PrintEnvelope will print your company logo and gives you access to your printer fonts, font sizes and attributes. When printing envelopes, there is no need to manually change your printers orientation or to do a Printer Setup on most printers. The program is written in Microsoft's Visual Basic and requires Windows Version 3.x and the Visual Basic runtime VBRUN300.DLL. Installing PrintEnvelope for Windows: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PrintEnvelope and its Setup program require Microsoft's Visual Basic runtime VBRUN300.DLL. This file is provided on the Install Disk #1 and will be properly installed for you. If you acquired this copy of PrintEnvelope from a BBS, then the file is not included (to save space) and must be present in your WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory before running Setup. You can find VBRUN300.DLL on most BBSs, look for VBRUN3.ZIP or call Maurer Associates for assistance in locating the file. 1. If Windows in not already running, Type WIN at the DOS command prompt. 2. Insert the PrintEnvelope Install Disk #1 in your computer's floppy disk drive. 3. Double-click the Windows Program Manager, if it is not already open. 4. From the Program Manager's File menu, choose Run. 5. In the Run window, click in the Command Line box. Now type a:setup if you are installing from drive A, or type b:setup if you are installing from Drive B. (The setup program may also be run from a sub-directory on your hard disk if desired.) 6. Click OK to continue and the PrintEnvelope Setup window will appear. 7. Setup will create a Program Manager Group and install the PrintEnvelope icon in the new Group. After installation, you may move the program icon to another group and delete the PrintEnvelope group if you desire. If you are not using Program Manager as your desktop shell, the setup program may not have been able to create the new Program Manager Group and copy the PrintEnvelope icon. DDE is required for this operation and some replacement shells do not support DDE. If this is the case, install the icon to your desktop using your shells directions or run the Program Manager and follow the following directions: If necessary, install PrintEnvelope in the program group of your choice by: 1. Open the Program Group you wish to install PrintEnvelope into. 2. Select FILE in the Program Manager and choose NEW. 3. Click OK to select Program Item. 4.
