Some free vector files
Re: Some free vector files
okay, i downloaded some of the files. What do I have to do to be able to use them in SCAL? Just when I think I know what I am doing, i don't.
Re: Some free vector files
These are EPS files, so you will need a program that can open EPS and then save as SVG files so that SCAL can import them. I downloaded most of them. PM me your e-mail address and let me know which ones you like and I will send them to you as SVG files.

Re: Some free vector files
There are directions here for making svg files from eps with an open source (free) program called Scribus. http://chrisdown.wordpress.com/2007/12/ ... onversion/ It sounds pretty easy. I haven't tried it because my laptop is old enough (nearly at the end of its life) that I don't want to put anything extra on it.

Thanks for the link to Scribus, I have donwloaded it, but don't have enough space on my lap top either. I will download it later on my PC and see how it works.

Re: Some free vector files
I downloaded Scribus and thought I downloaded Ghostscript which it said I needed
and when I open Scribus a warning sign comes up that says I'm missing "Ghostscript:
You cannot use EPS images or PostScript Print Previews"
which is what I need for the free vector files on here correct?
I'm not as computer literate as you guys
Maybe I need to shut down, I'll try that first. but not sure.
Thanks for any help you can give me.
