Mapping in OCAD
The NSWRA owns a copy of "OCAD 8", a program for drawing maps. It requires a computer running Windows 95 or later. It uses its own proprietary vector data format which means your first job is to get your map into this format. OCAD offers two ways to do this.
- The draft map is scanned and displayed as a template in the background on the screen. The map is then drawn over that template.
- Import an existing map in DXF or AI (Adobe Illustrator) format. DXF does not support bezier curves so data in this format would not be a good choice for a rogaine map.
