This describes some of the latest improvements we've made to Multi-Print.
For a complete history, see the What's New section in MP's manual.
Version # What's New
───────── ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
2.6 PAGE RANGES: We added an option to specify a range of page
numbers to print.
This option comes in very handy when you print a
file, but the printer mangles some pages. Just
print the file again, but this time tell MP to
print just the damaged pages.
TIPS & WARNING::::
1. To use this option you'll enter the numbers
of the first and last pages MP should print.
The numbers you enter MUST refer to the
ACTUAL pages of text MP finds -- REGARDLESS
of whether these pages are numbered. Example:
* Suppose a text file has a title page, a
preface and table of contents (3 actual
pages). The next page is numbered "Page 1."
* You want to skip the first 3 actual pages
and begin printing with the page numbered
"Page 1."
- This is the FOURTH actual page! It's
the 4th page of text MP will find.
- So you'd tell MP to print from page 4
through, say, 999. Entering 999 as the
last page number ensures that MP prints
everything through the end of the file.
(MP can handle up to 1000 pages only.)
2. This option actually determines which SHEETS
to print.
Once MP determines which sheets of paper
contain the pages you've asked to print, it
prints ALL the pages that would normally
be on those sheets -- based on the printing
mode you've chosen (booklet, left-to-right,
portrait, etc.)
2.5 TABS: Previous versions either ignored tabs in text, or
printed special characters. Tabs are ASCII Chr$(9).
Beginning with version 2.5 MP now indents text (4
spaces) whenever it encounters a tab character.
BUG: We fixed a bug (thanks to Cy) that caused MP to
print title lines twice if word wrap was on.
2.4 TOSHIBA: We added support for landscape printing on Toshiba
printers.
PORTRAIT: We added a portrait print option (with 2-sided
printing.
