Print-Filer
Print-Filer is a very powerful printer utility, which opens new
avenues in the use of printed composition, offering an easy way of
printing fancy letter headings and other graphics in your text.
Print-Filer is loaded before you load the graphics software/ word
processor of your choice and will appear not to be there until you
instruct your software to print. At that point Print-Filer will spring
into action and offer you the choice of printing as usual, or re-routing
the printer output to a disk file. The disk file will then contain all the
necessary commands output by the print software to create the picture or
the text document. The file will simply contain everything intended to go
to the printer. By having this file, you can later print it without the
need for the original print software being present. But that's not all!
Print-Filer also comes with an editor, which will allow you to load in a
combination of outputs from any number of print software packages. These
can then be combined into one file which can simply be printed from DOS!
Imagine it, graphics and text together in one file which can simply be
printed from DOS!
Print-Filer is also a useful tool for word processor users who need to
have a fully formatted file which can be printed without the need for the
original word processor. This is perfect for creating document files for
disks and such like.
Print-Filer will only work with print software which uses a maximum of
48K. However, a special version has been included for Printshop users.
Print-Filer comes with a very extensive on-disk manual which explains in
detail how to use Print-Filer, along with hints and tips on how to get the
most out of the software. This manual comes in two formats: an Epson
version which will only print on Epson compatible printers, and a standard
text version for any printer.
You will need any XL/XE machine with 64K RAM or above, any disk drive, and
any printer.
