LogoMaker - improved, and now multi-platform.

eDave

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,
    I down load this ImageMagick-6.8.3-3-Q16-x86-windows\ImageMagick-6.8.3-3 a few years ago.
    Since you mentioned to down load ImageMagick-6.5.3-Q16-windows.zip
    Is this the most updated one ?
    Should I update to the one that you posted or keep the same one I have, it is working great for me so far.
    Happy New Year
    Thanks,
    TiBo

    I believe I have everything installed correctly. Environment variables, skill file location.

    When I run logomaker, I get a PCB Editor HTML window titled Plugin Options with some basic install instructions. Nothing else happens.

    Windows 7

    OrCad 17.2 S027

    ImageMagick 7.07

    Potrace 1.15

    LogoMaker 3.7
