This file contains help text to be displayed in the help window. It
must be formatted to fit in the window. Guidelines are:

  Length of lines = (HELP_DBOX_RIGHT - 2) - (HELP_DOBX_LEFT + 2) + 1 (52)
  # of lines = (HELP_DBOX_BOTTOM - HELP_DBOX_TOP) - 4                (11)

  (it looks better if we use <= 10 lines)

Each entry is formatted as follows:
  :00##          (Help-category number)
  !Some title    (Context-help title) | Sometimes these are
  |Some title    (Help-index title)   | the same
  Help text blah
  blah blah
  blah...

  (NOTE: All of above would normally start in leftmost column. It is
  moved over two columns here because this is just an example and
  we don't want the parsing routines to pick it up.)

The context-help title is the title to be displayed in the help window when
the user presses a help button or presses the F1 key. The help-index title
is the title to be displayed in the list of help topics that the user gets
when he chooses "Help index" from the Help Menu.

A ! or | on the line by itself signifies that there is no context-help
or help-index title, respectively for this message (i.e., this message
will be used for one or the other, but not both).

Mark (FIM) bar code that will appear on your mail-
piece and tells you what type of FIM bar code it is.

To create artwork for offset printing, etc., choose
"Yes" for registration marks, for ID text, and for
trim marks or corner marks. If your design runs off
the edge of the mailpiece, choose "Yes" for bleed
area. And for printing envelopes or exporting an
EPS file, you'll probably want to choose "No" for
all the options so that only the mailpiece itself
will be printed.
:0101
!"LAYOUT - POSTNET Bar Code" Box
|
In this box you can 1) use the "Colors" button to
choose a color for the POSTNET bar code, 2) use the
"Zoom" button to see a blowup of it. For a Courtesy
Reply Mailpiece, you can specify its position.

For a Business Reply Mailpiece, you can choose not
to print a POSTNET bar code. However, generally you
should say "Yes" for "Create POSTNET bar code?",
because the Postal Service charges more money to
process a mailpiece without a POSTNET bar code and
usually there is no good reason to omit it.
:0102
!"POSTNET Bar Code - Zoom" Box
|
This box shows a blowup of the POSTNET bar code that
will be printed on your mailpiece and displays the
ZIP Code that the bar code represents. Reply Mail

Address Box.

If you're creating a Courtesy Reply Mailpiece and
you entered a 9-digit ZIP Code for the mailing
address, this box will show 2 extra digits. The
delivery address dictates what these 2 digits will
be; they are used to create a POSTNET bar code that
pinpoints the delivery location.
:0111
!"Print - Print now" Box
|

This box lets you print the current mailpiece on
your laser printer or imagesetter.

(mirror-image) vs. normal for your printout.

above, if applicable. Then click on OK, or use the
Tab key to highlight OK and then press the Enter key.

|Printing: Basics
Use the Print Menu to print your mailpiece. It
appears when you activate it from the File Menu.

There are 3 ways to print: 1) you can print camera-
ready artwork for a mailpiece; 2) you can print
directly onto envelopes or cards; 3) you can print
several copies of a mailpiece on a page.

When printing for the first time, be sure to use
"Printer Setup" to make sure that Reply Mail
Designer is set up to work with your printer.

|Printing: Camera-Ready Artwork

Use the Layout Menu to create your mailpiece. Be
sure to use the "Perim Opts" box to select the
printer's marks that you want (trim marks,
registration marks, etc.).

Choose "Print now" from the Print Menu.

settings. Follow the instructions in the "Reply Mail
Designer User's Guide and Reference Manual" to pos-
ition the mailpiece properly. (You can save your

|Printing: Several Mailpieces Per Page
You can put several copies of a mailpiece on a page.

First use the Layout Menu to create your mailpiece.
(You'll probably want to say "No" for all "Perim
Opts" so that only the mailpiece itself will be
printed.)  Save the mailpiece.

Activate the Print Menu and choose "Paper/Position."
Use the "Paper" and "Position" Boxes to arrange the
mailpieces on the page. (You can save your settings
in a "Paper/Position file" for future use.) When
ready, choose "Print now" from the Print Menu.

|Bar Codes: Basics

Reply Mail Designer creates the required FIM and
POSTNET bar codes for your mailpiece. The settings
in the LAYOUT - Size & Type Box, the LAYOUT -
FIM Bar Code Box, and the LAYOUT - POSTNET Bar Code
Box determine which bar codes are created and where
they are positioned on the mailpiece.

The "Zoom" buttons in the LAYOUT - FIM Bar Code
Box and the LAYOUT - POSTNET Bar Code Box let you
see on-screen blowups of the bar codes that will be
printed.
:0524
!
|Bar Codes: FIM
The FIM (Facing Identification Mark) bar code is the
series of 5 or 6 tall vertical lines near the upper-
right corner of a Business Reply Mailpiece or
Courtesy Reply Mailpiece.

Reply Mail Designer prints one of 3 types of FIM bar
codes on your mailpiece: FIM A, FIM B, or FIM C. The
type of FIM bar code used on your mailpiece depends
on: 1) whether you're creating a Business Reply
Mailpiece or a Courtesy Reply Mailpiece, and 2)
whether your mailpiece has a POSTNET bar code.
:0525
!
|Bar Codes: POSTNET

The POSTNET bar code is a series of short vertical
lines that is printed on most Business Reply Mail-
pieces and Courtesy Reply Mailpieces. There are 32,
52, or 62 bars in a POSTNET bar code.

The POSTNET bar code on a Business Reply Mailpiece
represents the ZIP Code. The POSTNET bar code on a
Courtesy Reply Mailpiece represents the ZIP Code and
also pinpoints the physical delivery location (it is
sometimes called a Delivery Point Bar Code).

|EPS Files
Use the Export to EPS Menu to save a mailpiece as an
Encapsulated PostScript file. The Export to EPS Menu
appears when you activate it from the File Menu.

You can import the EPS file into a page-layout pro-
gram or an illustration program. Then you can incor-
porate it into a document, modify it, or enhance it.

CAUTION: BEFORE YOU IMPORT AN EPS FILE INTO ANOTHER
PROGRAM, BE SURE TO READ CHAPTER 5 IN THE USER'S
GUIDE AND REFERENCE MANUAL!!
:527
!
|EPS Files and the Demo Program
The Demo Program doesn't let you create EPS files,
but it comes with a sample EPS file (RMDSAMPL.EPS).
You can experiment with RMDSAMPL.EPS by importing it
into an illustration program or page-layout program.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you print the EPS file from a
program other than Reply Mail Designer, you might
notice that it's larger or smaller than it should be.
DON'T WORRY ABOUT THIS! The real Reply Mail Designer
program comes with instructions that explain how to
make sure your envelope or card is the right size.

to position one or more mailpieces on a page or
envelope. To open one, choose "Paper/Position" from

|Fonts
You can specify different fonts for different
text elements on your mailpiece.

dialog boxes for the Layout-Menu items. For example,
to specify fonts for the mailing address, click on
the "Fonts" button in the LAYOUT - Mailing Address
Box (or highlight it and press the Enter key).

Note that the "Printers" setting in the Print -
Printer Setup Box dictates which fonts you can use.

printed elements on a mailpiece; then when you print
the mailpiece you can use the "Print - Options" Box
to get a separate printout for each color.

To specify colors, you use the "Colors" buttons in
the dialog boxes for the Layout-Menu items. For
example, to specify colors for the mailing address,
click on  the "Colors" button in the LAYOUT -
Mailing Address dialog box (or highlight it and
