------------------------------------------------------------------------------ README.TXT: LETTERHEAD.PRO FOR WORD FOR WINDOWS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thank for your interest in Letterhead Pro. This program will install 10 letterhead TEMPLATES, 6 logos, and 1 watermark into Word for Windows. Each letterhead may be selected when you open a NEW document. Of course, you must have Word for Windows installed prior to the installation of Letterhead Pro files. When you are finished using Letterhead Pro, all templates and related files may be UNINSTALLED with CLEANUP.EXE. Use the RUN selection on the Windows Program Manager menu (or equivalent), and select CLEANUP.EXE. This file is a special file that will remove all traces of Letterhead Pro templates and associated files. It may also be run from DOS in the Winword directory. The installation program is in two stages, DOS and Windows. The INSTALL program MUST be started from DOS by placing the diskette in a floppy drive and typing INSTALL. Do NOT call up Windows and execute the RUN command. After completing the necessary DOS portion of the installation, INSTALL will call up Word for Windows, and complete the installation. When PROLET.DOC is on screen, the installation is over and you are ready to begin. PROLET.DOC contains instructions on how to use Letterhead Pro. You will be shown how to order your own customized letterhead, logo, and watermark. It is a Word document and must be viewed and printed from inside Word for Windows. You should print PROLET.DOC so you may use it as a guide when displaying and printing the Letterhead Pro letterhead templates. You will be shown how you may obtain your own customized PCX graphic letterheads for Word. All instructions, worksheets, and order forms are included. If you wish, you may complete the Order Form from inside Word (use the TAB key to navigate from field to field in the Order Form). You may design your own letterhead, convert your present printed letterhead, or have CPI Software design a letterhead for you. CPI Software will convert this letterhead design into a PCX image file, place it into a Word Template, and return it to you. Each letterhead, logo, or watermark is only $29.95 each. If the printer you are currently using will print Window's pictures and graphics, it will print graphical PCX letterheads. This includes lasers, ink jets, and dot-matrix printers. You do NOT need special printer drivers or any add-ons to place a customized professionally created letterhead on all your Word documents. Word for Windows and Letterhead Pro are all you need. INSTALLATION Letterhead Pro may be installed in one of three ways. It may also be removed from your hard disk (uninstalled) using the CLEANUP command from Windows or DOS. 1. Standard Installation: The STANDARD installation assumes that you have never changed the name of Word's directory, and that it is still called "WINWORD." You will only have to know the letter of the hard where WINWORD is located. Place the program diskette into any floppy drive and type INSTALL. Follow the on screen instructions. When LETPRO.DOC is on screen, the installation is finished and you are ready to begin. 2. Custom Installation: This installation will let you place the letterhead templates into any directory you wish. However, you must know the path to Word's program files. For example, if you renamed the Word for Windows directory "WORD," then this would be the full path: C:\WORD If you are not sure how you had installed Word, then use this method. Locate the Word directory before the installation, and write down the proper DOS path. Then start the installation by placing the Letterhead Pro program diskette in any floppy drive. Type INSTALL, and follow the on screen directions. When LETPRO.DOC is on screen, the installation is completed. 3. Manual Installation: This method does not use the Letterhead Pro INSTALL program, but it must be done exactly as follows: a. Locate where the Word for Windows program files are on your hard disk. b. Log onto the Word directory, so that it is the current directory. Then use the DOS COPY command to copy TEMPLATE.EXE into that directory. If drive A is where the Letterhead Pro diskette is located, use the following command: COPY A:TEMPLATE.EXE c. When the TEMPLATE file is located in the Word directory, type TEMPLATE, and strike the ENTER key. The Letterhead Pro files will expand out of the TEMPLATE.EXE file. Then delete TEMPLATE.EXE with this command: DEL TEMPLATE.EXE Start Windows, and select the Word for Windows icon. When Word is on screen, OPEN the file LETPRO.EXE in the Word for Windows directory. You will find full instructions for obtaining your customized letterhead templates in this file. After you are through using Letterhead Pro, you may UNINSTALL all the Letterhead Profiles by selecting the CLEANUP.EXE file with the Windows Program Manager's RUN command. CPI Software also distributes Letterhead Pro for WordPerfect for DOS, Letterhead Pro for WordPerfect for Windows, Letterhead Pro for Ami Pro, Letterhead Pro for WordStar for DOS, and Letterhead Pro for WordStar for Windows.
