EMT File Format
EMT File Format
The EMT (EVS Multi-Text) format is used to place 3D text (labels) with user adjustable font and alignment.
The format is:
Lines beginning with "#" are comments
Lines beginning with "FONT" are font specification lines (more later)
Lines beginning with "END" specify the end of the file (this is optional, but if you want to have anything after the last command or data line, precede it with an "END" statement.
All other lines are DATA lines specifying the x-y-z coordinates of a string and the text for that string.
Blank lines are ignored.
The FONT specification lines contain the following information in this order:
Size: The font size is the height of a typical Capitol letter in true user units
Justification: The justification options are the same as in post_samples
Plane: The plane options are the same as in post_samples
Orientation: The orientation options are the same as in post_samples
Red, Green, Blue: These 3 numbers determine the font color.
Resolution: The resolution parameter is the same as in post_samples
Depth: The parameter is the same as in post_samples
Bevel%: The Bevel percentage isthe same as in post_samples
Font Face: The Font Face options are the same as in post_samples
The DATA lines contain four columns of information:
X coordinate
Y coordinate
Z coordinate
Text: Everything on the line after the z coordinate (and trailing spaces) is the text to be placed at the above coordinate.
