README FILE: PrintChef 3 for Windows.

1. DESCRIPTION AND FUNCTION:
   PrintChef works with Windows 95, 98, Me, NT4, 2000.
   PrintChef saves paper, time, and money by turning your prints into 
   booklets, N-ups, impositions, bar codes, and adding watermarks, 
   graphics, and images.

   PrintChef is a printer driver, that captures the pages from ANY
   application, and then executes rules (called Print Recipes) to 
   change the page order, orientation, size, and layout, while adding
   text, graphics, images, and other effects to create the final
   printed paper on ANY target printer. 

   PrintChef can collect, change, or control prints to your design.
   Other examples of its power are: letterheads, HP Print-to-Mail, 
   electronic postage, electronic signatures, control of page creep, 
   invoices, mailers, business cards, label sheets, and much, much more. 
   
   PrintChef comes with the power to create standard booklets, 
   miniatures (2, 3, 4, 6, 9, and 16-up configurations), reversed 
   prints, range prints, front-to-back, and flipped prints; and to
   control toner level. Design your own print recipes to virtually 
   control every aspect of the printing process. 

   A print recipe is a collection of rules, layers, and references
   to plug-ins that control any print. When combined with PrintChef's
   open architecture plug-ins, there is virtually no limit to what
   a recipe can do. 

   PrintChef can also gather multiple prints into a single run, even
   from different documents, different page sizes, and different 
   applications.

2. INSTALLATION:
   To install PrintChef 3, simply double-click the 
   "PrintChef Installer.exe" program, you will have to restart
   your computer at the end of the installation.

3. STATUS:
   Shareware. PrintChef will add an "unregistered user" mark to 
   prints after 10 days; and limits prints to 8 pages; otherwise
