Message-ID: <1397@ttidca.TTI.COM> Date: Tue, 27-Oct-87 11:41:00 EST Article-I.D.: ttidca.1397 Posted: Tue Oct 27 11:41:00 1987 Date-Received: Sat, 31-Oct-87 05:37:48 EST Reply-To: svirsky@ttidcc.UUCP (William Svirsky) Distribution: na Organization: Citicorp/TTI, Santa Monica Lines: 14 Is it possible to get a true WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) paint program and/or hardware for the PC without shelling out big bucks? The main problem I am having is with rotation, which is a must for my purposes. When I rotate text 90 degrees for example, the "unsquare" aspect ratio of the monitor distorts the text. Is this true for all monitors/adapters/paint programs? Even if the software can scale the image when it prints it so that it comes out "square", I don't want to have to print it over and over just to see what it really looks like. Am I going to have to buy a Macintosh? Thanks in advance. -- Bill Svirsky, Citicorp+TTI, 3100 Ocean Park Blvd., Santa Monica, CA 90405 Work phone: 213-450-9111 x2597 svirsky@ttidca.tti.com | ...!{philabs,psivax,trwrb,csun}!ttidca!svirsky
