Modular Synth Panels

Hi Dave,

I got Inkscape for the same reason, and it does seem to work! One thing I've not been able to achieve though is converting text into HPGL, it will convert everything else. You may not have noticed if you're just using it for symbols, but if anyone has any ideas on how to convert text to HPGL using Inkscape I'd be most appreciative!

      I've been working on getting some FPD files together for Ken Stone's 

Quad Logic Gates and wanted to use graphic representations instead of 

text.  To that end I needed to be able to import HPGL files and also to 

create them.



I downloaded the free InkScape program which is a scalable vector 

graphics program that can export HPGL.  I was able to create a suitable 

OR symbol and import into FPD.  So a good solution for those trying to 

create graphics for FPD files.  The interface is a little hard to get 

used to because the SVG files tend to work with paths rather than pixels 

but it's doable.
