Publisher's description
From PAOLO MARCUCCETTI :fitPlot overview
The goal of this application is simple:
- place various pdfs (or other common graphic formats files such as jpg, tif, gif, eps, psd, image in the pasteBoard) on a virtual plotter sheet;
- arrange all objects in a WYSIWYG environment moving and rotating them;
- print the so arranged plotter sheet and eventually save it for later printings.
Who may need this program?
- CAD users that may have to print several small drawings or more copies of a small drawing, can save their print job as pdf then drop their result on a larger format sheet in fitPlot.
- Print services may find in fitPlot a quick and tiny preprint application. It may be useful to prepare visually more copies of an image in the choosen plotter format sheet, optionally giving images trim marks, resizing, rotating etc..
- Web surfers who want a quick way to print found images. Keep an A4 (or Letter) format open aside while surfing on the web and drop on it the images I want to print. Easy and fast.
I know this can be done with blazoned vectorial applications, but here we have a small program that just do it, nothing less, nothing more.
You can set plotter sheets sizes choosing from the page formats popup in the page setup menu where you can create your own paper sizes in the usual way other Mac applications does.
In addition you can set the page margins characteristic of any printer / plotter and have a visual check of what is eventually out of the print area.
The 1.1 version is a full document based application. Now you can save your work for later printing.
Now you can save and collect your models (templates) to easy retrieve them. A new template file architecture enables you to prepare as many format as you want for any printer/plotter to have them quickly at your disposal (avoiding to call the page setup each time you need a new sheet format).
Undo / redo is now available for all objects operations.
The program is shareware. A watermark will be printed on the center of the sheet unless you request the password to avoid this.
What's new in this version:
Improvements and bugs solved in this maintenance version.
- Pasteboard images saved.
Until this version, images pasted in FitPlot from other programs were not saved to disk and lived until the document was closed, being impossible to found them again on the disk due to the nonexistent path.
This problem has been solved this way:
Each time a pasteboard image is pasted (or dropped from another app, like a browser, for example), the program acts acc... see all new features
