafiles, and even Calamus CVG. For viewing color work on-screen, Silhouette Colortrace supports TT medium resolution (16 colors) and the Falcon 16 and 256 color modes. Color work may be done in other modes as well, including monochrome 640 x 400 or 1280 x 960. Silhouette Colortrace includes a new and upgraded bitmap to vector conversion process that supports color and has reduced memory requirements. The program also takes advantage of Speedo GDOS and its Bitstream fonts for inclusion of standard GDOS text. Additionally, Speedo GDOS text may be converted into modifiable vector objects a great feature for creating custom logos and other text effects. Silhouette is developed by Maxwell CPU of Odenton, Maryland. They will continue to add new and exciting features to the program.
