KazStamp Main Window

Post Office Bar Codes
Post Office Bar Code

KazStamp automatically prints a bar code on the envelope which the post office uses to route your letter.  The bar code represents the five or nine digit zip code that the letter is addressed to.  This feature can be enabled or disabled using the Envelope command.


Return Address Graphic

KazStamp can print a graphic to the left of the return address.  The graphic can be a bitmap (.BMP file extension), icon (.ICO file extension), or a Windows metafile (.WMF file extension).

To choose a graphic, use the Select Graphic command to select an existing graphic file.  To print without a graphic, use the Clear Graphic command.  To edit the graphic, use the Edit Graphic command.

You can use the Windows Paintbrush application, or any other graphic editor, to create a graphic file.  For best results, use a monochrome graphic for a single color printer.

The size of the printed graphic can be specified with the Envelope command.  However, icons cannot be resized.


KazLines Registration
KazStamp Registration

There are two versions of KazStamp - demonstration and registered.  (Use the About command from the Help menu to determine which version you have.)  The demonstration version contains the same features found in the registered version.  However, the demonstration version runs for a maximum of one hour at a time.

You may use the demonstration version of KazStamp for up to fifteen days to evaluate the software.  After these fifteen days, the program must be registered with Kaczynski Software if you continue to use it.

To register KazStamp, print a registration form using the Print Registration Form command from the File menu.  Fill out the form and send it to Kaczynski Software with your registration fee of only $5.  You will receive the registration number to register your copy.  In addition, you will receive a disk with the most recent version of KazStamp if you do not already have it.

KazStamp Files

KazStamp opens and saves plain text files that are used by any text editor, such as the Windows Notepad.  Although any file extension can be used, KazStamp uses a default file extension of ".ENV".

The benefit of saving files with the KazStamp file extension is that they can be opened directly into KazStamp by double clicking on the file name in either the File Manager or Program Manager.
