Problem

Solutions: We are proud to announce the release of WordPerfect 6.0c for DOS! This product actually began its first shipment February 1, 1996.

This new interim for our WP60 for DOS product includes several new enhancements as mentioned in selected portions of the press release below:

"The WordPerfect 6.0c interim release addresses some of the most common user requests such as enhanced integration with Novell's document management software SoftSolutions 4.0a, fax dial-out instructions, greater file conversion capabilities, and more macro system variables. By addressing these requests, WordPerfect for DOS is now faster and uses less RAM. Graphic image display can also be turned off for even quicker screen redraw."

WordPerfect 6.0c Enhancements

- Enhanced SoftSolutions 4.0a integration - Working with SoftSolutions is faster in 6.0c because communication with SoftSolutions is now handled through executable commands in WP.exe. By eliminating the macros, WordPerfect 6.0c frees up an additional 25-30K of conventional memory, and users no longer have to wait for the large macro to execute. SoftSolutions also now uses standard WordPerfect dialog boxes so WordPerfect users will feel more comfortable.

- Fax dial-out instructions - Users can set up eight different Dial-out instruction entries to automatically add prefixes and suffixes to phone numbers in the fax phone book. For example, the Dial-out Instruction entry can automatically add the prefix "9" to get an external line from with an office phone network.

- Greater File Conversion Capabilities - The same file conversion
capabilities in WordPerfect 6.1 for Windows are now available in
WordPerfect 6.0 DOS, including a conversion for MS Word 6.0 for
Windows files.

- Printed Pages System Variables - The printed pages system variables
allow a user to determine the number of actual pages printed in the last print job, as well as the total number of pages printed during a word processing session. This feature is especially valuable to large accounts, which need to bill their customers based on the number of pages printed.

- Memory/Speed - WordPerfect 6.0c frees up additional conventional
memory, increasing overall program speed.

- Graphic Image Display - Once a graphic image is in a document, the
graphic display of that image can be turned off. This saves time as graphics are moved around because the screen does not redraw after every change.

- PIN - WordPerfect 6.0c provides a place in the WordPerfect Information screen for customers to store their Personal Identification Number (PIN). After registering their product with Novell, a customer uses the PIN to receive 180 days of toll-free, complementary Classic Service.

- Other Enhancements - A number of other enhancements have been made
in WordPerfect 6.0c that greatly increase the program's usability, as well as improve document and graphic file conversions.

Current users of WordPerfect 6.0 for DOS can upgrade to 6.0c for cost of disks. To Order call the sales department at 1-800-772-6735.
