For Internal Xerox Use Only
ImagerExamplesImpl
Look at this for some examples of how to use the Imager to do some simple synthetic graphics, and create an Interpress master from them. ImagerExample.cm will run it through its paces.
RandomImagerImpl
A program that stress-tests the Imager. Also makes a flashy demo. To run it continuously, say "RandomImager: to the CommandTool; stop it with the CommandTool's STOP! button. Use the interpreter to change parameters; the following are interesting:
SetGrayImage: PROC [rootName: ROPE];
SetColorImage: PROC [rootName: ROPE];
nfonts: NAT ← 9;
fontName: ARRAY [0..35) OF ROPE;
Converting from Cedar Graphics
