Giftbase 1.1
Instructions and
Supplementary Documentation
1. Instructions on printing documentation.
2. Instructions on registering.
3. Last minute additions/changes to Giftbase documentation file.
1. Instructions on printing documentation:
The GB.DOC file, which is the Giftbase Manual, is meant to be printed off on a
dot matrix printer in IBM mode. Send a condensed code and an 8 vertical lines
per inch code to the printer before printing. If you have a fixed tractor
feed printer, you may also want to offset the document from left about 20
spaces with a macro within your word processor.
Next:
C:\GB->type gb.doc>lpt1
It prints out about 100 pages.
Note: I use Multiprint 4.0, by Gerry Doyon, to print out the documentation.
It gives you an "at a glance" visual indication of where you are in the
printing of the document. Try it.
