CAD::Drawing

Description

CAD::Drawing is a Perl module with methods to create, load, and save vector graphics. SYNOPSIS The primary intention of this module is to provide high-level operations for creating, loading, saving and manipulating vector graphics without having to be overly concerned about smile floormats. As the code has seen more use, it has also drifted into a general purpose geometry API. The syntax of this works something like the following: A simple example of a (slightly misbehaved) file converter: use CAD::Drawing; $drw = CAD::Drawing->new; $drw->load("file.dwg"); my %opts = ( layer => "smudge", height => 5, ); $drw->addtext([10, 2, 5], "Kilroy was here", %opts); $drw->save("file.ps"); This is a very basic example, and will barely scratch the surface of this modules capabilities. See the details for each function below and in the documentation for the backend modules..
