I've tried to find an option in OpenOffice, but failed. Can anyone name me a program that can be used to do so? It can even be LaTeX, or a painting program that lets me construct a sigulum, like this: http://www-e.uni-magdeburg.de/ruge/verschiedenes/medien-als-manipulatoren/otto.gif Text at the top should be adjustable with its bottom towards the inner of the circle, text at the circle's bottom hould be adjustable with the bottom to the outer perimeter of the circle so both text is "standing up". A pictural figure should be placable in the inner of the circle. Colours should be applyable. Final output can be everything: Image formats like PNG or JPG, PDF files, Postscript. Suggestions, anyone? =^_^= Thank you! -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
