- EasyCASE Plus version 1.21
-
- EasyCASE Plus version 1.21 fixes the following bugs and enhances several
- functions as follows :
-
- a. Re-wrote the HP LaserJet drivers so that less resident memory in the LaserJet
- printer is used allowing more complex charts to be printed at 300dpi on HP
- LaserJets equipped with only 512K of memory. However, depending on the complexity
- of a chart, it is still quite possible that it may become impossible to print
- out an entire page at 300 dpi resolution. This is a limitation imposed by the
- amount of memory present in the printer and the way complex images are stored,
- it is NOT caused by EasyCASE Plus. To guarantee printing of complex images at
- 300 dpi, you need 1 Mbyte of memory.
-
- b. Fixed a bug which was causing improper printing of images at 100dpi in
- Landscape paper orientation on LaserJet printers.
-
- c. Added support for printing on LaserJets at 75dpi, though with a slight
- descrease in the number of symbols which can fit on the page horizontally and
- vertically.
-
- d. Removed the LASERJET and DESKJET options from the printer selection menu
- and replaced them with HPLJ @ 75dpi and HPLJ @ 100dpi. DeskJet printers ARE
- LaserJet (HPLJ) compatible so you should select the appropriate HPLJ @ xxx dpi
- driver if you want to print on a DeskJet or DeskJet Plus.
-
- e. Fixed a bug which would cause endless beeping and lockup until the Escape
- key is pressed when selecting, under certain conditions, the (double ended)
- arrowheads option from the main menu or selecting a flow to change the number
- of arrowheads on.
-
- f. Added a new option to the #Arrowheads option dialog box. This option is only
- enabled for ERDs and enables you to draw an Association with a SINGLE
- arrowhead at the SOURCE end and a DOUBLE arrowhead at the DESTINATION end of
- the connection to represent, for example, one-to-many relationships. If you
- need a double arrow at the source and a single arrow at the destination, either
- draw the association connection in the opposite direction or select the option
- to change its direction.
-
- g. Added two more options to the Export menu to provide Microsoft Windows v2.03
- and PC Paintbrush files at 150 dpi resolution. The other options produce images
- at 90 dpi. The 150 dpi image is produced quite quickly but takes a lot longer to
- load into PageMaker, Designer, Ventura etc. and is larger than a normal page and
- hence has to be scaled to fit. This results in a slight reduction in quality but
- is still much better than the 90dpi image quality. Also, because the image does
- now consist of a lot more points, you are more likely to get an out-of-memory
- error when running applications under Microsft Windows when loading these 150dpi
- images into Windows applications such as PageMaker. The 150dpi image has NOT yet
- been tested with WordPerfect or Word v5, Ventura or Manuscript. The 90dpi images
- HAVE been tested with those products.
