not working for Bamboo Slate a4

[kaushik-mrg]

Dear Sir, Thankyou for your code. I am sorry its not working for me as i am using Bamboo Slate a4 (here in section/media, we have Strokes not path) can you suggest how we can proceed

Hello,

It must be something on the format of the data generated by the slate. The unpack for the protobuf is standard, I don't think its protobuff error. Unfortunately this involves analysing the format with a hex editor to check manually what is the data. Try to follow the steps I did here:

I hope it helps!

I have the slate A4 as well. I changed line 326 of will_reader.py to ` return input_zip.read('sections/media/strokes2539138681126609676.protobuf')

and now I get this error Traceback (most recent call last): File "./will_reader_modifiziert.py", line 341, in (xData, yData, lineData) = processBuffer(buffer) File "./will_reader_modifiziert.py", line 300, in processBuffer (x, y, lineWidth) = decodeMessagePacket(messageBytes) File "./will_reader_modifiziert.py", line 260, in decodeMessagePacket debugPrint(struct.unpack('BBBB',messageBytes[nextPos:])) struct.error: unpack requires a buffer of 4 bytes

@allanninguem Hi Allan, now I have read your blog post. Not sure if my pull request is still useful. Anyway Thank you for this great software!

[martinsallandm]

Thanks you! I merged your request. Thank you for the contribution!

[v217]

Great! Thank you, I've made some more changes, but those are not yet ready for a pull request. I've noticed that you can upload several pages in one will-file.

[martinsallandm]

Ha cool!

Pages is something interesting to have %-)

The will_reader_slate_A4_cairo.py saves the file with cairosvg. svgtoipe does not support all svg features, so this is a temporary workaround. Since cairo supports natively vector-drawings I don't think it mangles too much with the original svg file.

Cool... But remember that the point is just to have the stroke path and strength, so those are the only two features that matters.

thanks!
