Create Avis Books easily
Avis has the ability to handle graphics and create Newton books. With a little
know-how it's possible to generate Avis Backdrop compatible books. However this
process is not yet easy enough. What is needed is an option in the transport
menu of Newtscape that lets you save selected pictures (from the images cache)
as Avis compatible Newton books. The process would be something like this...
1. Select the cache images
2. choose "export to Avis backdrop"
3. respond to a dialog where you can choose 1. the bit depth
to use for the pictures, and 2. the model Newton to prepare it for (the default
is your machine), and 3. whether to use landscape or portrait (the default is
the current orientation).
4. The pictures would be converted into an Avis compatable
Newton book (if the ability to store multiple pictures in one book were added
to Avis, then the user would be given the option of saving the the selected
images in one book or several
