Abacus Geometry Draw

Abacus GeomDraw is a program which is used in conjunction with Microsoft Word to produce documents containing geometrical diagrams. The diagrams using GeomDraw are bitmap images, which Word may import them as "pictures".

The diagrams using GeomDraw are bitmap images, which Word may import them as "pictures". Firstly the construction of a diagram, with associate text, on the Drawing Panel, and secondly the conversion of this diagram to a bitmap image using the Save Image Panel.

Facilities are provided at each stage for saving the work. Diagrams are saved into the "Diagrams" sub-folder as *.dgm, and images are saved in the "Images" sub-folder as *.bmp.

In order to obtain the best printer resolution from bitmap images, the diagrams are initially constructed on the Drawing Panel in large size, and then reduced in size by the Save Image Panel for use in Word.

GeomDraw is operated in two stages. Firstly the construction of a diagram, with associate text, on the Drawing Panel, and secondly the conversion of this diagram to a bitmap image using the Save Image Panel.
