[Gimp-user] Golden Letters #2

2005-11-29 Thread Michael Henke



Hi all,

I managed to create the Golden Letters thanks to 
Olivier Ripoll, but now I've got a 2nd question, how can I use this image in 
Microsoft Frontpage? I tried to copy and Paste, but that didn't work out very 
well.

Thanks in advance,

Michael Henke

You could start by telling us what exactly didn't work out very well.

Hi Alexandre,

I tried to install it as root in the Linux machine. I did not make any
changes in the config.h. These are the steps specified in the README file.

0. Edit config.h - only a couple of items there you might need to change.
1. xmkmf
2. make Makefiles
3. make
4. make dist

1. output of xmkmf command
===

+ mv -f Makefile Makefile.bak

First off, this is a *really* old version of the tools - see the web
site:
http://www.ximba.org/gfxmuse/download.html

If you're using GIMP 1.2 then you need the old version 2.0.  If you're
using GIMP 2.2 or later you need the beta version (which should work
just fine) - 3.0.0B2.

I'm not sure what the problem is, but grab the new versions and try
again. If it dstill doesn't work then email me and I'll see if I can
help you get it compiled.  

Gotta run - I'm late for a meeting at work.

You could start by telling us what exactly didn't work out very well. 


Michael (S),

I think he means that Copy/Paste does not work for him between Gimp and 
Frontpage.


To Michael (H),

I do not have frontpage, but I tried with Word.
To copy/paste successfully from Gimp to word, try to use Edit-Copy to 
clipboard instead of Edit-Copy.
Another way is to use copy but to paste to another software such as 
Irfan Viewer and then to copy paste from Irfan to Word (Frontpage).

Shouldn't be needed with a recent GTK+ (thus recent version of GIMP
don't include this plug-in). But see yourself, this already shows that

gimp will only use what the font delivers. you will need to find a font
that has a bold version.

the gimp freetype plug-in (freetype.gimp.org) might have something like
that available.  i haven't looked in a while.

personally, i respect the font about this.  one way that font authors
(could) make money for their efforts (and making a font is no easy task)
is to release the regular font for free and then to sell the complete
set.  personally, i think that any software app that allows users to
over-ride this option that the font makers have should be made illegal
and its sales considered at least a misdeameanor of theft in civil

The default font for me is Sans.  If I click the button next to the
font name, with images of Aa in that font, I get a font selection
dialog.  I can then select Sans Bold or Sans Italic or Sans Bold
Italic or any of a wide range of other such fonts.  YMMV.

Admittedly it's not as easy as selecting a block of text and clicking a
make this bold button; the font selection is a bit more low-level than
that.

There is no Layers and Paths dialog. There is a Layers dialog and a

Maybe you want to save as the image as a gif, png, or jpeg
