!XP1ReDraw and !XP1Draw2SVG Samples

I drew all these using Acorn’s !Draw on a Risc PC or a Pi, using !Xp1ReDraw to produce the various non-standard dashed line (including both the railway and river special lines, with a customized version of ReDraw – ask if you need such a version!), then converted them to SVG using my !XP1Dr2SVG on the Pi.
I converted all the text to paths before doing the conversions – !XP1Dr2SVG can convert RISC OS text to SVG text, but even at best it’s never exactly the same.

You can click in most of the images for a larger version, then again for a larger one still.

Click here for more diagrams that appear elsewhere on my website, all done in !Draw and converted with !XP1Draw2SVG – some less comprehensible out of context than others!

Here’s another layout for a Hindi keyboard.

An illustration for Exile, done with some help from my artist daughter.

If anyone is interested, here are a few illustrations I did in !Draw for my novel, Going Forth. Sadly I no longer have the original drawfiles, only the jpegs I made by taking screenshots with !Paint and converting to jpeg with !ChangeFSI.

And here are a few patterns generated by a fairly simple BASIC app I wrote, produced initially as Draw files, then converted to .svg.
