Articque Informatique is proud to announce VeGtor 2.5, a bitmap vectoriser (raster to vector converter). * Goals of VeGtor VeGtor vectorizes maps, fonts, hand-made drafts, blue-prints, charts... VeGtor has been designed by map-makers to avoid hand made digitizing of map coordinates. But VeGtor is also a good software for anybody involved in vector-based graphics. * Principle A bitmap is composed of pixels. When you enlarge a bitmap, you enlarge the pixels and get an ugly picture. A line is composed of pixels, and if you enlarge the line you will enlarge its pixels too. Vector based drawings don't keep pixels informations but coordinates. A line is composed of its starting and ending coordinates. Thus, when you enlarge the line, you change the coordinates and a line will be drawn from the new coordinates. * Requirements VeGtor 2.5 requires Windows 3.0 and higher (including NT, OS/2 or Windows for workgroups 3.x). Minimum hardware requirements are : . 386 SX . Four megabytes of memory (eight Mo strongly recommended) . 4 Mo of hard disk space (VeGtor 2.5 is 1 Mo uncompressed) * Features . Exports general vector formats : DXF (Autocad), EPS (PostScript)... . Exports GIS and Geographic Software formats : MIF (Map-Info), (NUM Cartes & Donne'es)... . Can export your format! Contact us for more details. . Imports bitmap formats (BMP, PCX and PBM). . Recognizes closed entities (polygons, lines and points), . Automatic labelizing of entities (closed entities, lines, points) . User definable labels for each entities. . User definable scale and coordinates. . Online help. . Smart assistant for complex operations. . Bitmap editor. * Misc Articque Informatique is looking for overseas distributors and partnership with Vector-Based software vendors.
