P A G E P R O 9 9
Asgard Software and Ed Johnson are pleased to announce the release of Page
Pro 99.
A project whose development spans the last two years, Page Pro 99 is an
extremely powerful but very easy to use page-making program for the TI-99/4A and
Myarc Geneve 9640. Ideal for dozens of different applications - from making
letterheads, signs, charts, maps and graphs to business forms, and even short
documents and newsletters. The program is written on the principal of
"what-you-see-is-what-you-get" - the printed page will literally look exactly
like what is on the screen, so you know exactly what you will get at all times.
Page Pro 99 is the only page-making software for the TI-99/4A or Geneve that has
this feature.
Written entirely from scratch in assembly language, Page Pro 99 will allow you
to create an entire 8 1/2" by 11" page - 66 lines - at once. You can place up to
28 pictures at one time, of any size, anywhere on the page. Page Pro 99 permits
you to type in either of two fonts at once - a small 8x12 pixel font for regular
text and a large 16x24 font for titles. The program will also allow you to draw
lines anywhere on the page with any of two linestyles at the same time.
Page Pro 99 contains many features to help making your page easier. It includes
a full-complement of text editing features for inserting and deleting characters
and lines. It will also let you import text files from TI-Writer or other word
processing programs - so you can use your favorite text editor to create text.
The standard TI-Writer windowing keys are also supported for quickly and easily
getting around the page. Page Pro 99 will allow you to type in any direction
(up, down, left or right) for easily making vertical titles. It will also let
you delete pictures at will, as well as load pictures at any time at the cursor
location. You can also load in new fonts and line styles at any time (though you
can only have 2 fonts and two linestyles in memory at once). Finally, you can
quickly save and load your page for later use.
After you've created your page, you can print it out in any of three
dot-densities on your Epson or compatible printer - single-density "rough draft"
up to "reproduction-quality" quad-density.
If this wasn't enough, we've also included utilities for converting TI-Artist
(tm) fonts and instances easily into Page Pro 99 format, and a utility which
turns a text file into two-column text for Page Pro 99 - so you can easily
create two-column newsletters. We've also included many example pictures
illustrating various points of the program, and an art disk full of pictures and
fonts you can use in Page Pro 99 right out of the box.
The program includes an extensive manual which describes the various functions
of the program, includes a tutorial, and even an advanced section for
programmers interested in making Page Pro 99 compatible utilities.
Page Pro 99 includes a version optimized for the Geneve 9640 and one for the
99/4A - an 80-column version of each as well as a Prowriter version are planned
in the not-too-far future. It requires either a TI-99/4A with 32K, disk and
either Extended BASIC or Editor/Assembler, or a Myarc Geneve 9640 with a single
disk drive. Multiple disk drives, all RAM-disks and even the Myarc Hard & Floppy
Disk Controller are supported (full path-names allowed).
Finally, this remarkable program has a remarkable price - only $24.95 for one of
the most capable, and by far the easiest to use, Page making program for the
99/4A and Geneve.
