    GEMvelope! Demo README file

Finally, quick and easy printing of envelopes on your printer!
GEMvelope allows you to print envelopes on almost any printer.  Laser
(and most other) printers will not feed an envelope so that you may
print across it.  GEMvelope solves this problem allowing you to print
even legal size envelopes on virtually all laser printers and dot
matrix printers, including the HP DeskJet.  GEMvelope was developed to
work hand in hand with most word processors and data bases to provide
a complete solution.  This latest version (2.9) continues to expand
and refine a product which has been continuously upgraded and supported
over the past three years.

GEMvelope Features:

 Import allows extracting an address from a letter in almost any
  word processor format (or from the GEM/Atari clipboard).

 Mail merge/browse allows printing one or many envelopes with an
  address imported from a database file such as Cardfile or Tracker/ST.
  (Database import is fully user-definable.)

 Special HP DeskJet support!

 Adjustable positioning for different size envelopes.

 Load-able and save-able addresses and configuration.

 POSTNET bar code printing for speeding your mail. (Will also save
  two cents per letter in the future according to the US Post Office!)

 A new text line is available and is placed at the bottom left of an
  envelope.  This is for adding messages like "Attention:  John Doe"
  or "Personal & Confidential".

 The program version runs in a window and supports a menu bar.

 A desk accessory version ideal for using from within programs like
  Tracker/ST!

 GEMvelope uses and includes GDOS and drivers for the following printers: 
  Atari SLM804/605, HP LaserJet compatible, HP DeskJet, 
  Epson FX80/LX compatible 9 pin, Epson/Panasonic compatible 24 pin, 
  Star NX1000, Okimate 20.

 Includes Swiss, Dutch and Typewriter fonts. 
  Fully compatible with FSM and bitmapped GDOS fonts.

 Compatible with all Atari ST and TT computers with 1 meg RAM.  
  Atari SLM laser printers require 2 megs of RAM.
  Also compatable with MultiTOS.


This demo is fully functional except for the following:

- You cannot Load or Save addresses and setups.
- Various Alert boxes are added to describe features and slow operation.
- When POSTNET codes are enabled, a message is printed under the address.
- Printing merged addresses are limited.

The complete manual is in the file MANUAL.TXT.  Instructions on using
GEMvelope with Tracker/ST are in the file TRACKER.TXT.  Since setup
loading is disabled in this demo version, following are the Merge
setups for two popular ST databases.  These may be entered manually;
in the registered version, they may be loaded from disk.
