	What is Print Direct?
	---------------------
	Print Direct is a Windows'95/Windows'NT utility that allows
	bypassing printer drivers.
	Bypassing printer drivers might be desirable when:
	1. You want to distribute a document ready to print
	2. You want to print on a printer that has no driver, so you 
	   want to send formatting characters to it.
	You might ask why I can not do the aboves with the Generic/Text only
	printer driver? Well, this driver will still send some formatting 
	characters. In some cases they are harmless in others you need Print
	Direct.

	Installation
	------------
	1. Extract the self-executable archives into an empty temporary 
	   directory
	2. Run SETUP.EXE in this directory

	After installation
	------------------
	The Print Direct icon should appear on the desktop.
	The Print Direct server should be installed and registered.

	How to use Print Direct
        -----------------------
	You have two ways to operate it:
	1. Using the default printer only
	   Drag the file you want to print from the Explorer and drop it
	   to the Print Direct icon on the desktop.
	2. Using any of the installed and active printers
	   Click on the Print Direct icon on the desktop. Select the
	   printer from the list of available printers. Select the file
	   you want to print from the dialog appears.

	Print Direct for programmers
	----------------------------
	The package you downloaded includes Print Direct OLE Server. You
	can use it from your VB, C++, Delphi, Visual FoxPro, MSAccess,
	MSWord, Excel, etc. program through the Object Browser once you

	It includes three functions:
