COPYQM Version 3.18. October, 1994
CopyQM is a diskette duplicating program
that, since its introduction in 1987,
has set the standard for PC duplication
software. This program is by far
Sydex's most popular, though we do offer
a complete line of programs related to
diskette duplication and conversion.
Call us if you have a special need.

CopyQM reads a master diskette and
formats, writes and verifies duplicates
of the master diskette. Copying can be
performed on up to six drives in a
single session; copies are written on
only one drive at a time. "No Hands"
operation is featured--after you've
started things, you needn't touch the
keyboard again; just insert diskettes in
drives as needed.

In addition to the basic operating mode,
CopyQM features the following:

* Conversion between different formats.
Unlike competing products which just
copy the same format to different
drives, CopyQM actually rebuilds the
diskette format to match the drive. It's
possible to convert from a 360K format
to a 1.44M format. And you wind up with
1.44M worth of diskette space.

* Support of image files. An image file
created by CopyQM is a complete
description of the information on a
diskette. You can enter a comment to be
included (registered version). The image
file is checksummed with a 32-bit CRC.

* Copies Mac HD and DOS diskettes with
no special processing. Will copy most
PC-readable diskettes regardless of
format with the "Blind" option.

* Copies Microsoft DMF 1.68MB diskettes.

* "SMART" mode will format diskettes
only when needed.

* Faster copying by copying only active
data--the empty area on a partially-
filled diskette is not copied.

* Optional "Plus version" includes
serial numbering facility, insertion of
copy-protection information, diskette
maintenance utility, self-extracting
image files and more.

* Menu or command-line interface with
complete on-line help.

* Choice of direct hardware access or
use of BIOS routines.

CopyQM is a shareware product by Sydex,
Inc. P.O. Box 5700, Eugene, OR 97405,
