- =========================== PrintImage 1.0 ===========================
- ======================================================================
- A program to print IFF-ILBM images, written by Olaf 'Olsen' Barthel of
- MXM. Copyright, © 1990 by MXM. Shareware, all rights reserved. No
- guarantee of any kind is made that the program(s) described in this
- document are 100% reliable. You use this material on your own risk.
-
- ============================== Purpose ===============================
- ======================================================================
- As far as I can see there is no easy way to print IFF-ILBM images.
- You may of course load DPaint and call the 'Print' function, try any
- 'DTP' program to print it or use your favourite word processor. These
- techniques cause a lot of unnecessary overhead. Why not try to put a
- simple graphic dump routine into a neat little program?
-
- =============================== Usage ================================
- ======================================================================
- 'PrintImage 1.0' requires req.library. Install it before you run it,
- or you will suddenly discover that this tool refuses to work.
- If started successfully, a small window will pop up right under the
- mouse pointer. Five gadgets are available:
-
- Load new image......... Will load any IFF-ILBM file and store it in
- memory. HAM & EHB and large overscanned
- images are handled correctly provided there is
- enough memory available to hold them.
-
- Print current image.... This button becoms available after an image
- has been loaded. As the name says this causes
- the graphic dump to start. The mode and type
- of the dump corresponds to the current
- Preferences settings.
-
- Stop printing.......... As soon as the graphic dump is in progress
- this button will abort it.
-
- Exit program........... Click this button to close the window and to
- exit the program.
