LogoMaker - improved, and now multi-platform.

Please, please, please follow the instructions fully when installing. They are at the top of the Skill file and also here:

Download and install the precompiled potrace release suitable for your platform:
  http://potrace.sourceforge.net/download
 set the POTRACE_PATH environment variable to the path to the executable
  eg. C:\utils\potrace

 Download and install the precompiled ImageMagick release suitable for your platform
 This may not be necessary if you use Linux as ImageMagick is often included in Linux installations:
  http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php
  eg. http://www.imagemagick.org/download/binaries/ImageMagick-6.5.3-Q16-windows.zip
 If the path to the ImageMagick convert.exe file is not in your system path then set the MAGICK_HOME
 environment variable to the path to the convert executable. (Run "convert -version" in a system shell to test).
  eg. C:\utils\ImageMagick\ImageMagick-6.5.1-3

 Install logoMaker_public.il into your skill folder.
 Add load("logoMaker_public.il") to the allegro.ilinit file in your pcbenv folder.

Happy logoing,

Dave

    Hi Dave,

    Are you aware of any issues with running allegro.exe as user and not being able to use the logomaker?
    I get these errors in Command Window:
    E- File save problem: Not enough storage is available to process this command.
    E- *Error* axlFormColorize: argument #1 should be any user-defined (other) type (type template = "otgg") - nil

    Logomaker does load fine when running the program as Administrator.

    Software:
    Windows 10x64
    OrCAD/Allegro 17.2-S009
    ImageMagick-7.0.4-Q16
    potrace-1.13.win64
    logomaker 3.7

    I have tried with earlier versions of ImageMagick as well.

    Kind regards,
    Anders Pedersen
