Problems resolved by PrintChef  3.0.0.211


(May 25, 2001)

Fixed an installation problem with Windows 95
Tech ID: 010517001
Status: Fixed
Problem: When installing on Windows 95, the installer was failing. This was a result of the installer assuming certain resources would be available...and they were not on a 95 system.

Multiple copies on 2000 resets to 1
Tech ID: 010125001

Problem: When printing multiple copies, the copy count is being reset to 1 during PrintChef operations.

Tech ID: 030190001
Status: New Feature
Problem: The enhanced PrintChef is now ready for the advanced plug-in architecture.

Print-to-Mail on Windows 2000 causes shifted prints
Tech ID: 010523001
Status: New driver required
Problem: When printing with Stamps.com letter on legal, PrintChef gets confused on the 2K system and sets the printed output based on letter, not on legal.
Workaround: This turns out to be a problem with the HP 4050 Windows 2000 printer driver. To solve this problem on the 2K system, simply download the latest driver for the 4050 from HP or get the driver directly from MindGate's web site at ftp://ftp.mindgate.com/p2m/HP4050PTMDriver.exe and install the driver over the current one.

Full Unicode Compliance and Language Modules
Tech ID: 020170002
Status: Fixed
Problem: When installing on international systems, PrintChef was not active for the complete unicode interface. This change will allow PrintChef to hot-swap to other languages as they become available.

Enhanced Data Doorway
Tech ID: 030010001
Status: New Feature
Problem: Data Doorway now supports Door Panels which allow the extracted text to be partitioned into columns of data. This is very handy when the granularity of the extraction needs to be higher.

Enhanced Page Manager into Page Designer
Tech ID: 030190001
Status: New Feature
Problem: The enhanced Page Manager can now do page size designs. This allows you to either choose from a suite of standard page designs, like Windows, Avery sheet, Avery label, etc., or to design your own.

Multiple Copies on NT4/2000
