========================== Printer Definitions =========================
Before undertaking the following steps, be sure to make a backup copy of
your current printer definition files.
There are several printer definition files on the CourseMaster diskette, one
of which should be copied to your Wordperfect directory before you
begin.
CMAST51.PRS WordPerfect 5.1
CMAST50.PRS WordPerfect 5.0
CMASTER.PRS WordPerfect 4.2
WordPerfect 5.1
In WordPerfect 5.1, bring up the Print: Select Printer menu [Shift-F7].
Hit [S]elect printer
A list of available printers will be displayed. Hit [2] Additional Printer. The
screen should list all the Printers for which it has a printer definition. If you
have copied the CMAST51.PRS printer definition to your hard disk, it will
be listed at this time. Highlight it with the cursor, and
Hit [3] or [E]dit
That will bring up another menu.
Hit [2] for [P]ort
Type in a filename you intend to use for an intermediate ASCII file.
We use AUTHORED.INT, but any name is acceptable.
Hit <F7>
Now you will be back in the Print: Select Printer menu.
Type [1] for [S]elect
Now hit the <F7> key twice to return to the print menu. At that menu,
hit either [1] or [3] depending upon whether your word processing file is
active [1] or on disk [3]. That will print the file to a disk file (pure ASCII)
called AUTHORED.INT or whatever name you specified. That is the file
you will run through WPCONV.
WordPerfect 5.0
In WordPerfect 5.0, bring up the "Select Printer" menu.
Hit [S]elect printer
A list of available printers will be displayed. Move the cursor to
CMAST50.PRS, the printer definition for WordPerfect 5.0.
Follow the steps above at this point.
WordPerfect 4.2
Copy WPRINTER.FIL AND WPFONTS.FIL to your WordPerfect directory.
Bring up the Printer Control menu with the [Shift - F7] combination.
Hit [3] for "Select printers"
The screen will provide a list of the printers you have defined in your word
processing directory. The message will read:
Printer Definitions in d:\directory\WPRINTER.FIL
One of those printer definitions will be CORSMASTR (or something close
to that). Use the <down arrow> key to move to any available printer
number not in use -- in this example, we'll assume that is printer 6.
Use the <Page Down> key to change the "Using Definition:" number
until it corresponds to the number of the CourseMaster printer. Then hit
<Enter>.
At that point, a Printer Port selection menu will appear.
Hit [8] for "Device or File Pathname," then type the name you have
selected. We use AUTHORED.INT, but any name will do.
You will then be prompted for the "Type of Form":
Hit [1] for "Continuous" then <Enter>.
Hit <F7> to Exit and save that printer definition.
At the Printer Control menu, to print-to-disk, hit [1] to Control the Printer.
Then hit [6] to select the print-to-disk option.
