SHORT: Official Patch for PageStream 2.2 -> 2.2 HL Architecture: m68k-amigaos PAGESTREAM 2.2 HL README FIRST ============================== Welcome to PageStream 2.2.HL. This is a maintenance upgrade from PageStream 2.2. Make sure you read all of the readme files. They contain important information on installation. NEW FEATURE =========== BREAK LINKS: You can now 'un-publish' a picture or text article to break the link between it and the edition file on disk. To break the link select the desired element and then choose the Publish command while holding down a Shift key. IMPROVED AND FIXED ================== LANDSCAPE PRINTING: Printing landscape pages to non-PostScript printers with an unequal aspect ratio (ie: 180x360 dpi instead of for example 180x180dpi) distorted bitmap pictures. This is fixed in 2.2 HL. IMPORT PICTURES: Importing graphics into picture windows did not work if certain program settings were defaulted on in 2.2. This is fixed in 2.2 HL. POSTSCRIPT TYPE 1 FONTS: The normal, roman or standard style of all fonts is now correctly displayed in the font requester. FILE REQUESTERS: PageStream will now work with replacements for AmigaDOS 2.04's ASL file requester such as FR_Bypass (Khalid's file requester) or the MFR (Magic File Requester). 8 AND 16 COLOR MODES: Window gadget highlighting now matches the 2.04 standard. TAGS: Appending tags, appending documents and hotlinking text now checks to see if a tag already exists before adding it to the list so multiple copies of tags will not accumulate. HOTLINKS: Many changes have been made to the HotLinks features in 2.2 HL. If you use HotLinks you must use 2.2 HL, not 2.2. HOTLINKS EDITIONS IS NOW AVAILABLE!!! ===================================== Soft-Logik Publishing is proud to announce that HotLinks Editions is now shipping. This package contains everything you need to start using HotLinks right away. It includes BME (BitMap Editor), PageLiner (text processor) and HotLinks itself. You can purchase it from your local dealer or order it from sales for $99.95. It is available directly from Soft-Logik to registered owners of PageStream for just $75 for a limited time. PageStream 2.2 HL is a HotLinks compatible application. Watch for more exciting HotLinks programs from your favorite Amiga software houses. If one of your programs isn't HotLinks compatible and you would like HotLinks features added to it, call its technical support department and request that they add HotLinks. ATTENTION REGISTERED AMIGA DEVELOPERS ===================================== If you would like to add HotLinks to your programs, call Soft-Logik at 800-829-8608 and ask for Dan Weiss. He will get you our HotLinks developer package. This package is available free to developers. COMING SOON =========== The next issue of DTP World, the Soft-Logik newsletter, will be mailed to all registered owners of Soft-Logik products. If you have not mailed in your registration card or if you've moved and not informed us of your new address you will not receive DTP World. "Where is Art Expression?" We are still working on this exciting new Amiga illustration package. We will let you know by mail as soon as it is ready for release. No shipping date has been set at this time. DON'T FORGET... =============== Don't forget about the exciting Soft-Logik Typeface Library. This collection of over 600 PostScript Type 1 fonts can be used with any printer with PageStream 2.2 HL. They will also work with the upcoming Art Expression illustration program. Attention Saxon Publisher and Professional Page users: you can now use these fonts with Professional Page 3.0 (Gold Disk reportedly supplies a font conversion program which will accept these fonts for use with ProPage 3.0), and with Saxon Publisher 1.2 (SaxonScript is used to create Saxon format fonts.) Contact Gold Disk or Saxon Industries for more information on font compatibility with their software. And don't forget the Soft-Logik Graphic Library. This collection of 21 volumes of high quality Encapsulated PostScript clip art is the ideal source for all your illustration needs, and is now available from your dealer or Soft-Logik Publishing. Virtually all of these graphics are in Illustrator EPS format so they can be imported into PageStream as editable objects. EPS clip art can also be used with Art Expression, Professional Page and Saxon Publisher. THANK YOU ========= Thank you for using PageStream. We hope you enjoy this latest free upgrade.
