IMWA v1.3 continued...
I am now working on re-formatting all of the current IMWA symbols  
into the standard format of version 1.3. As I finish each 96  
positions for one symbol, I post it on the web. So there are already  
the following symbols correctly formatted in 1.3 and posted on the  
web for download:

01-01-001
01-01-002
01-01-003
01-01-004
01-01-005
01-01-006
01-01-007
01-01-009
01-01-010
01-01-011
01-01-012
01-01-013
01-02-001
01-03-001
01-05-001
01-05-011
01-05-012
01-10-001
01-10-002
01-10-011

So Trevor, or anyone who is interested in creating a vectorized  
version of the IMWA, you could start on that work immediately by  
downloading the symbols that are already finished. To download, go to  
this web page:

Download IMWA v1.3 Symbols
http://www.movementwriting.org/symbolbank/IMWA-Downloads.html

Any vectorized version will need to be sure to keep the white area  
painted white...it cannot be see-through...This is something specific  
to the IMWA and not older symbolsets...

I know this is a HUGE job, and I expect nothing. I know everyone is  
very busy. This is really a dream - something that would be lovely,  
but not absolutely necessary either, because we are managing with  
bitmaps well enough ;-)

If you need more information, just ask. Here is another picture of  
the standard format of the symbols in IMWA 1.3...
