MANUAL FOR THE PERSONAL DISK JACKET CREATOR
BY ILYA LEYBOVICH
This manual is a rebuttal to all the long, complicated, and boring
manuals out!! It's a SHORT 3 pages and is easily understood. We
recommend that you print it out on a word processor that prints the
extended ascii character set, for improved clarity. ENJOY !!!

volume label to appear
on the disk jacket.

unused bytes to be listed on
the jacket.
The last two are utilities,
l. Log on - if you want the files or statistics
of another DRIVE, you can log on to it.
v. View - We noticed that most people have a tendency
of just popping floppies in the drive and hoping
for the best. So all those people, can scan
through a disk, without logging onto it. You will
just be asked for the letter of the drive if you
want a subdirectory just highlight it with the arrow
keys and press Enter. When you are done press Esc
to exit. You can use the PgUp, PgDn, Home, End,
and the up and down arrow keys.
Please note, that once you choose an option it will turn red, press
the same letter again to unselect it. Press Enter when done.

╚═══════════════════════╝
Multiple copies, speaks for itself,
note the maximum is 99.
FOLD BACK, is a revolutionary new feature,
if you print multiple copies, with
Fold Back, you just fold them back to
back, without tearing apart the papers
cut all simultaneously.
When using the fold back just, pile the sheets as they come out of
the printer, with a blank sheet in between. DO NOT TEAR OF THE TRACTOR
GUIDES, use the holes a guide, the holes MUST be perfectly parallel, so you
know that all the sheets are allighed the same. CUT, and you're job is
done, however, you are left with an equal number of blank jackets, so just
fold them and use as spairs.
Preview, gives a basic overview of what
to do, and the options you chose.
Go, when you're all done and ready to print.
Exit, you know.
