DeCard project (Delphi)
Program allows to create set of the similar cards using template - rapid prototyping followed by improvement.
Template is SVG file with some expansions. Result - png/svg/pdf/jpg
Each cards-project is stored in a separate directory and consists of:
- SVG-template;
- text table (delimited with tabs);
- subdirectory with pictures;
- subdirectory local fonts;
- can include an additional library of SVG-elements (clipart).
These names of files and directories are stored in XML-project file.
The basic principle: there are no "drag and drop" actions, only "text of this table cell is... ":
- wrapped text in this area
- filename of picture
- color, font size, scale (any SVG attribute)
