It is not free software! Shareware authors request registration fees from those who try their programs and decide they will continue to use them. (Shareware authors do not receive payments from retail stores, disk vendors or BBSs who you may have already paid a small "distribution" fee to for the program diskette or downloaded files.) Because Shareware authors do not have to pay the high cost of advertising, the fees they charge for registration are modest in comparison to commercially available programs. The fees also allow them to develop new programs that may be of interest to you. With Intimacy Shareware you have the convenience of trying out the complete program to decide if you want to keep it. This is not a crippled or demo copy, but the complete working version of the program. Only if you are satisfied and continue to use the program do you need to pay for it. You are encouraged to copy the Intimacy diskette and share it freely with others. After you have used Intimacy for a reasonable evaluation period (not to exceed 60 days) you must either stop using it or buy a registered copy from Widening Horizons. The registered copy costs $39 (U.S. funds) plus $5 shipping/handling for U.S. and Canada and $10 shipping/handling for all other countries. Registration gives you a LEGAL LICENSE to continue using the program after the 60 day evaluation period ends, as well as the following valuable benefits. o The latest version of Intimacy containing any new features added, and without the shareware reminders. o An additional module that describes "Your Physical Compatibility" -- how you both approach your sexual relationship together and what you each need and want from the other in this special area. o Support to run Intimacy under Windows. o A complete 31 page, typeset and bound manual with color cover. o "10 Winning Strategies for Loving, Successful Relationships," by Cheryl Malakoff, Ph.D. This valuable resource combines Cheryl's 10 years of experience working with couples with her deep spiritual insights to give you the important keys that lead to more loving, fulfilling relationships. o $30 credit toward purchase of Relationship Report Writer, our professional report writing program for those that want to sell reports for profit. o Unlimited, free telephone support. o Notification of updates to Intimacy. o New product announcements. See CATALOG.DOC for current catalog. o Periodic special price offers. For your convenience, a registration form can be printed by iv pressing the letter R when on the last screen of the program. This screen is reached after you exit the program. An order form with registration information is also included at the end of this manual and in the CATALOG.DOC file which can be printed by entering the command, CATALOG C, from the DOS prompt. v WIDENING HORIZONS, INC.

The highly insightful reports produced by this program are surprisingly accurate and full of practical suggestions that can help you to have a stronger, more meaningful partnership. By showing the dynamic forces at work in your relationship, the reports can help you and your partner to better understand each other and to improve your communications together. The reports produced by this program run 6 to 8 pages and are based on the birth name, current name and birth date used by each person. The current name is very important since it often adds new and important energies that reflect changes made in a person's life. This is especially true for a woman who changes her name when she gets married. Intimacy uses a sophisticated approach to look at complete numerology charts for two people. The program scans both charts, looking for energies that either enhance, support or reduce the desired traits that are the basis for the six sections covered in the report. This integrated type of analysis is similar to what a professional numerologist does in a personal reading. The program is the work of Matthew Oliver Goodwin, the highly respected numerologist and author of the definitive, "Numerology: The Complete Guide." COMPANY BACKGROUND Widening Horizons, Inc. has been in business since 1984 and has committed its efforts exclusively to the field of numerology, creating a complete line of sophisticated, easy-to-use programs. Up to now, these programs were only available commercially. However, with the introductions of Personal Numerologist and Intimacy, we have brought our expertise to the shareware world. Our programs have consistently received outstanding reviews by the press serving the astrology and numerology market. vii INTRODUCTION INTIMACY Romantic relationships have always been a mystery for most people. Not only can they bring two people great joy, but at times, they can be a source of great frustration. Now, Intimacy provides an easy and fun way for you to personally access the science of numerology to help you better understand your intimate relations. The high quality reports produced by this program are full of practical suggestions for making stronger, more meaningful relationships. The reports can help you to better understand and communicate with your partner by giving you a fresh look at the dynamic forces at work in your relationship. Every report covers 6 important themes, each of which is divided into three sections -- one for each of you as individuals and one for the two of you as a couple. The topics include: o Your Adaptability o Your Sociability o Your Sensitivity To Your Own And Each Others' Feelings o Your Ability to Give Love And Affection o Your Ability To Earn A Living o Your Mutual Ambitions Intimacy prints 6 to 8 page reports in just minutes for most printers. And if you don't have a printer, you can display the report to the screen instead. The actual text that makes up the reports was written by Matthew Oliver Goodwin, a nationally recognized numerologist and author of the definitive, "Numerology: The Complete Guide." During a period of 18 years he developed the advanced techniques that are the basis for this program. Intimacy is easy to use and is intended for the first time computer user. Knowledge of numerology is not necessary. And with built in instructions and context sensitive help, you can enter the required data and produce comprehensive reports without referring back to this manual. 1 SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS Intimacy is designed to operate on all IBM PC, XT, AT, PS/1 and PS/2 personal computers and compatibles. The following is a summary of the requirements to operate the program: o PC-DOS or MS-DOS version 2.1 or later o 192KB of memory o One double sided, double density 5.25" or 3.5" floppy disk drive or hard disk. o 80 column display (monochrome, CGA, EGA, VGA, laptop or notebook) o 80 column printer (recommended but not required) PRINTER RECOMMENDATIONS Intimacy will work with any type of printer that supports 80 columns. However, if you are going to buy a printer specifically to operate with this program, we recommend a Dot Matrix printer with 100CPS -- 160CPS print speed. This will give you the best combination of low cost, high speed and good print quality. If your budget allows, Ink Jet printers and Laser printers will provide an even higher quality output. The paper used with your printer should be 8.5 inches wide by 11 inches long after removing any tractor feed perforations. Longer length paper is also supported for use in European countries that use a different paper size standard. 2 GETTING READY SOFTWARE CONTENTS See Appendix A for a complete list of program files for Intimacy. If any of these files are missing, you may not have a complete, working program. Contact the Retail Store, Disk Distributor or BBS that you received the software from. IMPORTANT TERMS The following terms are used in this guide and are defined here for your understanding. Cursor A means of indicating where the next character entered from the keyboard will appear on the screen. The cursor is normally an underline character. Default The selection displayed after the prompt when a Option choice is presented. Pressing the ENTER key without entering any other response selects this default answer. The first character of the default option is displayed under the cursor. Exit Leaving a program or mode of operation to go to another. Menu A selection of options within a program. Print Buffer A storage area within the printer that allows the printer to receive more characters at a time then can be physically printed. This speeds the printing process. Prompt A question appearing on the screen that requires an answer to be entered from the keyboard. ENTER key A key located on the right side of the keyboard pressed after entering an answer to a prompt. Some keyboards label this key RETURN instead. On the IBM PC, the ENTER key is symbolized by a continuous vertical line and left arrow. 3 IMPORTANT NOTES 1. See the README file for installation instructions. This file can be printed by entering the following command from the DOS prompt: README 2. Never work from the original diskette supplied -- the files are in compressed format. Instead make a working copy of this diskette by using the INSTALL program, as described in the README file. (The INSTALL program is not required if the program was downloaded from a BBS.) 3. For floppy only based systems: do not write protect your working diskette, as Intimacy must update data on this disk as part of its normal operation. 4 USING INTIMACY You are now ready to use Intimacy. This chapter will cover all aspects of its operation including how to start the program, how to enter the birth name and birth date information, how to print a report and more. If you are new to computers, you will find the following step by step approach easy to understand. The fastest way to learn, though, is to try each step on your system as you read along. After using Intimacy several times, you will find it easy enough to use without help from this guide. STARTING UP If you have not already installed the software as described in the README text file, then do so now, before preceding any further. To run Intimacy do the following: SINGLE FLOPPY DISK SYSTEMS a. Insert the DOS system disk into floppy disk drive A. Shut the drive door and turn on the computer power switch. Wait several seconds for the system to respond. b. (If you are asked to "Enter new date", type in today's date and press the ENTER key.) c. (If you are asked to "Enter new time", type in the correct time and press the ENTER key.) d. Once the A> prompt appears, remove the DOS disk and insert the working copy of the Intimacy disk into drive A. e. You are now ready to continue. Skip over the dual floppy and hard disk sections. DUAL FLOPPY DISK SYSTEMS a. Insert the DOS system disk into floppy disk drive A and the working copy of the Intimacy disk into drive B. Refer to your computer user's manual for the location of these drives. Shut the drive doors and turn on the computer power switch. Wait several seconds for the system to respond. b. (If you are asked to "Enter new date", type in today's date and press the ENTER key.) 5 c. (If you are asked to "Enter new time", type in the correct time and press the ENTER key.) e. Once the A> prompt appears, enter B: and press ENTER. f. You are now ready to continue. Skip over the hard disk section. HARD DISK SYSTEMS a. Turn on the computer power switch. Wait up to one minute for the system to respond. b. (If you are asked to "Enter new date", type in today's date and press the ENTER key.) c. (If you are asked to "Enter new time", type in the correct time and press the ENTER key.) d. You will then see the symbol, C>, on the left side of the screen. This is the system prompt and shows that the computer is ready for you to proceed. e. Enter the command CD \INT to enter the sub-directory where the Intimacy files are located. f. You are now ready to continue. Once the above steps are completed, enter the following command from the DOS prompt and press the ENTER key to start Intimacy, INT Several seconds after this command is executed, you will be greeted by a "sign on" display showing the name of the program, the version number and a copyright message. When "(Press Any Key To Continue)" appears near the bottom of the screen, press any key to proceed. ON LINE INSTRUCTIONS The first prompt you see asks: Do you need INSTRUCTIONS (Y/N)? N where N is shown as the default option. When you become completely familiar with the operation of Intimacy you can simply press the ENTER key for no (since N is the default option). However, the first time lets answer Y for yes and see what happens. A screen of text now appears explaining the capabilities of Intimacy. At the bottom of the screen is the message: Press END to exit or PGDN for more... Press the PGDN key and you will see the next screen of instructions. Continue to press PGDN until you reach the last 6 screen. If you press PGDN one more time, you will be greeted with a beep telling you that the last screen of information is already displayed. Pressing the PGUP key at any time will take you to the previous screen. If you repeatedly use the PGUP key, a beep will occur after the first screen is reached. At any time, you can press the END key to exit the instructions. Note: The ENTER, ESC and E keys work the same as the PGDN, PGUP, and END keys respectively. These keys can be used instead if you prefer not to have your hands leave the main part of the keyboard. Having access to the instructions while operating Intimacy can be an added convenience if the User's Guide is not available when you need it. HELP DISPLAYS Besides the built-in instructions, many help displays are available whenever the following message is displayed at the bottom of the screen: F1 Help F2 Colors F3 Printers F10 Exit This message reminds you to press the F1 function key to display the different help functions available. After pressing this key, you are presented with four choices: (P)rompt Help, (E)diting Help, (T)oggle Editing Functions, (R)eturn Pressing the letter P provides one or more screens of instructions about the particular prompt you are on. This can be very helpful the first several times you use Intimacy. For example, important information on deciding the correct name and birth date to use are available when at the corresponding prompts. Pressing the letter E provides information on editing. This is handy to review when first learning how to use the basic editing capabilities. The use of the PGDN, PGUP, and END keys are the same as described above under Instructions. Besides the editing help screens, it is also possible to display a summary of the editing functions at the bottom of the screen by pressing the letter T. To remove this summary, press F1 and then T again. These two keys toggle the help summary on and off. If you have selected F1 by mistake, press the letter R or the ENTER key to exit the help function. 7 CHANGING SCREEN COLORS The F2 function key is used to select one of the many screen colors schemes available. After pressing this key, use the Up and Down arrow keys to select the color scheme you like best. The new colors will immediately take effect. Once the screen color is selected, press ENTER to permanently save your choice. Pressing the ESC key instead will restore the color scheme in effect before F2 was pressed. This function is useful even if you have a monochrome display. The first two choices give white text on a black background and black text on a white background. NAME AND BIRTH DATE ENTRY If you answer no to the instruction prompt or have exited from the instructions, you are asked to: Please enter the NUMBER of NAMES in the Birth Name (1-4): 3 where 3 is the default option. At the top, center of the screen is displayed, "First Person". This is to remind you that the data you are about to enter is for the first person in the relationship. The correct name to use for the above prompt is the full name given at birth -- usually the name as it exactly appears on the birth certificate. Respond by entering the number of names given at birth. For example, if the name being entered is Tom Jones, enter the number 2. If the name being entered is John Philip Jones, just press the ENTER key for the default selection of 3. Additional examples of names, including special cases, are available through the help display when on the name prompts that follow. The numbers 1-4 shown in parenthesis in the above prompt indicates that only the numbers 1 through 4 can be entered. If you enter anything else an error message will be displayed at the bottom of the screen. If this happens, simply reenter a valid number and press ENTER. IMPORTANT NOTE -- Use the help function by pressing F1 and then P to review important information on entering the birth name, current name and birth date correctly. Once the number of names is entered, the next prompt appears: "Please enter the FIRST NAME as given at birth:" Simply type the first name of the first person in the relationship. Use the editing keys described later in this chapter to correct mistakes made while entering data. The ESC key can also 8 be used to return to the previous prompt if you decide to change an earlier answer. The number of additional name prompts displayed depends on the answer given to the previous question for the number of names. Enter the corresponding name to each birth name prompt that appears. IMPORTANT NOTE -- Enter compound names as one name with a space between each compound part. This assures that Y's and W's are correctly detected as vowels or consonants. Examples: De Witt De Young After the last name is entered, the following display occurs: "The NAME you have entered is - (the actual name entered is shown here) Is this correct (Y/N)? Y" where Y is the default option. This gives you an opportunity to make corrections to any errors not previously detected. If the response to a prompt is already correct, just press the ENTER key to accept it as is. If you find an error in the name, type N and press the ENTER key or simply press ESC to re-answer the same questions just completed. When you reach the prompt with the incorrect answer, re-type the response. Once the entered name is correct, answer Y to the prompt, "Is this correct." After the birth name is correctly entered, the next prompt appears: "Please enter the NUMBER of NAMES in the Current name (1-4): #" where # is equal to the number of names entered for the birth name. The correct name to use here is the full name most commonly used today for the first person in the relationship. For most people this will be a different name then the birth name. For example, most women take on a different name when married or a person may use a less formal name -- William becomes Bill, for example or a middle name may be dropped. Use the help function to review important additional information. After answering this, the next prompt to appear is: "Please enter the FIRST NAME currently used:" This, and the following current name prompts, are answered the same way as the birth name -- except you use the current name. 9 Notice that the same name entered for the birth name is shown as the default. This will actually be the correct choice much of the time. Just press ENTER if this is the name you want. If this is not the right name, then type in the correct name. As soon as the first character of a new name is entered, the default name will disappear. This makes the display easier to read. After entering the full current name for the first person, you are asked to confirm that the entry is correct. When you respond with a Y, the next prompt occurs: "Please enter the MONTH Number of the Birth Date:" A table is displayed above this prompt showing each month number for the 12 months of the year. Select the number from this table corresponding to the month of birth as shown on the birth certificate. After this number is entered, the following prompt occurs: "Please enter the DAY of the Birth Date: " and then: "Please enter the YEAR of the Birth Date: 19" Enter the day and year from the birth certificate. The YEAR prompt assumes a birth date in this century. Only the last two digits need to be entered. However, if the year is in a different century, use the BACK SPACE key to delete the 9 and if necessary the 1 and enter the correct year. Once the complete birth date is entered, the following prompt occurs: "The BIRTH DATE you have entered is '(actual birth date)' Is this correct (Y/N)? Y" where Y is the default option. As with the name entry, this gives you a chance to correct any errors not previously detected. When you are satisfied that the birth date for the first person is correct press ENTER. Now, another set of birth name, current name and birth date prompts occur for the second person in the relationship. The top line changes to "Second Person" and a beep occurs to let you know you are entering data for the second person in the relationship. Enter the data using the same procedure as for the first person. Note: It is possible to review and modify all previously made entries, at any time, by pressing the ESC key enough times to get back to the prompt you want to change. Once you make any changes, 10 press the ENTER key until you return to where you started. DISPLAYING THE REPORT After the names and birth dates for both people have been entered, the next prompt is displayed: Send Report to SCREEN or PRINTER (S/P)? P Enter S to display the report to the screen. This is useful if you do not have a printer or want to review the report before printing it. One screen of information will be displayed at a time. At the bottom of the first screen is displayed the message: Press END to exit or PGDN for more... Continue to press the PGDN key to view each screen until the end of the report is reached. The PGUP key can also be used to see previous screens. Press END to exit at any time. After exiting, the following prompt appears: Do you want a PRINTED Copy (Y/N)? N If after viewing the report, you decide you want a printed copy, press Y and then ENTER. Then follow the instructions in the next section, Printing The Report. If you press N and ENTER, the next prompt appears: Do you want to Process another Report (Y/N)? N Answer Y to enter data for another report or N to exit the program. PRINTING THE REPORT A printed copy of the report is obtained by typing P followed by ENTER (or just pressing ENTER) when at the prompt: Send Report to SCREEN or PRINTER (S/P)? P After pressing ENTER the next prompt asks whether you are using continuous or single sheet paper: Continuous or Single Sheet Paper (C/S)? C Press ENTER for the default selection of continuous paper. Enter S if you are going to hand feed individual sheets of paper into your printer. When each page is done printing, the prompt: 11 Insert paper and press ENTER to continue appears at the bottom of the screen. Insert a new sheet of paper into the printer and press ENTER to print the next page. After selecting the type of paper you are using, the following message is displayed: Ready the Printer and press ENTER This reminds you to turn the printer on and to correctly align the paper before printing starts. Press the ENTER key whenever you are ready to print. A reminder message is now displayed at the bottom of the screen: Press ESC to STOP Printer If it ever becomes necessary to stop the printer before the report is completed, press the ESC key. As soon as the print buffer is empty, the printer will stop. This gives you a chance to correct something that may have gone wrong. A new message will appear at the bottom of the screen after pressing ESC: Press END to exit or ENTER for more... If you want to abandon printing before the report is finished, press the END key. Pressing the ENTER key will start the printer again. The following prompt will appear if the END key is pressed: Do you want to Process another Report (Y/N)? N At this point you can either exit Intimacy or start a new report. SELECTING A PRINTER The F3 function key is used to select the printer type. This selection only needs to be made once and should be done before the first report is printed. HP Laser Jets and compatibles, HP Desk Jets and compatibles, most other ink jets and all dot matrix printers are supported. After pressing the F3 function key, use the Up and Down arrow keys to select the correct printer type. If you are using a dot matrix printer or a non HP ink jet printer select "All other printers: 64 or more lines/page." If the page number prints near the top of the next page instead of at the bottom of the current page, then select "All other printers: 60 - 63 lines/page." Once the printer is selected, press ENTER to permanently save your 12 choice. Pressing the ESC key instead will restore the printer type in effect before F3 was pressed. EDITING If you make an error while entering a response and before the ENTER key is pressed, use the BACK SPACE key to delete the last characters entered. (The BACK SPACE key is symbolized by a large left arrow). Each time this key is pressed, one character to the immediate left of the cursor will be deleted. Repeated use of this key will delete the entire response. After the error is deleted, just retype the correct answer. If you enter more characters then the program accepts for a particular answer, you will be greeted with a beep. This indicates that the last characters entered were ignored. When this happens, check your entry and delete enough characters using the BACK SPACE key to make the answer fit in the allotted space. Sometimes an incorrect character will be entered. For example, if any letter other than S or P is entered for the "Send Report to SCREEN or PRINTER" prompt, a beep will occur and an error message will be displayed at the bottom of the screen. When this occurs, make the correction suggested by the error message. If the new response is correct, the answer will be accepted and the error message will disappear. For certain prompts, an incorrect character will not even be accepted. Instead, you will hear the beep, indicating that you tried to enter an illegal character. As an example, if you try to enter a number character while responding to the name prompts or a letter character while responding to the date prompts, you will hear this beep. The SPACE BAR key can also be used to remove characters from the end of a word. Pressing the SPACE BAR enough times removes ALL characters under the cursor and to the right. This is useful if you are reentering a shorter response over a longer one already displayed. It is also possible, by using the ESC key, to return to a previous prompt after you have pressed the ENTER key. This is useful if you realize that a previously entered answer is incorrect. When you press ESC you are returned to the prompt just answered, usually with the previous answer being shown. At this point, you have several options: (1) you can go back one more prompt by pressing the ESC key again, or (2) you can accept the previous answer as correct by pressing the ENTER key (this is useful if you want to see what you previously entered), or (3) you can reenter a new answer in place of the one displayed. 13 Many of the prompts you encounter show a suggested answer. If this is the response you want, just press the ENTER key to accept it. If you want a different response, type the new answer in and press ENTER. This makes Intimacy easier and faster to use by showing the answer it thinks you will most often choose. When the displayed answer is the correct one, you are saved the effort of entering it. Instead, just press the ENTER key. ------------------------------------------------------------------ TABLE 1 SUMMARY OF EDITING KEYS KEY DESCRIPTION BACK SPACE Deletes one character to the left of the cursor. Can be used repeatedly to remove a complete response. SPACEBAR Deletes the character under the cursor and is used to remove characters from the cursor to the right end of a response. ESC Moves user back to previous prompt. Can be used repeatedly to move back more than one prompt. ------------------------------------------------------------------ A FAST EXIT There is one additional time saving function built into Intimacy - - the F10 function key. Pressing F10 will cause a beep and a list of options to appear at the bottom of the screen. This function can be accessed whenever Intimacy is waiting for a response to be entered. (The only exceptions are when a report is being displayed to the screen or printer, or help information is being displayed. These operations must be exited first before F10 can be used.) The options are (E)xit, (S)tart Over or (R)eturn. Press only the single letter shown in parenthesis to select one of these options. Do NOT press the ENTER key after entering a response. Table 2 summarizes these options. ------------------------------------------------------------------ TABLE 2 F10 FUNCTIONS 14 OPTION DESCRIPTION (E)xit Exits the program immediately. Use this carefully, as you will lose all the information you have entered. (S)tart Returns to the beginning of the program, so you Over can start again. All previously entered data is lost. (R)eturn If you press the F10 function by mistake, allows you to return to wherever you were, without taking any action. This is the default response. Note: Select an option by pressing the single letter in parenthesis. Do NOT press the ENTER key. ------------------------------------------------------------------ The F10 function should be used with caution. When Exit is selected, all information entered will be lost. Entered information can also be lost when Start Over is selected, depending on where you are when it is chosen. This function should only be used when you are certain that the last responses you have entered are no longer needed. 15 APPENDIX A PROGRAM FILES The Intimacy software should contain at least the following files after installation: BASRUN .EXE 2P6 .NTX INT .EXE 2P6 .INX INTPRT .OVR 3P2A .NTX INTINSTS.NTX 3P2A .INX SDT .LRX 3P3 .NTX LDT .LRX 3P3 .INX PUNCT .LRT 6P1A .NTX 2P1 .NTX 6P1A .INX 2P1 .INX INTSMAN .DOC 2P2 .NTX README . 2P2 .INX 2P4A .NTX 2P4A .INX 16 APPENDIX B ERROR MESSAGES The following is a summary of the error messages that can occur during use of the Intimacy program. Explanations for the probable cause of each error and how to correct it are given. "DAY MUST BE BETWEEN 1 & 31" The birthday entered is less than 1 or greater than 31. Re-enter a number between 1 and 31. "FILE NOT FOUND AT ADDRESS ####:####" If this error occurs, you are returned to the operating system prompt and the cursor may be off.

Goodwin, a graduate of MIT, spent eighteen years developing his approaches to numerology. During this time he gave thousands of personal readings which helped to refine his techniques. In fact, Goodwin developed many specialized procedures -- which have never been published or used by others -- just for Intimacy and Relationship Report Writer, described below. All programs come with comprehensive and easy-to-read printed manuals. File support is also included to run each of these programs under Windows by clicking on a custom icon for that program. Sample reports for each of the following programs can be printed by entering the command CATALOG from the DOS prompt. PERSONAL NUMEROLOGIST This is the personal version of Numerologist Report Writer (described next) and is intended for non-professional use. Personalized reports reveal the most intimate characteristics and motivations of one's personality and are ideal to better understand family, friends, lovers and co-workers. Reports average 6 to 8 pages and can be a valuable resource to those that want to learn more about numerology. Accurate, relevant reports include detailed descriptions of the Life Path, Expression, Soul Urge, Birthday, Master and Repeated Numbers, Karmic Debts, Karmic and Modified Karmic Lessons and the Personal Year. The printed manual also includes a primer on numerology that defines the special terms used in the reports. The primer is intended to give the reader a basic understanding of numerology and shows how to get the most value out of Personal Numerologist. This program is an excellent companion to Intimacy. Whereas Intimacy concentrates on two people and their relationship together, Personal Numerologist goes into more detail just on the individual. 19 NUMEROLOGIST REPORT WRITER This professionally oriented program produces fully integrated personality reports with the same accuracy and clarity one would expect from a professional reading with a numerologist. These reports reveal the total sweep of a person's destiny with accurate and easy to understand text averaging 9 to 17 pages. The program looks at the numerology chart as a whole, then delineates complete complexes of numbers in flowing, well-written paragraphs. For a total approach, the current name is compared with the original name at birth. Program supports batch operations, how the letters Y and W are treated, and allows reports to be edited with a word processor. Reports are licensed for sale. Each report includes detailed descriptions of the Life Path, Expression, Soul Urge, Birthday, Master Numbers, Repeated Numbers, Karmic Debts, Karmic and Modified Karmic Lessons, Intensity Points, Challenge, Maturity Number, Current Name, Current Life Path Period, Current Pinnacle and Current Personal Year. (See items 1 through 9 below, under Relationship Report Writer, for the differences between Personal Numerologist and Numerologist Report Writer.) Get A $30 Credit If you buy Personal Numerologist first, you will get a $30 credit when you purchase Numerologist Report Writer. This means extra savings if you ever outgrow Personal Numerologist and decide to upgrade to this more powerful program at some later time. RELATIONSHIP REPORT WRITER This is the professional version of Intimacy and is meant for users who want more in-depth reports or want to start a business to sell the printouts. The 14 to 18 page reports are intended for two people romantically involved, giving practical suggestions for making a stronger, more meaningful relationship. These reports can help couples to better understand and communicate with each other by giving them a fresh prospective of the dynamic forces at work in their relationship. Every report covers 12 important themes, each of which is divided into three sections -- one for each of the two individuals and one for the two of them as a couple. 20 The topics include: o First Impressions o Your Adaptability o Your Sociability o Your Relations With Parents, Children and Other Relatives o Your Sensitivity To Your Own And Each Others' Feelings o Your Ability To Communicate o Your Ability to Give Love And Affection o Your Physical Compatibility o Your Approach To Material Affairs o Your Ability To Earn A Living o Your Mutual Ambitions There is also a special section that shows the influences of the current year and how this affects both people -- as individuals and as a couple. This section shows what each person needs and how each can be most supportive of the other throughout the year. In addition to the new topics shown above, Relationship Report Writer provides the following advanced capabilities that are not included in Intimacy: 1. A professional looking cover page that shows who the report is for, along with six lines you define for your name, address and anything else you want to personally display. A must for anyone selling reports for profit. 2. A chart page that follows the cover page, giving a detailed summary of all the numerological calculations that are the basis for the report. A great way to see all the numbers at once for those who want to gain a deeper insight from the complete charts. 3. Four report options: personality and progressed, personality only, progressed only and chart only. This gives you the ability to sell different reports at different prices to meet the varying needs of your customers. And the progressed report can be offered each year to your existing customers, providing you with additional income. 4. Up to 10 sets of names and birth dates that can be entered at one time in batch mode. Each report is then printed automatically, one after the other, freeing you to do something else until all reports are done. A valuable time saver when printing multiple reports. 5. Reports that can be edited using your favorite word processor before printing. This allows you to add your own personal thoughts to each report. If you have a favorite number that's not included in the reports, for example, just go ahead and add it. 6. The individual treatment of the letters Y and W as vowels or consonants to match whichever system of numerology you are now using. 7. Advanced editing keys that make it easy to correct mistakes 21 made during data entry, saving time and trouble. 8. Headings and subheadings that print in bold type which enhance the look of the reports. 9. A license agreement that includes the RIGHT TO SELL THE COPYRIGHTED REPORTS in your regional area for profit. Whereas Intimacy is meant for personal use with friends and family, this allows Relationship Report Writer to be used in a business. Get A $30 Credit If you already own Intimacy, you qualify for a $30 credit when you purchase Relationship Report Writer. When ordering, just enclose a copy of your invoice or a copy of the original program diskette (showing the label) and subtract $30 from the purchase price. THE NUMEROLOGIST, A PROFESSIONAL CALCULATOR This easy to use program calculates and prints complete numerology charts (numbers only without interpretations) and is ideal for anyone who wants to further explore the power of numbers or do their own interpretations. Page one gives the natal numbers, the points of intensification, the planes of expression and the overall cycles, pinnacles and challenges. Optional pages two and three contain the progressions: nine key numbers governing every year from birth to age 91. For each chart, The Numerologist gives 1065 important numbers you'd otherwise have to hand calculate. Names and birth dates for up to 25 people can be entered at one time. The corresponding charts are then automatically printed, one after the other. In addition, this program supports the systems used by Matthew Goodwin or Juno Jordan. The Pythagorean, Chaldean and other numbering systems are also supported. You can change the numbers assigned to each of the 26 letters and control whether or not Y or W are treated as vowels or consonants. You can change the names assigned to the six core numbers, select the number of pinnacles to use and choose whether to start the progressions at age 0 or 1. This added flexibility allows you to more closely match the particular system of numerology you already use. NUMEROLOGY: THE COMPLETE GUIDE This comprehensive, two volume set is one of the most complete books on the subject of numerology. Both books are written by Matthew Oliver Goodwin, author of the text and program algorithms used in Personal Numerologist, Intimacy, Numerologist Report Writer and Relationship Report Writer. Volume 1 is on the personality reading and will give you the how and why into the workings of the Personal Numerologist and Numerologist Report 22 Writer programs. Volume 2 covers advanced aspects of the personality reading as well as the progressions.
