Printscreen 95 Version 2.5 Update Notes
_______________________________________________________________________
Thanks for downloading Printscreen 95. Following is a description of the
new operating characteristics and enhancements:
The new version re-defines the PRINT KEY on the keyboard to function as
a "real" screen print key, and allows you to print the entire screen by
selecting PRINT, and will print only the active window if ALT + PRINT
are pressed together.
Pressing the PRINT KEY froma DOS prompt will print the text contents of
the DOS application. Windows does not recognize line draw characters,
however; and will print + and - sign characters instead of line draw
characters if the screen contains text boxes or other line draw componenets.
***IMPORTANT!***
The video driver selected in Windows Setup must be a 256 color (or fewer)
selection. Using a 32K, 64K or 16.7 Million color driver will produce an
"Error printing client" message.***
The program may be disabled with the radio button on the
form, which allows images to be copied to the clipboard and pasted into
and out of different applications, as is typically done in Windows.
Version 2.5 now supports printing 256 color bitmap images, unlike the first
version which was limited to 16 color printing. An option is also provided
to save the screen or active window image to a .BMP file.
The program operates by capturing the image loaded to the clipboard as the
print key is pressed, sending it to be printed, and then then clears the
contents of the clipboard to anticipate the next print screen operation. It
therefore becomes necessary to disable the program when "normal" usage of
the clipboard is required.
Registration Fee: $15.00. Send a check or money order to obtain a
registration number in order to use the program on an unlimited basis.
