Hi all,
I'm a Maths teacher and for a long time, I used Artworks, aka the ancestor of Xara, on an Acorn Risc PC computer along with Techwriter, a scientific wordprocessor.
Both programs lived happily together and It was such a joy to drag and drop the vector files inside a Techwriter frame for import of schematics... Wanting to edit something in the file, I CTRL-double-clicked on the vector frame inside TW and could edit the file in Artworks, then save and the result would appear in TW's frame. Brilliant !
Now, I no longer use the RISC PC and have a WinPC instead. I can now use many advanced programs on my PC but creating Wordprocessor files with Xara is rather awkward, because as far as I know, LibreOffice doesn't import SVG as true SVG but as raster file ! As a workaround, I save as WMF from Xara then import into LibreOffice (and copy-paste doesn't transfer the vector file but a raster file).
So, does anyone use LibreOffice and Xara in a satisfactorily manner ? If so, I'd love ot hear from you ! I do not want to get rid of LO because the formula editor is so great.
Thank you
