BOOKLETS is designed to create PC booklet sized documents from
full page text files on Laser Printers which emulate the Hewlett-
Packard LaserJet series. It prints four pages of the text file on one
sheet of paper. The pages are printed "two thirds size" on the right
and left halves of both sides of a sheet of paper turned sideways
(Landscape orientation.) It supports all the standard sizes of paper
(A4, LETTER, LEGAL, and EXECUTIVE)
BOOKLETS will perform transformation on basic LaserJet formatting
commands. This means that you can use your word processor to print a
formatted document to a file and use BOOKLETS to print that file in
booklet form. For this to be successful, you must have fonts loaded
in your printer for the sizes BOOKLETS will use. These can be from a
font cartridge or may be soft fonts which you have loaded ahead of
running BOOKLETS. BOOKLETS does not create or load any fonts. You
will need fonts which are approximately two thirds the point size of
the fonts you use in your document.
The BOOKLETS Document has been formatted for LaserJet printers so
it is not easy to read on a computer screen. You can print a full
sized version of this document by typing the following command line:
COPY /B BOOKLETS.PCL PRN:
Booklet can also print this file in a nice PC booklet form. There is
context sensitive help, so you may not need the document to get
started. Use the TAB key to move from selection to selection and
press F1 for help. Press ESC to get rid of the registration screen.
BOOKLETS is distributed as shareware.
Shareware is commercial software distributed in an unconventional
manner. Shareware isn't free. If you use it regularly, the authors
expect compensation. Shareware allows you to evaluate the product
before you purchase it. If you use this product, you are obliged to
register it.
Copies of BOOKLETS may be freely distributed in its
self-extracting form (BOOKLS.EXE.) No fee, charge or other
compensation may be accepted for the distribution of BOOKLETS.
Except, Public Domain Disk Vendors and BBS(s) may charge a nominal fee
for distribution of the program. Such charges must clearly be
labelled distribution charges and the recipient of BOOKLETS must be
informed that the distribution fee does not relieve the payment of the
registration fee for BOOKLETS.

resolve a dispute or problem with an ASP member, but does not provide
technical support for members' products. Please write to the ASP
