- ÇThis is a demonstration of äG-Print, Ça new print formatting program
- for the Atari ST, STE, MEGA, and Stacy computers.
-
- äG-PrintÇ was designed with several kinds of people in mind. It's
- ideal for those whose favorite word processor is ü1st WordÇ, üWord
- Writer STÇ, or üSTWriterÇ because it can directly import files from
- these programs and print them in any GDOS font with many style and
- formatting options. Owners of the Atari Laser Printer can use äG-
- PrintÇ on two megabyte systems and still have room for several
- different fonts. äG-Print Çcan print the mathematical (½µ±√) and
- foreign language (öñá¿ç) symbols in your ST's character set too!
- Finally,ä G-Print Çis perfect for owners of unexpanded STs because
- it leaves enough memory for fonts. Some of the goodies available
- are
-
- * üNovice ModeÇ for new users presents only the most commonly used
- options with explanations of each.
- *ü Multiple ColumnsÇ
- * üRotated PagesÇ
- * Automatic formatting of übookletsÇ on rotated 8-1/2 by 11 paper.
- * Different fonts for üheaders and footersÇ
- * üSuperscriptsÇ and üSubscriptsÇ
- * A special éExtra Font Çwhich you can set to replace seldom-used
- options in your word processor such as light print.
- * üASCII filesÇ can be printed with several options for handling
- line breaks and absolute TABS
- * üMicrospace justificationÇ to get those clean columns you see in
- magazines.
- * Flexible üTitle PageÇ option
- * üRulesÇ between columns or at the top and bottom of the page
- * Square and rounded übordersÇ around each page or just the title
- page.
- * Ability to reassign üspecial text effectsÇ so all of your
- underlined text can, for example, be printed as êoutlinedÇ text
- * Automatic üpage numberingÇ starting with any number
- * üAdjustable marginsÇ
- * üTypographical Quotation MarksÇ automatically generated from the
- "standard quotation marks" in your file.
- * üQuick previewÇ feature to let you see how many pages you have and
- where the lines break
- * üTrue preview Çfeature (optionally with screen fonts) to see just
- how your page will look before you print it out -- including
- borders, rules, headers, and footers
- * Support for üinchesÇ and ücentimetersÇ in dialogs
- * Ability toü run a programÇ from within äG-Print Çso that you can run
- your word processor without leaving äG-PrintÇ if you spot a typo
- while previewing
- * üConfiguration fileÇ system to let you set up äG-PrintÇ to start up
- the way you want it or to set up multiple configurations for the
- kinds of documents you print most often.
-
- As if that weren't enough, it also counts your words for you. And
- äG-PrintÇ doesn't use much memory. The program has been
- deliberately kept small to free up valuable memory for your
- documents and fonts. It runs fine on an unexpanded 520ST with a
- single-sided disk drive and a nine or twenty-four pin printer,
- (although it is not possible to run large programs from withinä G-
- PrintÇ on such a system).
