I looked in the promo.svg and it was also made in inkscape. I guess that is another learning curve. I actually found that LibreOffice made a better job for what I needed, but I'd still like to hear of any other ideas for making them. I've installed Dia, but it segfaults whenever I start it. I also tried sk1 but it seems pretty messed up - things disappear off screen and so on... -Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rapidly troubleshoot problems before they affect your business.
