CALENDAR CREATOR PLUS README
October 6, 1993

This file provides technical information about editing the 
POWERUP.INI file for expert computer users. For general 
information about using the program, consult the Calendar 
Creator Plus User's Guide or the supplement (if any).

You can read this file on screen or print it by choosing 
Print from the File menu.


POWERUP.INI
===========
There are several options that you can set or add to your 
POWERUP.INI file to optimize the performance of Calendar Creator
Plus. 

The POWERUP.INI file is located in your Windows directory.  Make
a backup copy of the file before you start editing the file.  
Use a text editor like Notepad to edit the file.  You must exit 
Calendar Creator Plus and restart it for the changes to take 
effect. 

NOTE: The POWERUP.INI file is also used by other PowerUp products,
such as Express Publisher and PowerAlbum.  You should leave
any entries for those programs alone, or you may affect their
performance.

The default values and descriptions are listed below.  The 
characters in brackets (e.g. [Calendar Creator Plus]) define 
the section of the POWERUP.INI file where the entries are located.


[Calendar Creator Windows]
BackgroundMax=1900
This sets the maximum size, in dots, for background 
pictures. If you experience problems when printing large 
background pictures, you may want to set this option to a lower 
number. Since the value is in dots, you may get a larger
background picture on the screen than you do when printing.
(Min=100, Max=2400)


BigPictureBorderMargin=5
This sets the distance, in 1/100 of an inch, between the edge of
a big picture and its border on all four sides.  (Min=0, Max=100)


BigPictureDescMargin=2
This sets the distance, in 1/100 of an inch, between a 
big picture (or its border, if selected) and a big picture
title.  (Min=0, Max=100)


ClipboardFormats=2
This tells Calendar Creator Plus which graphic file format to use 
when you choose Edit | Copy Calendar to place a calendar on 
the Clipboard.  Some applications accept pictures pasted from 
the Clipboard better if they are bitmaps, others prefer 
metafiles.  Enter 1 for Bitmap, 2 for Metafile, or 3 for both. 

If you are using a high resolution, 256-color video driver, you 
may experience problems with the bitmap format.  In that 
case, you must use setting 2.


ColumnWidthTestString=NNNNNN
Enter a number of characters to specify how much space must 
exist to the side of small left- or right-justified event 
pictures in order to place the event text next to the 
picture.  Calendar Creator Plus uses the width of the group of 
characters in the event's font and type size to calculate the 
space.  If you decrease the number of characters, more event 
names will appear to the side of small graphics, but they are 
likely to be heavily hyphenated. (Min=2 characters, Max=10 
characters)


EventMarginX=1
EventMarginY=1
These control the line space between events and the margins 
between events and the date box boundaries.  The numbers are 
in 1/100 of an inch.  If you decrease the number, events will 
appear closer together and closer to the date box boundary. 
(Min=1, Max=20)


FooterMargin=5
This sets the distance, in 1/100 of an inch, between the
bottom of the calendar and the footer.  (Min=0, Max=100)


HeaderMargin=5
This sets the distance, in 1/100 of an inch, between the
bottom of the largest header element (either title, subtitle,
title picture, or small calendar) and the top of the calendar.
(Min=0, Max=100)


Hebrew=Yes
Set this to No to turn off the display of the Hebrew &fields in
the &field dialog, and the Repeat Every Hebrew anniversary rules
on the Repeat dialog.  This does not affect the translation or use
of Hebrew &fields and repeat rules that already exist in event 
lists or workspaces.


HyphenZone=30
This is the size, in 1/100 of an inch, that the program leaves
at the end of a line without trying to hyphenate words to fit 
in the space.  If you decrease this number, Calendar Creator 
Plus will hyphenate more words. (Min=10, Max=100) 


ImportExportDelimiter=,
This sets the delimiter used when importing or saving to comma
delimited files (CSV).  You can set this to another character 
(like a hyphen [-] or a period), if desired.  


MidPointMargin=15
Used only for layouts with Big Picture on Top.  
Specify in 1/100 of an inch how much margin to leave in the 
middle of the page, below the big picture and above the 
calendar.  This affects how far down the calendar will appear 
on the bottom half of the page, and how far up the big picture 
and its title (if any) will appear on the top half of the page. 
(Min=0, Max=100)


MinColumnWidth=100
This sets the minimum width, in 1/100 of an inch, of event columns
specified in the Layout Options/Event Display dialog.  When using
either automatic mode or a user-specified number of columns, the
program will not make any columns smaller than this width.  

NOTE: This may result in the number of actual columns displayed 
being different from the number specified.  (Min=0, Max=999)


MinDiskSpace=512
This sets the minimum disk space, in kilobytes, needed in your
Temp drive before Calendar Creator Plus will start.  (Min=0, Max=64000)


MinFreeSpace=1024
This sets the minimum free memory, in kiloBytes, needed before
Calendar Creator Plus will start.  (Min=0, Max=64000)


MinNoteHeight=14
This sets the minimum distance, in 1/100 of an inch, between
lines in the ToDo areas of the two-page month, week schedule, and
day layouts.  Calendar Creator Plus adjusts the distance based on
form size, but the distance will get no smaller than this value.
(Min=0, Max=99)


MinResourceSpace=5
This sets the minimum amount, expressed as a percentage, of 
system resources that must be available before Calendar Creator 
Plus will start. (Min=0, Max=99)


MinWordLength=7
This is the minimum word length required under normal 
circumstances to have Calendar Creator Plus hyphenate a word 
that does not fit on a line.  If you decrease the number, 
Calendar Creator Plus will hyphenate shorter words. (Min=3, 
Max=10) 


NoteLines=40
This option determines the number of dashed lines to print
in the To Do areas of the 2-page month, work schedule, and 
day layouts. The total available area is divided by this 
number to yield the number of dashed lines. The distance 
between lines can be no smaller than the MinNoteHeight.


PictureBorder=4
This sets the distance, in 1/100 of an inch, between event 
pictures and the cell borders or adjacent event text. 
(Min=0, Max=30)


PrintFontsInBlack=Yes
For black and white (non-color) printers only.
This option controls how colored fonts print on black and white
printers when the Print In Black And White checkbox in the 
Print dialog box is turned OFF (blank).

If this option is set to Yes, all nonwhite fonts will print 
in black.  If the option is set to No, then nonwhite fonts 
will be dithered by the printer driver which may result in their
appearing very light or disappearing.


PrintPreview=0
This controls the display of text in the small print preview 
calendars that appear in the Printing dialog box.  The default 
setting of 0 turns off the display of text, showing only 
pictures and lines.  A setting of 1 displays the text along with 
the pictures and lines.  If you are using video drivers that were 
not supplied with Windows, you should leave this setting at 0 to 
avoid possible problems.  Otherwise, you can use a setting of 1 
to display the text.


SecondLineIndentPercent=8
This tells the program to indent the second and subsequent lines
of event names by the specified percentage of the column width.
Decrease the number to leave a smaller indent. (Min=0, Max=50) 


SecondLineIndentMax=15
This sets the maximum distance, in 1/100 of an inch, that the 
program can indent second and subsequent lines of event names. 
The indent is controlled by the SecondLineIndentPercent discussed
above.  (Min=0, Max=50)


[Calendar Creator Print Options]
FudgeX=0        
FudgeY=0
These adjust the printed output on each page to allow for minor 
printer adjustments and form alignment.  You can enter a positive 
or negative integer to move the output in the X and/or Y 
direction in 1/100 of an inch.  FudgeX moves the output left and 
right across the page; FudgeY moves the output up and down the 
page.  Note that the paper width is defined on the Page Setup 
dialog box in Calendar Creator Plus. (Min=-100, Max=100)


[SHOWPICT]
KodakPCDSizes=192,128,384,256,20000,20000,1536,1024,3072,2048
You normally should never have to change this setting.
Kodak CD's contain each image in five different resolutions. 
Calendar Creator Plus uses this INI setting to determine which
resolution to use. This depends on the picture size needed on the
calendar, and the resolution of your screen or printer.  

The numbers are pairs of x and y sizes (in pixels) that define 
the boundaries of each resolution.  Calendar Creator Plus uses
the pair that is one size larger than the image requires. For 
example, if an image were 180 pixels across by 100 pixels down, 
the program would use resolution pair number 1 (192, 128).


BigTif=No
This option limits the size of the TIFF files that can be 
displayed or printed in Calendar Creator Plus. If the setting is 
No, you cannot read in TIFF files larger than 1 Mb. Changing the 
setting to Yes allows you to read in larger TIFF files, but it 
may cause problems with some video drivers. If you want to use 
larger TIFFs and experience problems, try rerunning Windows Setup 
and choosing a lower resolution setting for Display.


[Aliases]
Roman=TimesNewRomanPS
Modern=Arial MT
These aliases are used to assign the fonts when you choose
Workspace/New or open one of the event lists that ships with 
Calendar Creator Plus.  The aliases are only used when the program
cannot find an alias for the Roman or Modern fonts in WIN.INI 
(when using TrueType) or ATM.INI (when using ATM).
