│ │ │ │ + Newer versions of MS Windows (2000, XP, Vista, 7, \&.\&.\&.) will not accept WMF/EMF files generated when this option is set and the input contains text. But if this option is not set, then the WMF/EMF driver will estimate interletter spacing of text using a very coarse heuristic. This may result in ugly looking output. On the other hand, OpenOffice can still read EMF/WMF files where pstoedit delegates the calculation of the inter letter spacing to the program reading the WMF/EMF file. So if the generated WMF/EMF file shall never be processed under MS Windows, use this option. If WMF/EMF files with high precision text need to be generated under *nix the only option is to use the \-pta option of pstoedit. However that causes every text to be split into single characters which makes the text hard to edit afterwards. Hence the \-nfw option provides a sort of compromise between portability and nice to edit but still nice looking text. Again \- this option has no meaning when pstoedit is executed under MS Windows anyway. In that case the output is portable but nevertheless not split and still looks fine.

│ │ │ │ +.SS magick \- MAGICK driver compatible with version 6.9.11 of ImageMagick.
│ │ │ │ +This driver uses the C++ API of ImageMagick or GraphicsMagick to finally produce different output formats. The output format is determined automatically by Image\-/GraphicsMagick based on the suffix of the output filename. So an output file test.png will force the creation of an image in PNG format. This binary of pstoedit was compiled against version 6.9.11 of ImageMagick.
