Generate a nice 2D floorplan

I am just starting with Sweet Home 3D. I looked at some of the examples from the gallery (http://www.sweethome3d.com/gallery.jsp) and I am really impressed. However, I couldn't figure out how can I generate these nice 2D floorplans, see e.g. example SweetHome3DExample8.sh3d on that page.

The image http://www.sweethome3d.com/images/galle ... 8-Plan.jpg is just an image built by copying-pasting the two levels of the plan in an image tool (but I could have also done it with a word processing program).
In case you're a Linux user, copying the plan to the clipboard might not work in which case you should export it to SVG format and edit it with Inkscape.

Thanks for a quick reply. How can you generate each one of these images? The only thing I could see was more like http://www.sweethome3d.com/images/galle ... e-Plan.jpg, with these ugly rectangles for furniture.
