ASTON IMPORT
The Aston Import option gives you the ability to read Aston files and work with
them in the Deko environment.
To open the Aston Import window:
1. Insert the Aston disk into the appropriate drive and close the drive
door.
2. Activate a graphic window.
3. From the View menu, choose Aston Import.
To convert an Aston file to a Deko file:
1. In the Aston Import window, navigate to the directory that
contains the Aston file, and click the file to select (highlight) it.
2. Click the Convert button. Deko converts the file and opens it in the
active graphic window.
Note Once you have converted an Aston file, you can use it just as
you would any other Deko graphic, and you can save it as a
.dko file.
To map an Aston font to a TrueType font:
1. In the Font Mapping section of the Aston Import window, find the
Aston font in the lefthand column. Deko automatically maps Aston
fonts into default fonts supported by Deko.
2. Double-click the corresponding Deko font and select a new font
from the drop-down list.
