Question:
Does PalDRAW run on Windows CE devices? |
Answer:
No. PalDRAW is just
designed to work on HP100LX and HP200LX palmtop machines,
running on DOS mode.
You can also run PalDRAW
on your desktop PC, using the Desktop PC Compatibility Kit. Eventually, other palmtops or
handheld devices could run PalDRAW, always if they
support DOS, and provides EGA or VGA screen
compatibility.
Question:
Is there a way to print out the drawings or
must I use the Print Screen function? |
Answer:
PalDRAW does not support
any printing capabilities of the Palmtop. This is because
the short storage memory requirements supported by the
application.
If you have not a very big
restriction of disk space in your palmtop, there is a
number of techniques you can use to print out PalDRAW
drawing files:
- In your Palmtop:
Use some DOS utility application which allows you
to print out BMP bitmap files, as for instance
Alchemy, then use it to print a BMP file exported
from PalDRAW.
- In your Palmtop:
If you prefer to print vectorial files, export
the drawing as a DXF using DRW2DXF.EXE utility,
then use some CAD utility application able to
print DXF files from DOS.
- In your PC:
Export your drawing as BMP or DXF, then print
with your favorite software, from DOS or Windows.
Question:
PalDRAW does not run when I try PD.EXE in my
palmtop. What is wrong? |
Answer:
There are several
things you could check:
- Have you decompressed
the PD.ZIP file with the command "PKUNZIP -d
PD.ZIP" to restore the directory structure,
as the user manual indicates?
- Have you copied all
the files to the palmtop directory, with the
directory structure? Most of users which found
problems first time running PalDRAW are those which
forget to copy some file from the desktop PC to
the palmtop. Try to reinstall the package.
- Do you have at least
300KB of free RAM? Go to the user's manual to get
more information about the minimum PalDRAW
requirements.
Question:
What I get when I register PalDRAW? |
Answer:
First of all, you support our work, which allow us to improve the
application to give you more features.
In the application, you
will find the next improvements:
- The start screen
which shows Shareware information and waits
several seconds until you press the 'Y' key, is
removed.
- The bitmap BMP file
export removes the 'UNREGISTERED COPY OF
PALDRAW" messages.
- You get three
registration codes, for the current release and
for the next two. Some of these versions are only
available for registered users.
- You get unlimited
support by e-mail.
