1.8.5.2 Inserting Annotations
BOOK 1 - WELLCAD BASICS - 229
The annotation tools are the same as for the Borehole Document. Arrows, strings,
bitmaps and callouts can be added to your cross-plot chart. As opposed to the
Borehole Document no annotation layers need to be created first.
Display the Annotation Bar or Annotation MiniBar selecting the corresponding
option from View > Toolbars (or press CTRL + 5 respectively CTRL + 6).
Details of the annotation tools can be found in 1.6 Annotations.
1.8.5.3 Printing and graphic file export
Once you have setup the cross-plot chart, extended it with annotations and adjusted
its layout, you have basically two options to output the graphics:
� Use File > Export to create a Bitmap (*.BMP), JPEG (*.jpg), Windows
Enhanced Metafile (*.EMF) or other graphic file format.
� Use File > Print Setup, Page Setup and Print to define the print page
size and send the cross-plot to a printer for a hardcopy or printer driver to
create a *.PDF.
Page Setup
The Page Setup option allows to
add margins on each side of the
cross-plot. E.g. if you wish to print
only on the upper half of an A4
sheet, set the Bottom margin to
140mm.
1.8.5.4 Using cross-plot chart templates
Page Setup dialog box
It is possible to save a template of your cross-plot chart into a separate Chart
Template File (*.CHT). Please note that this is different from saving your cross-plot
charts as part of a Borehole Document template file.
A Chart Template stores only the layout and setup information of your current
cross-plot chart. No data or information about the borehole document or other
