Introduction 1.0
----------------
Welcome to the shareware/demo version of OnForm V2.0 the leading
invoice/order form printing application for the Amiga!
The full uninhibited version of OnForm is only available directly from me
to users who register. For details on becoming a registered user please read
section 2 of this document.
Before using the OnForm disk it is recommended a backup copy is made. The
copy should be used for day to day use, the original disk should be stored
somewhere safe and ONLY be used to make replacement copies of your normal
working disk.
Shareware Restrictions 1.1
--------------------------
As this is a shareware/demo version of OnForm there are certain
restrictions...
1. When OnForm is run or the ADP/OCE module launched, this file will be
displayed reminding you to register, to quit from this document simply press
the ESCape key. If this file cannot be located where expected, OnForm and the
modules will refuse to work.
2. A registration form is randomly printed when you attempt to print
invoice/order forms. When 'Print' is first selected there is a 33% chance such
a form will be printed. Once a registration form has been printed, the chances
of it being printed again is reduced to 10%. However, for each successful
print operation (no registration form printed) the chance is increased by 3%
to a maximum of 80%.
3. The number of records in .ADP and .OCE files, are limited to just 10
records per file. When you register you are only limited by the amount of free
space on you disk.

2. Only a nominal fee to cover distribution and copying expenses may be
charged.
3. The disk contents may ONLY be compressed for BBS/Internet distribution

How To Register 2.0
-------------------
The first step to take in becoming a registered user is to complete and
return a registration form. Blank registration forms are randomly printed by
OnForm when you attempt to print invoice/order forms. All information on
registration forms will remain strictly confidential and only be used by
myself for future reference.
The second step is to order at least one of the disks from the table
below. If you order more than one disk you should pay the full price for the
most expensive, then the registered user price for the remaining disks.
Also Available 2.1
------------------
Dysk-Stik V1.1 - a feature packed, user-friendly data-base program for
printing 3.5" disk labels. Replace all those tatty hand-written labels with
smart printed ones. Extensive preferences include - print quality, character
pitch, text style, print colour, left margin and label placement. Other
useful features include edge print, a handy facility for printing the disk's
name and number along the edge of the disk, this enables disks to be found
with ease when stored in disk boxes. To allow easy access to specific disk
labels two search methods have been incorporated, one searches for a disk's
name the other for the disk number.
AddressPrint V4.4 - The latest version of the popular and easy to use address
labelling program. New features include a facility for creating mail-merge
files, a print-mode setting allowing addresses to be printed on either labels
or envelopes, and an auto-load feature for opening an .ADP file automatically
when AddressPrint is run. Other program improvements include improved
printing speeds and better error handling.

Please Note: The prices outlined above are the MINIMUM registration and
upgrade charges. I have in the past received many comments that these programs
are substantially under priced and I should charge more for them. While this
is a statement that I agree with, I also feel some people would be reluctant
to register if I set a higher price. However, should you find my programs
particularly useful and agree a higher price would be justified, please
increase your payment to reflect what you consider a more realistic figure.
Users outside the UK should contact me for postage charges before placing any
orders.
Hard Drive Installation 3.0
---------------------------
To install OnForm on your hard drive, simply boot from your hard drive as
normal then double-click on the 'OnF_Install' icon to execute the installer
script. In an effort to make hard drive installation as painless as possible
the standard installer utility has been used, simply follow the on-screen
instructions and all should be well.
Should you receive the error - Unable to open your tool 'c:Installer',
when you attempt to execute the installer script, open a shell/cli window and
type the following command...
copy OnFormV2.0:c/Installer to sys:c/
...then try again.
