"POP-LABEL" (aka "PL") is a small, fast, "Pop-Up Window" program for
creating and printing LABELS.

It is ideal for those times when you need just a couple of simple
labels for floppy disks, report covers, or when you need to quickly
type up a mailing label, or for just about any other reason.

All that you need to do is to place the TWO files "PL.EXE" & "REG.DAT"
somewhere in your "PATH", and from then on, anytime you need a label
just enter "PL". The "Pop-Label Window" will quickly appear on the
Lower Part of your screen, ready to receive your input. It sure beats
reaching for your old trusty (rusty) typewriter.

We have tried to keep "PL" small and simple. As such, it's a lot
faster to use than most of the BIG Label programs which do just about
everything but lick postage stamps for you. We have found that "those"
kind of programs are usually a "pain" to use when you only want to
print ONE simple label (choose a graphic, set for one, two or three
across printing, select a type style, set your "Printer Escape Codes",
print alignment test labels, and so on..., for menu after menu).

With "Pop-Label", you choose a print size, type the label, say how
many copies you want and where to set the Left Margin, and that's it!
Couldn't be easier.

A new feature (Version 1.8 and newer) requested by many Users is the
ability to "Save" & "Load" assorted labels.

To LOAD a previously saved label, just press a ^L (Control + L). This
is done by holding your "CTRL" key down, and then pressing the "L" key.
Then just enter the "Name" of your label (include PATH if not in your
default directory) and the label will be loaded and displayed for editing
or printing.

To SAVE a label, just enter a normal DOS file name for your label in the
space provided when you exit (F-10 Key) from "Pop-Label". If you wish to
save all your labels in one "\LABELS" sub-directory, then add the PATH to
the label's file name (eg: "C:\LABELS\RET-ADDR.LAB"). Otherwise, all labels
will be saved in your default drive and directory.

When I'm very short on time, I print the address label(s) on regular
computer paper (not on a gummed label). I then cut the address to
label size and use 2" wide transparent tape to affix it to an envelope
or package. It saves the time and trouble of removing the paper from
the printer, installing a roll of labels, and then putting the paper
back in again when I'm finished. Another benefit..., it makes the
printed address a little more water-proof and smear resistant.

Each of the five "Input Fields" will vary in length from 35 to 70
characters dependent upon which "Print Size" you select. But all of
the selections were designed with 3.5 Inch wide labels in mind.

In any given amount of space, more "Compressed" characters will fit
than the larger 10 Pitch (Pica) characters. As a result, while only
"35" 10 Pitch characters will fit across a 3.5 inch label, it will
take "70" characters of the much smaller "Compressed 12 Pitch Elite"
(converts into 20 pitch) to fill the same 3.5 inch space.


Because of this, we have put "measured scales" (in inches) at the top
of the Pop-Label screen display.

10cpi = 10 Pitch Pica (10 Characters Per Inch)
12cpi = 12 Pitch Elite (12 Characters Per Inch)
17cpi = 17 Pitch "Compressed Pica" (17 Characters Per Inch)
20cpi = 20 Pitch "Compressed Elite" (20 Characters Per Inch)

The purpose of those scales is to help you keep your typed entries from
extending beyond the end of various width labels.

What ever pitch you set your printer to, use the corresponding "scale" in
"Pop-Label" to keep an eye on the width of your typed line. How far across
the scale your typed line should extend would depend upon the width of the
label you are using.

For special applications, you can "bypass" the program's automatic setting
of the print size by pressing the "F5 Key". Once this key is pressed, you
can then set your printer "Manually" to ANY pitch setting you wish to use.


Most printers have control buttons, switches or levers for this purpose.
Others can be set by using any of the scores of "Printer Utility" programs
available through most Shareware Dealers.

But once you activate "Manual Printer Control", you are on your own as far
as "Characters Per Inch", "Lines Too Long" and "other" pitfalls that can
happen if you are not a little careful about "What & Where" you put on the
printed line.

This feature also allows this program to be used with more brands and
styles of printers (like those that are NOT very IBM/Epson compatible).

Pop-Label is also useful for other things, like making up a quick "Memo"
or "Note" for someone. Choose selection "D" for a 70 character wide line.
Then press the "F5 Key", and set your printer to 10 Pitch Pica print. This
will let you type up to 5 lines of 70 larger size characters. It's a LOT
faster than using your Word Processor, naming and opening a file, typing
the message, printing it, and then erasing the file (and any backup) when
you are finished. No muss - no fuss.
