Adding a Material Shape
When you want to use material of a shape other than a circle (ellipse), quadrilateral, or diamond, add the shape.
Creating a Shape Using a Third-party Program
You can use a commercial paint-type program to create a shape, then register it with Dr. METAZA2. Vector data cannot
be used. Prepare bitmap data that meets the following conditions.
Number of colors : Binary (black and white -- Fill the interior of the shape with black, and make other portions white
or uncolored.)
File format : BMP or JPEG format
Alternatively, you can acquire (import) the shape of the material using a scanner. You acquire the shape by scanning
the material directly, or by making a paper copy of the shape of the material and then scanning the paper.

For detailed information, refer to the documentation for the scanner you're using.
