Arvind, The NEXUS format is used to represent phylogenetic trees, on which MorphoJ will map your shapes. You don't prepare 2D data in NEXUS format, as the software does not compute phylogenetic trees itself, See the MorphoJ documentation ( http://www.flywings.org.uk/MorphoJ_guide/frameset.htm?index.htm), specifically the item "Comparison Menu" -> "Map Onto Phylogeny" for details.
By the way, a comprehensive description of the NEXUS format can be found in the fine paper by Madison et al (1997): David R. Maddison, David L. Swofford, Wayne P. Maddison. " NEXUS: An Extensible File Format for Systematic Information". Systematic Biology, Vol. 46, No. 4 (Dec., 1997), pp. 590-621. Hope this helps.
