SignBank 8.5 Dictionaries and Documents

[K.J. Boal]

I'd like to help test it!  Looking forward to having the programs separate . . . I won't have a problem downloading SignBank, though I just realized I will have to do it again since I've got a new hard drive.  Anyway, I'd be happy to help!

> 1. SignBank Dictionary Database

> 
> 2. SignBank Document Maker

> BOTH programs will be standalone, and will not require the purchase  
> of any other software. They will both be in FileMaker 8.5 and 9.0,  
> but there will also be a Runtime that will be free. And although they  
> work similarly, they will actually be completely independent of each  
> other.

> BOTH will be coordinated with SignPuddle so that data can be imported

> It means you will have to download a very large file on the web  
> (SignBank 8.5), to use it on your hard drive, and then I can teach  
> you step by step how to print a document in different formats with  
> the current Document Maker...and then your feedback will help me tell  
> Todd new features that we need for the future standalone version...
> 
> Anyone interested in testing Document Maker with me on the List?
> 
> I will wait for replies and prepare lessons while I am waiting!
