Copyright (c) 1992 by Tom Murrell

This text file briefly describes hardware and software requirements to
run this program.  Please use Windows Write to view the Readme.wri file
on this disk for additional information and program instructions.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome to Standard Form 171 for Windows.  This program was written 
specifically for use with Windows 3.1 and the runtime version 1.53 
of Toolbook.

Required Hardware

COMPUTER
We recommend that users of this program have at least a 386 machine 
with 4 megabytes of memory.  The program will run on a 286 computer 
with at least 3 megabytes of extended memory, but it will run much faster 
with additional memory.  The program may not load on machines 
with less than 2 megabytes of memory. If you don't have 4 megabytes of 
memory, please close all other Windows applications prior to running 
SF 171 for Windows.

If you have a video card capable of Super VGA resolution, we recommend 
running the program in the 16 color mode unless you have an accelerated 
Windows video system. The program may be run in the 256 color mode, but 
it will run notably slower.

PRINTERS
This release of the SF 171 program has been tested for use on Hewlett 
Packard LaserJet Series II, III and Postscript printers.  The program 
has not been tested on any other printer.  The forms are very complex 
and contain numerous fonts, lines, and other graphic objects.  As such, 
it takes a while for the forms to print.  Print times can range from 5 
to 20 minutes depending upon the printer.  Some printers are not capable 
of printing the entire form, because they do not have enough memory to 
process all the fonts and a full page graphic image at 300 dots per inch.  
If your printer will not print the form and the data, you have the option 
of printing just the data on a preprinted form.   Because the HP Laserjet 
Series II printers are not capable of printing white text on a black 
background the user must select "Set Title Boxes to Gray" found in the 
View menu to print on an HP Laserjet Series II.  If you do not make this 
change, the white text in the title boxes (i.e. GENERAL INFORMATION or 
AVAILABILITY on page 1 of the form) will not print; you will only get 
black boxes with no text.  NOTE:  There may problems printing the form 
and the data with Series II printers equipped with only 512k of printer 
memory.  

Please check the form over carefully before submitting it for a job.
