README.TXT: LETTERHEAD PRO FOR WORDSTAR 7 AND HIGHER
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This README.TXT file may be printed from inside WordStar or at the
DOS prompt with the PRINT README.TXT command or TYPE README.TXT > PRN
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: WHEN YOU INSTALL LETTERHEAD PRO FILES, A FILE NAMED CLEANUP.EXE IS
PLACED IN YOUR WORDSTAR DIRECTORIES. THIS FILE WILL REMOVE ALL TRACES OF
LETTERHEAD PRO WHEN YOU ARE THROUGH USING IT. DO NOT TYPE "CLEANUP" AND
STRIKE THE ENTER KEY IN YOUR WORDSTAR DIRECTORIES UNTIL FINISHED WITH
LETTERHEAD PRO. IF YOU DO SO, YOU WILL HAVE TO REPEAT THE LETTERHEAD PRO
INSTALLATION PROGRAM.
Thank you for your interest in Letterhead Pro. This program requires only
that you have WordStar 7.0 or higher installed. Because the macro language
was first released in WordStar 7.0, prior releases of WordStar may not be
used. Letterhead Pro will set up 16 graphic sample letterheads, 6 logos, and
1 watermark into WordStar. Each letterhead and the watermark has a macro that
installs it into any WordStar document when the macro is activated.
After the initial installation is completed, WordStar will automatically be
called up with a document entitled LETPRO.DOC on screen. (It does not
contain the same information as this file.) LETPRO.DOC contains instructions
on how to use the installed macros, as well as instructions for designing
and ordering your own customized letterhead, logo, and watermark.
LETPRO.DOC is a WordStar 7.+ document and must be printed from inside
WordStar. You may use LETPRO.DOC to guide you through the display and
printing of the letterheads. The document was set up using COURIER 10cpi so
that it would print the order form and other items correctly on almost any
printer. You will be shown how you may obtain your own customized graphic
letterheads. All instructions, worksheets, and order forms are included.
You may design your own letterhead, convert your present printed letterhead,
or have CPI Software design a letterhead for you. CPI Software will place
this design into WordStar's graphic PIX format, add a macro, and return it to
you.
If the printer you are currently using will print WordStar graphics, it
will print graphical PIX letterheads. This includes lasers, ink jets, and
dot-matrix printers. You do NOT need special printer drivers or any other
add-ons to place a customized professionally created letterhead on your
WordStar documents. WordStar and Letterhead Pro are all you need.
Before starting the installation, refresh yourself on whether you used the
Normal or Custom installation when installing WordStar. If you do not
remember, then locate the path to the macro files, graphic files, and
WordStar document files. Use the Custom installation for Letterhead Pro
and type in the path data when prompted.
INSTALLATION
Letterhead Pro may be installed in one of three ways. It may also be removed
from your hard disk (uninstalled) using the CLEANUP command below.
1. Normal Installation:
This installation corresponds to the WordStar default installation, where
all the documents, are in the \WS directory, macros are in the \WS\MACROS
directory, and graphic images are in the \WS\INSET directory. If you
did not make any changes in the directory locations since installing
WordStar with the normal installation, then this is the method of choice.
2. Custom Installation:
This installation will let you place the document files, the macros, and the
graphics into any directory you wish. You must know the path to each of these
directories. For example, if you placed all documents into a directory named
"DOC" off the main "WS" directory on drive "C", then this would be the full
path:
C:\WS\DOC
You will be asked: a. the drive letter, b. the path for document files,
c. the path for macro files (files ending with .WSM), and c. the path for
graphic files (files ending with .PIX or WSG). If you are not sure how you
had installed WordStar, then use this method. Locate these files before the
installation, and write down their proper path. Even if you used the normal
WordStar installation, this method would work, if you know where the files
are located.
3. Manual Installation:
This method does not use the Letterhead Pro INSTALL program, but it must be
done exactly as follows:
a. Locate where the WordStar document files, macro files, and graphic
files are on your hard disk.
b. From the INSTALL disk, copy these files into the proper directory:
1. PRO.EXE into the documents directory.
2. MACROS.EXE into the macros directory.
3. GRAPHICS.EXE into the graphics directory.
c. PRO.EXE, MACROS.EXE, and GRAPHICS.EXE are self-extracting files. You need
only to type their names and strike the ENTER key, and the Letterhead Pro
file(s) will be extracted from them.
d. When the files are extracted, the file CLEANUP.EXE is used to remove all
Letterhead Pro files from the directory (see below) at a later time.
CAUTION: Do not activate this file by typing CLEANUP and striking the
ENTER key until you are finished using Letterhead Pro. CLEANUP.EXE
removes all Letterhead Pro files, and you would have to repeat the
installation to use the Letterhead Pro program.
e. After extracting all files, call up WordStar. When WordStar is on
screen, open the LETPRO.DOC file. Print the LETPRO.DOC file just as you
would print any WordStar document. Use the LETPRO.DOC instructions to
guide you through the printing of the letterheads. Then use the Worksheet
and Order Form to obtain your customized letterheads, logos, and
watermark.
UNINSTALLING LETTERHEAD PRO
The installation places the file CLEANUP.EXE into every directory where
Letterhead Pro files have been placed. When you wish to remove all installed
Letterhead Pro files, simply go into any directory and type:
CLEANUP and strike the ENTER key
You will be asked if you want to uninstall all Letterhead Pro files in that
directory. After pressing the ENTER key, you will be asked to confirm your
selection and all installed files will be removed, including CLEANUP.EXE.
