Re: tweaking by hand
2015-02-25 by custodiojohn@...
The same thing happened to me. If you save an Excel file of an edited quad curve, Excel inserts carriage returns instead of line feeds which wrecks the quad curve. It also puts a quotation mark at the beginning of the file. What I do is save the Excel file as a tab delimited text file, then edit that file in a hex editor (like Hex Fiend, which is free). Find and replace hex value 22 (quotation marks) with nothing, and find and replace hex value 0D (carriage return) with hex value 0A (line feed). Save the modified file with a .quad extension.
