BORDER SHAPES

Border shapes are limited to horizontal line, vertical line,
square and circle.  However, you can use Strech to create 
rectangles and ovals.  In addition, the Shapes available from
the Format menu can be applied to lines and square borders.


COMPUTER AND PRINTER MEMORY

If only one Business Card or Gift Certificate prints in the 
middle of the page, either you do not have enough memory to
create the entire image for printing or the printer driver 
cannot support 64K bitmap images.  The printer manufacturer
may have an updated driver.

The operation of this program will be affected by the amount 
of RAM memory available to Windows.  If graphics are slow to 
appear on the screen, it is probably because the entire graphic 
is too large to fit in RAM at one time.  In such a case, Windows 
may swap some of the information in memory to your hard disk as 
the image is being drawn.  This will slow the graphics drawing
process considerably.

If your machine does not have enough memory to display a graphic
image on the screen, a solid black rectangle may appear to
indicate the size and position of the image.  The box may be
moved and sized, and double-clicking on the rectangle will
produce the dialog box for the image.  In most cases, the image
will print normally.

If the printed output from Announcements is not what you expect,
you may have insufficient printer memory to produce the entire
image.  Opening the Print Options dialog box and reducing the
printer resolution will usually solve this problem.


DIMENSIONS FOR POSTERS AND BANNERS

To accommodate multiple page Posters and multiple row Banners, 
height and width dimensions are not automatically set when
changing the paper size selection.  They will remain at the 
default dimensions until you change them.


EMBEDDING GRAPHICS

The Embed Graphics Option and Preference does not embed fonts as
stated in the User's Guide.  Only graphic objects (pictures and 
borders) are embedded.  If the fonts originally used are not 
available on the current system a default font will be selected 
when the document is opened.
