Export

Text, vector graphics and raster graphics can be exported from a frame.

You can only select the Export menu item if you have selected a single text, raster graphic or vector graphic frame. The object selector box will appear.

You will see the formats which Calamus knows how to write. When you click on the Load (or Replace) button (see Object selection) you can now load driver modules into the dialog box. The driver names follow this designation system:

The filename gives a short form of the external file format, with the file extender (the three characters after the point) describing the type of driver. The first character of the file extender is always a C (for Calamus). If the driver can only import, the second character will be I; if it can only export, the second character will be an E; and if it can do both, the second character will be an X. The third character stands for the type of frame which the driver can work with: A T stands for text frames, R for raster graphics, and V for vector graphics. The first eight characters of the filename are a shorthand for the format of the file. For example, the driver WORDPLUS.CIT is an import driver for text frames that can read data which had been produced with the program 1st WORD Plus, and the driver ASCIIMEX.CXT can both read and write ASCII text from/to corresponding text frames.

In addition to the regular buttons in the object selector box, there's also a button labelled Export, which by now requires no further explanation. When exporting text however, there is also a Fonts button.

When you click on this button, the following dialog box will appear.

You can assign fonts to correspond to the different styles supported by the chosen format. The most common styles are Bold and Italic. If you want to alter the preset option, click in the field with the relevant font, and then in the overview below this on the desired font.

You can determine how italic text in the original document should be handled. If the button Italic font is selected, then the fonts selected for Italic and Bold and Italic will be used. If the button Italic style is selected then Calamus will instead slope the Normal and Bold fonts to give an italic effect.

A click on Exit ends the assignment, and Calamus will use the information for the next file.

Use the Save button in order to save these settings in your Calamus.SET file. Please keep in mind that not the real font assignments and their names are saved, but only the numbers of the currently loaded fonts in their physical order.
