PostScript, PDF, EMF, SVF, SWF and CGM exporter

this free library includes all those formats.. i was thinking that if you could do what you did with the pdf library with this library instead, it would be a lot more flexible.
Just a thought..

If anybody else could get a sketch working using this library, please let me know..

yeah, i've used this library for other projects so i'm familiar enough with it to add it, and have given it some thought. though i'm happy enough with PDF that it hasn't been a super high priority.

if you'd like to see it happen file it as an "enhancement" in the bugs db so that it gets onto my list.

well, in swf you could save animations, which is alot cooler than just a regular pdf..
And i seem to have another problem with the pdfs.. when i scale them _large_ .. they get jagged edges.. is there a way to make a path instead of drawing lines from previous point to  current point in the pdf library that is currently available?

does vg support exporting swf animations though? usually swf export in this sort of context is just a static, single image (like the way illustrator does, or at least did originally).

you should be able to draw continuous lines using beginShape(LINE_STRIP), but if you're having problems with that sort of thing, please post a program in the "programs" section of the board.

Well.. it _is_ possible.. but not exactly implemented in that library, as far as i could understand..
