TAXFORMS DISTRIBUTION
=====================
TAXFORMS is only to be distributed by those distributors who
prominently describe the term "ShareWare" in writing in their
catalogs with a written statement saying shareware is not free
software and encouraging Registration after a 30 day evaluation
period. The maximum copying fee that may be charged for TAXFORMS
is $10.00. Distributor members of the Association of ShareWare
Professionals qualify as TAXFORMS distributors. Others also qualify
if they meet our standards described above. Distributors who did
not receive these disks direct from us at Anthistle Systems &
Programming Ltd. should advise us so we can add you to our mailing
list for updates (use 40 cents postage to Canada).
If you are in the business of misleading your customers into
believing they have full rights to use this software by paying your
copying fee then you are denied permission to distribute TAXFORMS.
This can be inferred if you do not have the required statement
encouraging Registration in your catalog, or for rack sales, on your
package.
OUR FILES NOT TO BE CHANGED
===========================
You may add your own files to the distribution disk or download but
do not change any of our files. In particular do not unzip the
program run it then re-zip it. It was virus free when it left here,
we do not want to risk accidental exposure to viruses before it
reaches the end user. Also, running the program and re-zipping it
will prematurely set the install date causing the end user to be
reminded that registration is overdue when he/she is in fact still
in the trial period.
If you have your own start up program which you always add to
distribution disks then have it start our INSTALL.EXE as this will
ensure it is unzipped onto the \PAYPGMS directory of whichever disk
drive the user specifies and it will ensure that the Windows 3.1 PIF
file points to that directory. This is the same directory as is used
by our payroll systems and we like to use a standard directory
because it sure simplifies handling tech. support calls if we know
where our files are. Very often these days the people who call for
help have no idea how DOS or directory structures work, much less
which directory a program is on.

RACK SALES
==========
Many rack sales operators actually want their customers to believe
they are buying the program at the rack price. In reality, the disks
the program happens to be on, with an opportunity to evaluate that
program, is all they are buying off the rack. A line of tiny type
buried somewhere on the back of the package does not count as it is
unlikely to be read before purchase of the package. The fact that
the program is to be used for evaluation purposes only must be
PROMINENTLY displayed on the package.
We actively discourage rack sales of our PAYROLL USA and PAYROLL
CANADA systems because payroll taxes change each year and rack
vending products can sit on store shelves or in warehouses for
extended periods. However, TAXFORMS is not so time critical though
there is a risk that the IRS might make changes to the forms it
prints. Because TAXFORMS includes advertising material and a
special offer for PAYROLL USA we want as wide a distribution as
possible, therefore rack sales of TAXFORMS is encouraged. Please be
aware though that this is a seasonal product because of I.R.S.
filing dates for the forms it prepares. There should be big demand
from December to end February and maybe March, then it might not see
many sales until the next year.
Christopher Anthistle,
President.
