Pynomo, which is written in Python does alignment nomograms very well if you have the equation already. http://www.pynomo.org/ It is highly sophisticated, and free. Ron Doerfler's blog has some great posts on the "Art of Nomography" http://www.myreckonings.com/wordpress/ from those links you should be able to find your way to more resources. The author you were trying to think of was probably "Otto", who wrote a very good book on nomography. E.
