Picture Processing on the Amstrad PCW 8256/8512
"Many people think of the PCW as a word processor, but it can also produce high quality pictures, graphs and diagrams. This book contains numerous BASIC routines for all types of design. You can produce plans for an extension to your house, rotate it and view it from any angle and then print it out. You can design a kitchen, theatrical scenery, electronic circuits - all to your own specification. And then add text, move parts of the diagrams around, cut and paste different parts of them - the possibilities are endless."
