TEXT>DRAW  Chris Johnson, 1993-2003
====================================

 This application was written in response to a plea from
Brian Cowan in an issue of Archive magazine for a simple
utility to convert text into a draw object, and is meant for
use with RISC OS 3 or higher only.

 Text>Draw is NOT public domain, but remains the copyright
of Chris Johnson.

 To run the application, simply double click on its icon,
whereupon it will install on the iconbar. Clicking on the
iconbar icon will open the main window. Full help is
available from the application, both via the resident !Help
application of RISC OS, and from the application menu,
available by clicking the MENU button when over the iconbar
icon, or the main window.

 When run for the first time, the trinity font family will
be used as default. However, this can be changed, and new
defaults created once the program is running. When using
RISC OS 3 fonts which have kerning tables, then the draw
file produced will have kerned text if that option is set.
