- DocuPower Pro 2.2
- #################
-
- A total document management system. Never misplace a file again!
- Fully compatible with all versions of Word for Windows:
- WinWord 2.x and WinWord 6.x (the latest version).
-
- DocuPower Pro smashes the eight character DOS file name barrier!
-
- Give long, descriptive names to your documents - up to 60
- characters long. DocuPower Pro makes it easy to quickly
- access your work. On stand-alone PC's as well as across networks,
- it can completely organize your documents.
-
- Best of all, it integrates seamlessly into Word for Windows.
- It's easy to use because it has the same look and feel as WinWord.
- Upon installation it adds itself directly to your WinWord menus,
- so it's always on hand. (In fact, in WinWord 6.x DocuPower Pro
- has its OWN separate DocuPower menu containing five of the most
- essential DocuPower Pro commands.)
-
- Powerful Features
- #################
-
- * Go beyond the eight character DOS file name barrier. With
- DocuPower Pro you can give your documents real, meaningful
- descriptions - up to 60 characters long!
-
- * Point and click to instantly open any document, anywhere
- on your PC or network.
-
- * It's easy to be organized. Create an unlimited number of
- folders for your documents, and give each folder its own
- descriptive title.
-
- * Get up and running with DocuPower Pro FAST. Add large batches
- of documents to folders at the same time.
-
- * Each folder holds an *unlimited* number of document
- descriptions. Add as many as you like, because they'll be
- displayed in alphabetical order. Simply touch the keyboard
- to jump immediately to any part of the list.
-
- * Toggle folder list displays instantly between DocuPower Pro
- document descriptions and DOS file names.
-
- * One file can appear in multiple folders simultaneously.
- This enables you to organize the same material in different
- ways while avoiding version control problems.
-
- * Because it's tightly integrated into Winword, DocuPower Pro
- will automatically prompt you every time you save a new file.
- So you're never more than one keystroke or mouse click away
- from adding your new work directly to a folder.
-
- * Sophisticated folder management allows you to create, rename,
- or delete entire folders. Plus you can easily move documents
- from one folder to another.
-
- * Print single or multiple copies of a document directly from
- any folder - you don't even need to open the file first.
-
- * Print all documents in a folder with just one command.
-
- * Fax documents directly from a folder.
-
- * Insert the contents of one document into another. Clicking the
- "Insert" button lets you perform automated document assembly.
-
- * Integrated File Find and Text Search utilities find the files
- you need fast. Search on DOS wildcards (e.g. *.doc). Search for
- text fragments (e.g. all files containing the phrase "Balance
- Due"). And once you find the files you need, add them directly
- to DocuPower Pro folders.
-
- * Integrated file management functions enable you to make
- directories, copy, rename, delete or move files. The file
- management window is easy and intuitive to use - a dual list
- box with file names on the left, and your descriptions on the
- right. Do it all without ever leaving Winword or DocuPower Pro.
-
- * Print a detailed folder status report. List document
- descriptions and file names for all documents in any folder.
-
- * Free DocuPower Pro Tool Kit includes powerful utilities:
- Close All Open Files; Exit Windows; Restart Windows;
- Run Program (Command Line); Windows System Status.

- DANGER!
- Beware of Conventional Document Management Systems
- ##################################################
-
- All document management systems are not alike. DocuPower Pro
- is unique, because we do it all, and do it safely. To appreciate
- our revolutionary design, it's important to understand the
- dangers of conventional document management systems. Those programs
- also allow you to assign descriptive names to your files. However,
- to keep track of what description goes with which file, they take
- control of your computer. First, they create their own DOS
- directories for your documents (for example C:\MEZ001A2). Next,
- they rename each file at the DOS level with their own proprietary
- file names, like L000310.DOC. Finally, the new directory structure
- and proprietary file names are indexed and tracked by their
- database engine.
-
- And that's the problem with conventional systems - they take
- too much control away from you. As long as your descriptive
- names are viewed from inside their program, everything is fine.
- But if you want to find a file on your own, you're out of luck.
- Just try figuring out what C:\MEZ001A2\L000310.DOC means!
-
- This can be a real problem. If you need to copy directories
- or files to a diskette, you'll be stuck. The names that the
- document management program assigns are totally meaningless
- to you. So using any file management program becomes impractical.
- Backing up your data also becomes either difficult or impossible.
- How can you back up your documents when you don't know where
- they are or what they're named?
-
- We believe that the benefits offered by these programs are
- outweighed by the problems that they create. Itís just never
- worth it to give up complete control of your system.
-
- DocuPower Pro's Revolutionary Design
- ####################################
-
- Unlike ordinary document management systems, DocuPower Pro
- enhances rather than replaces your existing directory structure
- and file names. You'll always have it both ways. Assign long,
- descriptive names to your documents. Retain your original
- directory structure and file names. DocuPower Pro puts you in
- complete control.
-
- DocuPower Pro gives you the power you need to be in charge of
- your documents. Try it yourself and see what it's like to
- always have your files at your fingertips.
-
- PC's, Networks, and Workgroups
- ##############################
-
- DocuPower Pro is designed for use on stand-alone PC's as well
- as networks. When installed to a network, it can be set up in
- either individual or workgroup configurations.
-
- Three basic configurations are available:
-
- 1. Stand-alone - for regular PC's which are not connected to a
- network.
- 2. Network - for PC's which are part of a network. DocuPower Pro
- folders can contain documents from your local drive, as well
- as files from network drives. Access to network drives is
- transparent to the user. Each user maintains separate folder
- configurations.
- 3. Workgroup - for PC's which are part of a network. As above,
- users can access documents from local and network drives.
- The workgroup version, however, also allows users in the same
- group to access the same set of DocuPower Pro folders. By
- sharing folders and documents, all members of the group can
- benefit from consistent document organization.
-
- The free trial version comes pre-configured for stand-alone and
- network PC's. Workgroup licenses for any number of users can be
- purchased by calling us at 800-814-2300 or 718-375-2997. Upon
- payment, youíll be shipped an installation kit configured for the
- number of users in your workgroup. Please note - volume discount
- prices are available for site licenses.
