With the prices of floptical disks dropping in price, the floptical has become a very economical alternative in storage. I have recommended your company to many people that I know, with the secure feeling that they will receive the same outstanding service and product that I have. - Dennis H. Yogi ---------- I was _very_ pleased with the service you provided in getting the Freedom Floptical Drive to me while I was on a business trip in Chicago. It reduced my shipping expenses considerably over shipping to Canada, as well as getting the FFD to me considerably quicker. I was very pleased with the FFD. It was easy to get set up, works like a charm, and is exactly the thing I need in my system, where I was looking for something smaller, more portable, and less expensive than a removable cartridge hard drive for use in back-ups and transportability between machines (I have 2 Mega ST4's and a TT030, and frequently want to move large amounts of data between them.) By the way, I have been so pleased with the FFD, that a friend of mine with an ST wants me to order a floptical for him. I also have decided that I would like a second floptical, so I can have one unit at home and one at the office. - Roger Humphries ---------- If you'd like a free color brochure, have any questions, or would like to order a Freedom Floptical Drive, just get in touch: GEnie: PMC.INC Purple Mountain Computers, Inc. 15600 NE 8th St. Ste.

[EOA] [CL3]////////////////////////////// CALLIGRAPHER 3 / ///////////////////////////////// New Features For Immediate Release CodeHeadQuarters Tuesday, January 12, 1993 ------------------------- ******************************************************* * * * Calligrapher 3 * * * * The Next Generation Of The Ultimate Writing Machine * * * ******************************************************* LOS ANGELES - CodeHead Technologies and Working Title US are proud to announce the release of Calligrapher 3! If you're already familiar with Calligrapher, you know it's a powerful, intuitive, graphics-based word processor. Now, Calligrapher 3 adds terrific new features, streamlines the installation procedure, is compatible with the Falcon030 and MultiTOS, and no longer uses GDOS! This document describes the enhancements and changes in Calligrapher 3, as well as the procedure for upgrading to version 3. If you are unfamiliar with Calligrapher and its features, you can obtain an excellent overview by trying out the Calligrapher 3 demo package, available by calling CodeHead Technologies (213) 386-5735, or by downloading the demo from any of the popular online networks. Enhancements ------------ o GDOS (G+Callig) and Line_Arc have been built into Calligrapher itself, so there is no longer any special startup disk and nothing is required in the AUTO folder. This makes it much more compatible with other GDOS programs since there is no overlap, and also makes installation and setup MUCH easier and less trouble-prone. o If you have a hard disk and 2Mb, Calligrapher displays vector fonts on screen. The new edition caches screen fonts more intelligently, speeding up the opening of documents and moving through documents that contain vector fonts. o Supports Esc-P2 printers (Epson Dot Matrix printers that support 360dpi compressed mode). o Allows you to reduce the amount of memory taken by Calligrapher to make it compatible with multitasking operating systems such as MultiGem and MultiTOS. o A new easy-to-use fast install program supporting 1.44Mb disk drives and the new features of Calligrapher. This program uses a GEM dialog box and is more intelligent; it reads in as many files as will fit in memory and then writes them to the hard drive, and requires a minimal amount of disk swapping. o Templates - documents with the extension CAT, are treated as base documents. (Similar to 'stationery' documents on the Macintosh.) Calligrapher will prompt you to rename them when they are saved. Also there is a default template that is loaded when Calligrapher is first started. This allows you, for example, to save the ruler settings for your default ruler. o The FlexText module now allows you to USE ANY URW typeface, not just the included ones. o On a TT, Calligrapher now moves its code into TT RAM to run 30% faster. o Import/export of Rich Text Format (RTF) files has been added to the import module. These files allow you to keep the style and fonts within a document, together with any footnotes, when you transfer to other programs that support RTF. o The integral symbol and brackets in Calligrapher's mathematical formulae have been improved. o There are new commands in formulae to cover set symbols, and things such as products. Equivalents have been added in the interactive formula editor. o When you adjust markers on the ruler (margins, tabs, etc.), a vertical line is drawn to help you gauge positions. o Mark a section and increase or decrease all font sizes proportionally (by the proportion 9/10ths or 10/9ths). o Keyboard shortcuts have been added to the interactive formula editor. o A new program allows you to change Calligrapher's internal setup. This allows adjustments to its memory, printer and other internal details. o The supplementary language disks have been improved. Spanish includes a Catalan dictionary and a Spanish thesaurus. German has a German dictionary and thesaurus. Italian has a Catalan dictionary. o A triple click on a paragraph selects the whole paragraph. o When running under a multitasking operating system, the disk-based clipboard is switched on, allowing you to cut and paste text dynamically between applications. o Two printers are supported at the same time, allowing you to switch between them at print time. o A separation line has been added between footnotes and the body of text. o Calligrapher 3 remembers the pathname when inserting multiple graphics into a document. o There is a driver for the Ricoh 1200 laser printer at 400dpi. System Requirements ------------------- o Calligrapher 3 Professional requires 1 Mb of RAM and a floppy disk. Calligrapher 3 Gold requires 1 Mb and a hard disk. Version 3 requires more memory than version 2, so if your documents are at the limit of memory with version 2, you will be over the limit with version 3. New Fonts --------- o There are 20 new URW typefaces available, number 67 through 86. o These new fonts will only work with version 3 of Calligrapher. o Previously purchased font disks can be re-installed to work with Calligrapher 3 by using a new install program included with the upgrade. o Font charts files will be uploaded to the online services, allowing you to print out sample displays of the new fonts on your own printer. o The new fonts are as follows: 67 Goudy 72 Stencil 77 T-bird Cond. 82 Olde Towne No. 536 68 Grotesque No.9 73 Stop 78 Latin Wide 83 News Gothic 69 Hobo 74 Serpentine 79 Murray Hill 84 Raleigh 70 Nevison Casual 75 Thorowgood 80 Park Avenue 85 Romana Demi Bold 71 Playbill 76 Thunderbird 81 Maxima 86 Stymie Items Removed ------------- Some things have been removed due to the changes in the way Calligrapher operates. If any of these things are essential to your needs, you should not upgrade, or you should make sure to save an installed copy of your current Calligrapher. o Bitmap GDOS printer fonts are no longer supported. Only URW outline fonts will be output to your printer. o Sizefont, Editfont, and Assign Edit have been dropped as they are no longer relevant. o The ability to print to disk in PTD format has been removed, along with DiskPrnt. o FlexText no longer runs as a separate program, due to the lack of GDOS/G+Callig support. It must be run as a PAK. Some changes have been made to reduce the amount of memory it consumes. (It can run on a 1 Mb system). Upgrade Procedure ----------------- When you upgrade to Calligrapher 3, you're also entitled to one FREE URW outline font disk (worth $34.95). And since the new version of Calligrapher only works with the URW outline fonts, any additional font families that you purchase along with the upgrade are only $25 (a $10 discount). o The upgrade price from version 2 to version 3 is $45. o The upgrade price from Calligrapher Professional version 2 to Calligrapher Gold version 3 is $100. o The upgrade price (either $45 or $100) includes ONE FREE URW FONT DISK, worth $34.95. Any one of the existing typefaces may be chosen, including the new fonts mentioned above. o The upgrade is available to anyone who owns the Working Title US (CodeHead) version of Calligrapher and has received a registered disk 5 from us. o The upgrade may be purchased by phone or E-Mail by supplying us with a credit card number (including expiration date) and a shipping address. It is not necessary to return your original disks. o The upgrade may also be ordered by mail with a check or money order. o The upgrade includes five disks plus the free font disk and printed documentation for the new additions. o Additional URW font disks may be purchased with the upgrade at the price of $25 each. o Shipping and handling charges for the upgrade are $3 US, $4 Canada, and $6 overseas. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Working Title US, a division of CodeHead Technologies, is the official US importer of Working Title products.

This will in no way effect my guarantee on installations already done, and rest assured that I will remain available for any needed service long after the warantee period. I apologise for abandoning those who have expressed interest and were planning to upgrade in the future, and I may still do an occasional upgrade on an occasional basis. But the project as a whole has proven to be much too much work, and is draining my resources too quickly to continue on a regular basis. One possible benefit to you out of all this is th at if you have an STE in need of SIMMS, I have about 3 dozen wich I'm now looking to lose. These are 1- meg SIMMS ready to plug and play in any STE or mega-STE, and They're available to anyone interested for $25. Figure about 50 cents more per SIMM for shipment anywhere in the US. Leave me E-mail. If someone wishes to buy me out for the whole batch, I'll cut you an even better deal. Don't miss this chance, as SIMM prices just don't get any better than this!

Calligrapher 3 does not require the use of GDOS or G+Callig as GDOS has been built into Calligrapher 3. While GDOS is not used by Calligrapher 3, GDOS printer drivers are used by Calligrapher 3 for printing. We have been informed by Codehead Technologies that users of Calligrapher 3 will be able to use the existing STraight FAX! GDOS Printer Driver (STFAX.SYS) to "print-to-disk" FAX files. The STFAX.SYS driver should be copied to the Calligrapher 3 FONTS folder and the Calligrapher 3 Setup program should be used to select this driver as one of the two printer drivers that may be selected. While we have not verified this here at NewSTar Technology Management, the STFAX.SYS GDOS Printer Driver was constructed using Atari Corporation's GDOS Printer Driver Builder Kit just as regular GDOS printer drivers are. Calligrapher 3 uses its own scalable font technology, so we anticipate that FAX files generated with Calligrapher 3 will be of the same high quality as the FAX files generated from Calamus, PageStream and FSM/Speedo GDOS applications. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- To re-register the STraight FAX! with NewSTar Technology Management, users may FAX their registration information to our FAX support number at Toad Computers at 410-544-1329 or send _private_ GEMail to C.S.SMETON. Our postal mailing address is: NewSTar Technology Management P.O. Box 122 Columbia, Maryland 21045-0122 Please be sure to include your 10 digit Registration Number, place of purchase and your online mailing address. We are also asking that any users who are still waiting for disk upgrades, new manuals, Font GDOS or the Canon/Navaronne Scanner driver from orders placed with the previous marketing company to please let us know about your order via FAX, private GEMail or postal mail. Users who have never sent in their Registration Cards or who have just purchased the STraight FAX! should re-address their Registration Card to the mailing address above.

Hartman [J.G.H.] Atari Roundtable, PR Sysop [EOA] [SAC]////////////////////////////// SAC EXPO / ///////////////////////////////// Sacramento, CA, Mar 13 & 14 Howdy Y'all, taint no excuse for missin' the SAC Expo! The Sacramento Atari ST User Group (the 'Mighty SST') is going all out for a wing ding of a rompin' stompin', Fuji flippin' fandingle called the "SAC Expo." Saddle up 'old Paint' and hit the road for Sac town to join the wildest bunch of crazed Atari maniacs ever to braze the old trail. Carouse with the Codeheads, run barefoot through the Barefoot booth, watch out for diamond backs in the Oregon Research booth, and do you know the way to the San Jose Computer booth? Our own STeve's Software will be rustlin' up deals in his corral, and you won't find Marcel Software clowning around; they'll be too busy debuting their new product! Help yourself to some Cottonwood Computer candy and make sure you mosey on over to the fabulous SST booth and have a chew with the gang! All this merriment and frivolity will take place the 13th and 14th of March 1993, at the Towe Ford Museum near old town Sacramento. There are zillions of ways to find out about the SAC Expo!!! Call the Towe Museum at (916) 442-6802. Call Sports Leisure Travel (for hotel or travel bookings) at 1-800-321-4758 (ask for Mark or Del). Write GEnie Mail to SST's own Mark Warner at M.WARNER8. Or shucks, just call the newly elected SST President/SAC Expo vendor coordinator Nick Langdon at (916) 723-6425. It couldn't be any easier! Tickets for the show are $6 for one day and $10 for both. As an added convenience, advance tickets may be purchased by mailing a self addressed stamped envelope, and the appropriate amount of funds to: SST P.O. BOX 214892 Sacramento, CA 95821-0892 And don't forget folks! Paid admission to the SAC Expo also entitles you to the auto exhibits of the fabulous Towe Ford Museum. The Towe has the largest collection of antique Ford automobiles in the WORLD!! So dash out of your dude ranch and come see how the Towe's Ford Falcon compares to Atari's version. See ya at the SAC EXPO!

Leave EMAIL to R.LEVY8 ---------- I have a Casio CZ-5000 CosmoSynthesizer for sale. It has a full 61 key keyboard and a 5 Octave range. It is a totally digital synthesizer that is under LSI(Large Scale Integrated circuit) control and is designed using the same principles that apply to analog synthesizers, thus eliminating the frequently heard complaint about digital synthesizers being too complex. This makes the unit actually a Hybrid that combines the operational ease of an analog synthesizer with the tonal quality of a digital model. It features a built in digital sequencer essential for multi-track recording. This means that multiple track compositions free of noise can be produced easily. I originally paid $700 but would be willing to take $300 or Best offer. Put the MIDI Ports of your ATARI to good use! Interested parties should call (504) 340-7825.
