This is a simple little program which rotates your printed text through 90 degrees on the page* so that you can take advantage of the larger paper width, ft's particularly useful for things like spreadsheets, which can require very wide printouts to fit everything on. Rotate only prints ordinary text fries, it doesn't actually modify the printer control software. This means that you can't just use the ordinary “print” command in your application program, you have to output the text to a text file first* then use Rotate to print that fife out. Therefore if your spreadsheet doesn't have an “output to disc" function, you won't be able to use Rotate, Because the PCW printer wasn't designed to print rotated text, Rotate can't print in the same text style as it normally produces. Instead there are a choice of four other fonts, none of which look entirely natural. There are a fair number of functions to deal with, including setting the page dimensions and text font, so all in all printing rotated text is a little more involved than it ought to be. However, the program is controlled by simple menus and has quite a good manual. It's a specialist application, and unless you have been cursing your narrow paper in the past you won't miss much. 8000PLUS ★ AMSTRAD CPC ★ DOWNLOAD ★ |

Le premier de la gamme fut le CPC 464 en 1984, équipé d'un lecteur de cassettes intégré il se plaçait en concurrent du Commodore C64 beaucoup plus compliqué à utiliser et plus cher. Ce fut un réel succès et sorti cette même années le CPC 664 équipé d'un lecteur de disquettes trois pouces intégré. Sa vie fut de courte durée puisqu'en 1985 il fut remplacé par le CPC 6128 qui était plus compact, plus soigné et surtout qui avait 128Ko de RAM au lieu de 64Ko. |
