<br>well for you too...<br><br>Happy September!<br><br>I have really enjoyed August here. We had guests...my cousins from<br>Maine...and wonderful friends dropping by...<br><br>Yesterday I worked with Todd Duell, on SignBank, and we have decided
<br>that in the next few months we will separate SignBank into two<br>separate programs, which will be easier for people to use and<br>understand.<br><br>1. SignBank Dictionary Database<br>for printing multi-lingual SignWriting dictionaries
<br>(provides multiple print formats for publishing dictionaries in all<br>sizes)<br><br>2. SignBank Document Maker<br>for printing multi-lingual SignWriting documents<br>(provides multiple print formats for publishing literature in all sizes)
<br><br>BOTH programs will be standalone, and will not require the purchase<br>of any other software. They will both be in FileMaker 8.5 and 9.0,<br>but there will also be a Runtime that will be free. And although they<br>
work similarly, they will actually be completely independent of each<br>other.<br><br>BOTH will be coordinated with SignPuddle so that data can be imported<br>or copied from SignPuddle 1.5.<br><br>I only wish the two programs were separate right now! They are still
<br>one program, and it will take Todd a couple of full days work<br>programming to make the two standalone programs...and I need to raise<br>the funds for that project, but it will happen...I am determined!<br><br>MEANWHILE....I am asking for your help. I need to test Document Maker
<br>the way it is right now, with some users, and I am asking if we can<br>test it with all of you on the SignWriting List? Are there a few of<br>you, who would like to learn to take a document already created in<br>SignText, and learn how to print it as a document in Document Maker?
<br>It means you will have to download a very large file on the web<br>(SignBank 8.5), to use it on your hard drive, and then I can teach<br>you step by step how to print a document in different formats with<br>the current Document Maker...and then your feedback will help me tell
<br>Todd new features that we need for the future standalone version...<br><br>Anyone interested in testing Document Maker with me on the List?<br><br>I will wait for replies and prepare lessons while I am waiting!<br><br>
Many thanks in advance -<br><br>Val ;-)<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>____________________________________________<br><br>SW-L SignWriting List<br><br>Post Message<br><a href="mailto:SW-L@majordomo.valenciacc.edu">
