D1002 - How do I print my file to copyright it? by - Joseph Ganci Just use Authorware's
print option from the File pulldown menu to print the whole file, then send
them the first 25 and last 25. Nobody is really going to check it at the copyright
office. It is on file only so that if there is a challenge later, you can
show them the source code, print it out again, and show that the pages are
identical. Of course, if you give your source code to anyone else, they can
show the same thing, so keep it close to your vest!
One aside - it's always
been my feeling that the print utility in Authorware has been one of the most
complete and elegant print outs of any development package I've ever used.
Funny thing is, when I program in a command language like C, a printout can
be a useful thing for debugging. I've never found the printouts in Authorware
to be all that needed since it's easier to debug right inside Authorware,
so as elegant as the printouts are in Authorware, I never use them!
Of course, now we know
that they're useful for copyrighting a software application! |
