2.5 Export of text and curves
Copy text or curves to clipboard
MAIN WINDOW / Edit / Copy (Ctrl+C)
Text report: Copy the selected text in the text
subwindow to the clipboard. If no text is se-
lected, the whole content of the subwindow is
copied.
Curves: Copy substance, segment or calibration
curve to the clipboard.
Note: With VA Database under Windows 95, curves are copied to
the clipboard in square size. If you import the curves into other
programs from the clipboard, always resize the graphic window
to its initial aspect ratio, otherwise axes, labels, and texts are not
displayed correctly. Alternatively, export and import the curve in
the
*.emf , *.wmf or *.bmp format where the aspect ratio is retained.
Export of curves
MAIN WINDOW / Edit / Export as Metafile... ( *.wmf )
MAIN WINDOW / Edit / Export as Enhanced Metafile... ( *.emf )
MAIN WINDOW / Edit / Export as Bitmap... ( *.bmp )
The content of the current curve subwindow will
be saved as a graphics file on the hard disk. The
destination directory and the file name have to
be entered in the appearing
EXPORT window.
The graphics file can be imported into other pro-
grams like Microsoft Word or Excel.
Note: Some programs (e.g. Microsoft Word 6 and 7) cannot im-
port of files in the
*.emf format. In this case, export and import the
curve in the
*.wmf
or
*.bmp
format.
For exporting curves to graphic files it is recommended to use
the
*.wmf or *.emf format for better resolution and the possibility to
rescale the graphics.
