If you're a programmer, or if you know someone who is: Run MP.Exe
(on EGA/VGA monitors) and watch for MP's custom screen fonts, lines,
mouse cursor shapes and "hour glass" symbols. These are part of
our Font Pak programmer's edition, which ANY programmer can use.
"Catalog.Doc" has descriptions of Font Pak and our other programs.
┌─────────────────────┐
│ ┌─────────────────┐ │ Multi-Print will turn your PC
│ │ │ │ into a real printing machine.
│ │ │ │
│ │≡≡ Multi-Print ≡≡│ │ Consider this : : :
│ │ │ │
│ │ │ │ * On-disk manuals (like this
│ └─────────────────┘ │ one), program source code,
└──▄──Θ──Θ──Θ──────▄──┘ "readme" and other text
┌─────────▀───────────────▀─────────┐ files often have 10, 20,
│┌─────────────────┐┌──────────────┐│ 50, up to 200 pages.
││ by Pro~Formance ││ ────┐────── ■││
│└─────────────────┘├──────────────┤│ * If you print these in normal
│ ≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡ │ ■││ portrait mode, you'd consume
└───────────────────┴──────────────┴┘ 10 - 200 sheets of paper!
But Multi-Print prints these same files on just 2-50 sheets of paper,
saving up to 85% of the paper you normally use! With MP you can:
* Print FIVE different ways on Epson, LaserJet or DeskJet printers
(2 portrait options and 3 landscape (sideways) options)! Print
1- or 2-sided. Use 2-sided in normal portrait mode on ANY printer!
- Portrait options include Newspaper, 2-column and Normal formats.
- Landscape (sideways) options include Booklet, Left-to-Right
and Wide, 1-column formats. MP's Wide, 1-column format is
great for printing forms, spreadsheets, database or other
wide data, with up to 210 characters-per-line -- sideways.
In most cases you can print 1-sided or 2-sided (Booklets, by
definition, are 2-sided). 2-sided printing allows up to 500+
lines of text on each sheet of paper! You not only save paper,
but you can also scan 2-6 pages at once instead of just 1!
* Do all of this on EPSON, LaserJet or DeskJet Plus and 500
printers (and compatibles), using Letter, Legal or A4 paper.
That's right! Even on Epson printers you can print sideways,
in landscape mode, in 3 different ways.
And LaserJet or DeskJet users will enjoy MP's 16 hand-crafted,
high-quality fonts to improve the appearance of printed text,
or to simply give you variety.
Multi-Print's output is so good that MP is used in commercial,
corporate and government settings to print newsletters, catalogs,
brochures, product or program summaries, program manuals, etc.
And unlike most text-printing programs, Multi-Print is menu-driven
(there are few arcane command-line switches to remember), supports
a mouse, and even has features designed to make you smile. Finally,
MP saves most options you choose so next time you run it, MP pre-
selects options YOU prefer.

MP offers many options
──────────────────────
* Print in 5 different ways to suit your needs or preferences.
* Print on Letter (8.5 x 11), Legal (8.5 x 14) or A4 paper.
* Print titles with page numbers, the date, and the name of the
file you're printing (or a custom title) ── in any combination.
Print titles at the TOP or BOTTOM of each page in several styles.
* Print both sides, the front or the back, or a range of pages.
The option to print a range of pages (available in registered
versions) is useful to skip pages, or to re-print pages your
printer damaged the first time through.
* Control Top, Left and Right Margins. "Wrap" long lines of text
(Lasers only). Print to LPT1, 2 or 3 or "to a file." And more!
