                       FinePrint 2000 Build 83

                             June 3, 2003


Description
-----------
FinePrint is a printer driver for Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Me,
Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, and Windows XP.  FinePrint prints any
multi-page document onto fewer sheets of paper by printing 1, 2, 4, or
8 document pages onto each physical sheet of paper, while maintaining
document integrity and clarity.  FinePrint also allows you to customize
your printouts by adding headers, footers, and watermarks to your pages.


Benefits of FinePrint
---------------------
* saves significant amounts of paper and toner, and extends printer life

* works with any standard Windows application which has a Print function

* returns control to your application quickly, which allows you to
  continue working while FinePrint prints your document in the background

* works with any Windows printer (inkjet, PCL laser, PostScript, bubble
  jet, etc.)

* particularly useful for spreadsheets, email, electronic manuals, draft
  memos, technical papers, presentations, Web pages, Adobe Acrobat PDF
  files, software source code

* can be used to efficiently archive large amounts of physical documents

* saves weight for business travelers--carry only 1/2 or 1/4th the amount
  of paper

* supports all standard Windows print features such as fonts, graphics,
  page size, etc.

* Stationery feature prints a header, footer, page number, date and time
  stamps with your document.  Watermarks are also supported.

* simple to install and easy to use

* Universal print preview with editing capability.  All documents can be
  previewed before they are printed.  The ability to add blank pages or
  delete pages makes it easy to ensure that you print what you want.

* Deferred printing allows multiple documents to be combined together as a
  single print job.  This is useful for creating booklets based on web page
  or email output.  Deferred documents can be saved and retrieved for later
  editing.  FinePrint can be used as a web research tool since it saves
  pages in their entirety in a single file.  

* Any printed output can be copied to the clipboard in text, bitmap or
  metafile format.  The text of any output can be extracted to a file for
  searching, indexing or other use.

* Booklet making and double sided printing are supported with all
  documents and printers.  Booklets create a professional touch to all
  documents and are easy to read and carry.  Double sided printing cuts
  paper use in half and reduces travel weight.

* Paper scaling allows large pages to be scaled to that they fit on
  standard paper sizes such as letter or A4.  Large web pages that are
  normally truncated or wide spreadsheets can be easily scaled to they fit
  on a single sheet.

* Adjustable margins allows for increased text sizes for better 
  readability while using more of the available area on the page

* Gutter capability provides space to punch holes or bind documents

* Multiple FinePrinters may be created, each with a different set of
  predefined settings.


Installing
----------
To install FinePrint, run the program FPxxx.EXE (Windows 95/98/Me) or
FPNTxxx.EXE (Windows NT/2000/XP), where "xxx" is the FinePrint version
number.  Then follow the onscreen instructions.


Uninstalling
------------
In the Start menu, open the Programs folder, then open the FinePrint 2000
folder and select "Uninstall FinePrint."  You may also uninstall FinePrint
in the Control Panel Add/Remove Programs applet.

    Support off instead of on

--- Build 11 (April 17, 2000) ---

39. FinePrint now automatically saves the most recent jobs you print.
    This allows you to go back and reprint jobs even after you have
    dismissed the FinePrint dialog.  Autosave settings are on the
    Settings tab in the FinePrint dialog and jobs are saved in a new
    folder called AutoSave, located in your FinePrint jobs folder (see
    the "Explore FinePrint files" shortcut in the FinePrint 2000
    program group).

40. FinePrint now has crash recovery so that you don't lose your work
    if a problem happens while you are printing.  When you reboot
    Windows or restart the FinePrint Dispatcher, any unhandled print
    jobs from your last FinePrint session are automatically loaded into
    FinePrint so that you can print or otherwise dispose of them without
    losing your work.  This feature is different from autosave because
    it uses the actual temp files in your TEMP folder, not saved .FP
    files in your AutoSave folder.

41. fixed a problem with custom resolutions in the Save As TIFF dialog

42. you can now set the default location for saved FinePrint jobs and
    files by clicking the Folder Locations button on the Settings tab

43. new Quick Bypass feature: if you hold down the SHIFT key when you
    print from any application, then FinePrint switches into Bypass mode
    using the currently selected printer and suppresses the FinePrint
    dialog box.  You must hold down the SHIFT key until you see the
    FinePrint icon in the Windows task bar status area; the icon is
    removed when Quick Bypass is complete.  You can enable or disable
    Quick Bypass on the Settings tab.

44. FinePrint can now use the same data directories for all users
    instead of creating new unique directories for each user.  To use
    this feature you must uninstall FinePrint and reboot your machine,
    then specify DataDir and JobsDir in FP4.INI.  Contact FinePrint
    Technical Support (support@fineprint.com) for more details.

45. fixed problems with Save As TIFF where sometimes the TIFF file was
    not created

46. you can now specify color depth and DPI resolution when copying
    pages to the clipboard as bitmaps.  Right-click on a page in the
    Layout tab and select "Copy sheet to clipboard" to set the options
    or copy a page.

47. Save As now supports bitmap (BMP) and JPEG formats

48. fixed problems where output to some color Postscript printers (e.g.
    HP Color Laserjet 4500 series) was coming out monochrome instead of
    color

49. fixed a problem printing to FinePrint when Chinese Star for Windows NT
    is running

--- Build 12 (April 19, 2000) ---

50. FP files saved on the Jobs tab can now be used as forms by copying
    them into the Forms folder

51. fixed a problem where using a watermark sometimes caused text to
    disappear

52. fixed a problem with inserting blank pages after you have deleted pages

53. fixed a problem where some gridlines were missing when printing from
    Excel under Windows NT/2000
    
--- Build 13 (April 21, 2000) ---

54. minor cosmetic improvements to the "Order Supplies" link

--- Build 14 (April 28, 2000) ---

55. new optimizations reduce the size of the physical printer spool file
    for AutoCAD and other line art-intensive documents

56. in addition to the [Registry] section, FP4.INI now supports [Registry-9x]
    and [Registry-NT] sections for platform-specific initializations.
    [Registry-9x] is for Windows 9x and [Registry-NT] is for Windows NT/
    2000.  These sections are processed AFTER the platform-independent
    [Registry] section is processed.

57. improved onscreen drawing speed of line art

58. fixed problems with banded output not lining up properly

59. fixed problems with erroneous lines drawn on output

    on a page in the main Layout tab and print just that sheet to your
    printer

78. added a "Save settings" button to the Settings tab, so you can save the
    current FinePrint settings without having to print a job to your printer

    systems and with Terminal Server under Windows NT/2000.  Temp files are
    now created in each user's personal TEMP folder if one exists, otherwise
    they are created in the system TEMP folder.  Each user's stationery and
    forms are stored in their My Documents\FinePrint Files folder instead of
    in the systemwide \Program Files\FinePrint2000\users folder.

96. FinePrint no longer creates a folder in Program Files.  Each user's
    data files in \Program Files\FinePrint2000 will be automatically moved
    to their new locations (see #95 above) the next time the user prints to
    FinePrint.  Once all user data files have been moved, the

	by other page content

	middle - stationery is drawn above the graphics layer but below
	the text layer.  Watermarks appear underprinted below text, but
	overprinted on top of graphics.  This is the default.

Company History
---------------
We are FinePrint Software, a company founded in 1995 by Jonathan
Weiner and Mark O'Brien.  Our mission is to create printing products
that maximize the functionality of existing printing hardware.  Our
innovative approach to printing allows us to create software on all
Windows platforms that works with all existing printers.


Setting Default Paper Size
--------------------------
In many countries the default paper size is A4.  It is possible to set
FinePrint to always use this or other supported sizes by default.  In
the Start menu, open the Settings Printers folder, then right-click on
the FinePrint Driver and select one of the following commands:

- Properties (Windows 95/98/Me)
- Document Defaults (Windows NT)
- Printing Preferences (Windows 2000/XP)
	
This will present you with a list of choices, and you can select A4 or
any other supported paper size as the default.


FinePrint Dispatcher
--------------------
The FinePrint Dispatcher is a program that runs in the background and
manages the flow of print jobs within FinePrint.  The Dispatcher must
be running in order for FinePrint to operate.  If you ever get an error
message about "Could not locate the FinePrint Dispatcher", you can try
re-launching it from the FinePrint program group in the Start menu.  Or,
you can reboot your computer, since the Dispatcher is launched upon
startup.

full version for $39.95.  The purchasing system that we use lets you pay
