- INSTALLING FPLOT
-
- A) Hard Disk System
-
- 1) To install FPLOT on a hard disk system, first make an
- FPLOT directory. Then copy the files on the FPLOT
- distribution disk to this directory. If you need help in
- doing this, see the FPLOT documentation and your DOS manual.
-
- 2) Then run FPLOTSET and answer the questions to set up FPLOT
- for your hardware configuration.
-
- B) Floppy Disk System
-
- 1) On a floppy disk system, copy the files on the FPLOT
- distribution disk to a working floppy disk. If you need help
- in doing this, see the FPLOT documentation and your DOS
- manual.
-
- 2) Then run FPLOTSET and answer the questions to set up FPLOT
- for your hardware configuration.
-
- HP THINKJET SUPPORT
-
- The HP ThinkJet has been added to FPLOT's list of supported
- printers. In order to work properly with FPLOT, the ThinkJet
- must be in Epson compatible mode, called alternate mode by
- HP. A choice for the HP ThinkJet has been included in
- FPLOTSET. Because the ThinkJet has a carriage smaller than
- the standard 8", it plots at a scale of 5/6. The resolution
- in draft quality is 96x96 dpi, in high resolution it is
- 96x192 dpi.
-
- CHARACTER SETS
-
- FPLOT comes with the same five character sets that are
- available on the HP7470A plotter. These are designated sets
- 0 - 4. Set 0 is the standard ASCII character set. Sets 1 -
- 4 have most of the same characters as set 0, but some of the
- special symbols are different. The plot file SETN.PLT is a
- table that shows the differences that exist between these
- character sets. Note that some of the accents and underlines
- are printed with an automatic backspace.
-
- DEMO FILES
-
- Included on the FPLOT distribution diskette is a subdirectory
- named DEMO which has a sample plot file, DEMO.PLT, and the
- BASIC program that created it, DEMO.BAS. DEMO.PLT can be
- used to make sure that FPLOT is working properly on your
- system. DEMO.BAS is an example of how one might use BASIC to
- produce plot files that can be plotted with FPLOT.
-
- COMPATIBLE PRINTERS
-
- The following is a list of printers that should operate
- with FPLOT. The list is not complete. The accuracy of
- the list depends in part on claims made by the
- manufacturers of the printers, and cannot be guaranteed
- by Fplot Corporation.
-
- LASER PRINTERS
-
- The following laser printers can be used with FPLOT
- under HP LaserJet emulation. Some of these printers may
- require the use of an add on cartridge for LaserJet
- emulation.
