Introduction
This Shareware program provides the ability to design and print
custom letterhead, envelopes, index cards and labels. The
system provides for an very simple way to design a logo, etc. to
be printed on the top left side of the paper together with other
name and address information printed on the top middle or right
side.
The logo design is simply done using the built-in editor (or a
word processor or notepad facility such as Sidekick(tm)).
An x (or non-blank character) represents a graphic dot on the
printer. A blank represents a space the size of a graphic dot.
You design the logo using blanks and X's with the editor,
creating the logo line by line. This file is then used as input
to the program and the logo is printed, with the program
converting the x's and blanks to the respective graphic dots on
the printer. At your option, a name and address or other
information will also be printed.
Using this technique, the program will optionally print the logo
on envelopes, index cards, or labels with additional text printed
where desired.
