Ovation Pro resources

Ovation Pro is a desktop publishing system written by David Pilling that runs on the RISC OS operating system. There is also a version that runs on Windows based systems. I have used Ovation Pro many years for a large proportion of my graphic design work and book layout, including our own books, published under the Susan Crawford Vintage imprint. I've written a number of Ovation Pro applets, utilities, scripts and add-ons over the years, which can be found below, along with a tutorial on how to program using the built in Ovation Pro Script Language.
