                       ==============================


           The FONTKAT package consists of two WordPerfect add-on
                      programs:  FONTKAT and FONTMAP.

                FONTKAT automates the process of creating a
                 catalog of fonts available to WordPerfect.

                  FONTMAP produces a printed keyboard map
                  for international/symbol/dingbat fonts.


            Requires WordPerfect 7.0, 6.1 or 6.0a (WIN versions)

     DEFINITION OF SHAREWARE
     =======================

     Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software
     before buying it. If you try a Shareware program and continue
     using it, you are legally required to register. With
     registration, you get anything from the simple right to continue
     using the software to an updated program with printed manual.

     Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and commercial software,
     and the copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific
     exceptions as stated below. Shareware authors are accomplished
     programmers, just like commercial authors, and the programs are
     of comparable quality. (In both cases, there are good programs
     and bad ones!) The main difference is in the method of
     distribution. The author specifically grants the right to copy
     and distribute the software, either to all and sundry or to a
     specific group. For example, some authors require written
     permission before a commercial disk vendor may copy their
     Shareware.

     Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You
     should find software that suits your needs and pocketbook,
     whether it's commercial or Shareware. The Shareware system makes
     fitting your needs easier, because you can try before you buy.
     And because the overhead is low, prices are low also. Shareware
     has the ultimate money-back guarantee--if you don't use the
     product, you don't pay for it.

     Introduction
     ============

     With WordPerfect and carefully chosen fonts just about anyone can
     create documents which look professionally printed. Very often
     the challenge is to find just the right font for the job at hand.
     The macros and templates in this package will allow you to create
     a printed catalog of all the fonts available to WordPerfect. With
     the printed catalog finding the right font will be much easier.

     WordPerfect 6.0, 6.1, & 6.0a
     ----------------------------

     This version of FontKat was tested with the versions of
     WordPerfect listed below. If you wish to run it with a NEWER
     version of WordPerfect, and it doesn't run as this manual says it
     should, call for support--there will be either a fix or a new
     release, as needed, to fix any problems caused by new features.

          WordPerfect 6.0a/WIN
          WordPerfect 6.1/WIN
          WordPerfect 7.0/WIN

     Installation
     ------------

     Installation of the files comprising the FONTKAT system is
     accomplished by running the appropriate setup macro provided. If
     you want to install FONKAT for use with either WP 6.0a or 6.1,
     use SETUP6. If you intend to use FONTKAT with WP 7.0, use SETUP7.

     Start WordPerfect for Windows as you normally do. From the
     editing screen activate the appropriate setup macro by pressing
     Macro (Alt-F10), enter the full path and filename to SETUP6.WCM
     or SETUP7.WCM (for example, "A:\SETUP7"). The installation
     program will prompt you to enter the information it needs:

          "Copy the files from:"
               This is where the uninstalled files are located.  The
               default value is A:\.  Edit the line as needed to
               reflect the full path to the files (such as
               "D:\DOWNLOAD", for instance).

          "Copy the macros to:"
               Your Main and Supplemental macro directories are shown
               as radio buttons. By default your Main macro directory
               is selected as the place to copy FONTKAT macro files
               to. If you want them placed in your Supplemental macro
               directory, simply click on it.

          "All other files will be copied to:"
               This is where the documentation file, template files,
               and other related documents, will be copied to. It will
               be a directory named FONTKAT created off of your
               WordPerfect program directory. You cannot edit this
               option.

          NOTE:  SETUPx.WCM will NOT be copied to either of these
               directories so be sure to keep a backup copy of the
               original FONTKAT disk.

     =======

     What Does Fontkat Do?
     ---------------------

     One of the nice features of Windows based programs is the ability
     to work with scalable fonts without relying upon an external
     third party program.  For the first time many of us were able to
     produce documents with class since we no longer had to rely upon
     the handful of fonts built into our printers.  Acquiring
     additional fonts from various outlets, in a short time the number
     of fonts I had available was getting into the hundreds.  Soon I
     was asking myself, "Which font should I use in this situation? 
     Is this the font which looked good on screen but terrible when
     printed?  What does this font REALLY look like?"

     FONTKAT is designed to create a custom catalog of your fonts. 
     With the printed catalog showing samples of all your fonts you
     will be able to quickly and easily choose the font which is just
     right for the job at hand.

     Overview
     --------

     In the next section I will explain in detail all options found on
     the various menus.  Assuming you can figure those things out for
     yourself, here is a quick run down of what is necessary to
     produce a catalog of all your fonts.

     From the main menu of FONTKAT select the text and point size you
     want to use in producing the font samples.  Click on "Select
     Fonts to Catalog" and select those fonts you want included in
     this catalog and click on OK.  Now from the main menu select
     "Create Catalog".  FONTKAT will prompt you to enter a filename to
     use in saving the finished catalog.  Once you've entered the
     filename, FONTKAT will go into action creating the font catalog.

     F O N T K A T   ( W I N )  V. 2.0                              11

     When done FONTKAT will give you a brief report of the font
     catalog just created.  FONTKAT will leave you with the first file
     comprising the catalog displayed on screen.

     Detailed Instructions
     ---------------------

     Using FONTKAT should be relatively easy and self-explanatory. 
     However, I will proceed to explain as thoroughly as possible the
     workings of the program to avoid any problems.

     Activate FONTKAT as you would any WordPerfect macro.  From the
     main editing screen press Macro (Alt-F10) and enter "FONTKAT".
     You can also click on the "FontKat" button on the main screen of
     the FONTMAP program (Not in Evaluation Edition).

     FONTKAT goes through an initialization process which will take a
     few seconds. When done, the main menu will appear.  It is divided
     into three sections:

         Current Printer
         ---------------
         The currently active printer is listed along with the total
         number of fonts you have selected to be cataloged and the
         total number of fonts available for this printer.  This
         section is for information purposes only.

         Text to Use in Sampling Each Font
         ---------------------------------
         There are six ways provided to sample each font.  These six
         options are mutually exclusive meaning when you select one of
         these options the others will automatically become
         unselected.

         1) You can have the font name itself to be the text to use
            in illustrating the font.  This is the default and what
            many will be satisfied with.

            Example:

            Times New Roman

         2) You can have a short phrase followed by the font name
            illustrating the font. The default setting for the short
            text is "This is a sample of ". If you select this option
            you will be prompted for the short text to use just prior
            to actually creating the catalog.

            Example:


     All Rights Reserved            (C)Copyright 1994-96 Alex D. Ogden




     F O N T K A T   ( W I N )  V. 2.0                              12

            This is a sample of Times New Roman

         3) You can have the font name to appear on one line and then
            the alphabet, along with the other characters available
            from the keyboard, indented on the next line. The font
            names themselves would all be in the same initial font
            but the indented alphabet beneath them would be in the
            actual font being illustrated.

            Example:

            Times New Roman
                ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
                1234567890-=  !@#$%^&*()_+  <>?,./:;'"{}[]

         4) Similar to number 3 above, you can have the font name on
            one line and a longer phrase indented on the next line. 
            If you select this option you will be prompted to choose
            the phrase to use just prior to creating the catalog.
            Several phrases are supplied to choose from or you can
            choose to type in your own phrase. You can even have
            FONTKAT to randomly use all supplied phrases (Not in
            Evaluation Edition).

            Example:

            Times New Roman
                The Quick Brown Fox Jumps over the Lazy Dog

         5) The fifth option is just like number 3 above except the
            phrase which will be used to illustrate the font is a
            sampling of multinational characters (Not in Evaluation
            Edition).

            Example:

            Times New Roman
               Multinational: , , , , , , ,  , , , , , 

         6) Yet another option is the One-Font-Per-Page Spec Sheet.
            With this option a spec sheet is created for each font
            selected. If it is a scalable font, the spec sheet will
            show the font in various point sizes and will briefly
            illustrate the different appearance attributes on the
            font (such as Bold, Italic, etc...). If it is not a
            scalable font, FONTKAT will seek to illustrate the
            various CPI (characters-per-inch) fonts available for
            that typeface. It will also show the affect of appearance
            attributes on the font (Not in Evaluation Edition).

         Font Options
         ------------

         This section presents various options dealing with the fonts
         themselves.  The default size for the font samples is 12
         point.  If you would like the samples to be of some other
         size, change this setting as needed.

         "Select Fonts to Catalog" presents you with a dialog box from
         which you select the fonts you want to catalog. This dialog
         box consists of two list boxes. The list on the left contains
         the names of those fonts which are NOT to be cataloged while
         the list on the right contains the names of those fonts you
         DO want to catalog. FONTKAT will retrieve the available fonts
         for your current printer the first time during a FONTKAT
         session you click on "Select Fonts to Catalog". Subsequent
         visits to this dialog box during a FONTKAT session will be
         much faster since the fonts will already be known.

         To move fonts from one list to the other, click on the name
         of the font in the list or use the appropriate "All" or
         "Pattern" button (Registered Edition Only) to move all of the
         list or only those fonts matching a text pattern. Once the
         list on the right contains the names of the fonts you want to
         catalog, click on OK.

     Creating the Catalog
     --------------------

     Once you have selected the fonts to include in the catalog, the
     "Create Catalog" option will become available at the bottom of
     the screen on the main menu.  When you select it, FONTKAT will
     prompt you to select or enter a phrase to use if you selected
     options 2 or 4 as the type of catalog to produce. 

     Next, FONTKAT will prompt you for a filename to use in saving
     your font catalog.  Due to limitations imposed by WordPerfect
     itself and to insure that everything stays under control, FONTKAT
     will save small groups of your fonts to separate files.  The
     actual number of fonts in the individual files will vary due to
     the type of font samples being created and because FONTKAT will
     end one file and begin the next at the end of the last full page
     of font samples.  These individual catalog segment files will be
     given the filename you enter with the file extension of ".Sxx",
     where xx is the number of the "S"egment file.  If you used the
     default FONTKAT filename then there may be FONTKAT.S01,
     FONTKAT.S02, FONTKAT.S03 and so on.  These files are saved in
     your default document directory.

     Before actually beginning to build the font catalog FONTKAT will
     have to sort the list of fonts selected for cataloging. This is a
     two pass process. If a large number of fonts have been selected
     for cataloging, this sorting process may take a few seconds.

     A dialog box will be displayed on screen during the cataloging
     process showing the progress being made.  The font currently
     being cataloged is listed along with two bars at the bottom
     showing the percent completed on the current font as well as all
     fonts.

     During the cataloging process you can click on "Pause Cataloging
     Process" to halt the process. You will be given three options:
         Resume Cataloging of Fonts.
         Cancel Catalog, Removing All Traces of Current Run.
         Cancel Catalog, Leaving Progress so Far.

     When done, FONTKAT will present a short message summarizing the
     catalog it has just created. The first segment file of your
     catalog will be on screen when FONTKAT ends.

     Printing Your Font Catalog
     --------------------------

     To obtain your printed catalog, print the various segment files
     of your catalog in order. If everything has gone as designed, you
     will have one continuous font catalog ready for use.

     Font Catalogs Using Multinational Character Sample
     --------------------------------------------------

     One of the options you have with FONTKAT is to create a font
     catalog illustrating the capabilities of selected fonts to print
     multinational characters.  This should be especially useful for
     users needing multinational characters who are uncertain which
     fonts support such characters.

     FONTKAT does not use the entire multinational character set but,
     rather, about a dozen carefully chosen characters to give you a
     sample of the more commonly used multinational characters.
         NOTE: if you know of additional characters which
            ought to be included in this option, please bring
            them to our attention.

     To print your font catalog with multinational character samples
     make certain you select "Do Not Print Graphics" from the Print
     Dialog. Printing your catalog in this way helps to show which
     fonts are missing multinational characters.

     Fontmap  (Not in Evaluation Edition).
     =======

     What Does Fontmap Do?
     ---------------------

     International/symbol/dingbat type of fonts are difficult to use
     simply because there is no easy way to know what keypress will
     type what character from the font.  FONTMAP is a utility to
     provide you with a printed keyboard map to such fonts.

     Detailed Instructions
     ---------------------

     You activate FONTMAP as you do any macro program. From the main
     editing screen press Macro (Alt-F10) and enter "FONTMAP". You can
     also click on the "FontMap" button on the main screen of the
     FONTKAT program  (Not in Evaluation Edition).

     When the main menu of FONTMAP appears the cursor will be on the
     "Create a Keyboard Font Map" button. Press ENTER or Click on it
     to begin the process of creating a map to a font.

     To create a font map you only need to specify two fonts.  Prior
     to displaying the Font dialog FONTMAP will present a short
     message about the font you are about to select. First, you will
     select a font which will be appropriate for the title for the
     font map as well as the labels for the keyboard keys.  Be sure
     whatever font you select is one which has the characters which
     match those on your keyboard.  Most of the fonts I have would
     qualify but some I thought would be appropriate had nothing
     showing for certain characters.  So be sure you select a font
     which has all the characters in it.

     Once you have selected the font for the title and key labels
     FONTMAP will prompt you to select the font for which you need a
     keyboard map.  This may be an international or symbol or dingbat
     font or any other type of font you want to have a keyboard map
     to. Once you have made your selection FONTMAP asks for you to
     confirm the choices you have made.  If the information is not
     correct, answer NO and start over.  Answering YES causes the
     actual keyboard font map to be created.

     Printing Your Font Map
     ----------------------

     Once the keyboard font map has been created FONTMAP asks if you
     want commands sent to WordPerfect to start printing your font
     map.  FONTMAP will simply send "Print Document on Disk" commands
     and nothing else.  FONTMAP will not:

         >  initialize your printer
         >  tell WordPerfect to print the job graphically
         >  set either text or graphics quality
         >  do anything else which may be necessary in your situation

     If any of these things needs to be done from within WordPerfect
     before printing your keyboard font map, answer NO to FONTMAP's
     prompt.  If you answer yes, FONTMAP will send the necessary
     commands to WordPerfect and end. If you answer no, FONTMAP will
     end with your font map on the screen.

     Trouble-shooter's Guide
     =======================

     At the time of release, only these problems were known. If you
     should experience any problems at all, please let us know. We
     will do all we can to rectify the problem. If it cannot be
     handled by FONTKAT, then a report of that problem will be posted
     in this slot.

     "After running a macro from a floppy disk, such as a Setup macro,
     there is a "Drive a: not ready" error message every time I start
     WordPerfect."

     The "drive a: not ready" problem is caused by a bug or a feature
     in WPWin, depending on how you define a bug. The programmers'
     intent was to allow you to speed-run a macro by pressing Alt-F10,
     Down Arrow, and selecting from the list of recently-run macros.
     That's convenient, but they made two assumptions that are
     unreasonable, specifically that the macros run are always on a
     non-removable drive, and that it would be OK to try to check the
     drive for their existence during start-up. Apparently, the
     problem is inconsistent, and does not happen to all users.

     The result is that running a macro from a CD-ROM or a floppy disk
     will trigger the problem. The first fix listed is the best, but
     unclear. Simply run any four different macros from the hard
     drive, possibly fontkat, graphcat, fontup, and fontdn. The later
     two shipped with WP, are harmless, and make only minor formatting
     changes to the current page. Note that retrieving a document from
     a floppy will cause the same problem, and that retrieving four
     documents from the hard drive will fix it. Unchecking the box in
     Preferences, Environment, Display Last Open Filenames will also
     fix the problem for most users.

     "Corel WP Suite shipped with so many fonts! There are so many
     that FontKat runs won't catalog them all!"

     Then don't do that. Creating catalogs of about 100 fonts is
     generally safe for most users; others will be able to catalog
     over 200 fonts at one time. Remember that if you break your
     catalogs up into sections, they're faster to update when you just
     add one or a handful of new fonts--just recreate those sections
     that have new or replacement fonts.
