Win*Star Publisher's Assistant

 

Publisher's Assistant serves as a reliable tool for saving Win*Star chart wheels in a variety of graphic file formats. Wheels can be easily re-sized for cut & paste or file insertion using your favorite word processor or publishing program. Publisher's Assistant can be operated without Win*Star. Either way, it accesses your Current Charts files, and their associated chart forms.

Publisher's Assistant consists of a simple menu which displays the highlighted chart wheel in its standard size. You type in the new desired size for an extisting wheel and it re-sizes the wheel accordingly. For example, maybe you want to include a chart wheel in an article you're writing. A full-sized 8"x 8" wheel (one that would fill an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of paper) would be way too large, so perhaps you'd like one half as large. Just type 4" in the menu's "width" field, click the "adjust to width" feature, and the wheel will automatically reduce to a 4" square wheel -- perfect for insertion on a magazine page. See for yourself: Click here to see a 5"x5" wheel (a 7k .gif) sized down from the original wheel which was over 8" square.
Wheel Options are included for saving the Win*Star chart wheels in 18 different graphic formats, with shortcut buttons for .BMP and .Meta(file) formats. Entire chart wheels can also be placed on your clipboard for instant copy & paste transfer. It couldn't be easier!
