WinVoice Lite v2.2(discontinued, upgrade path is to Pro or Net)
WinVoice Pro v3.3.14(Formerly known as "Single User")
WinVoice Net v3.10
Special note for NET customers and IE7
IE7 has created new security features to help identify to customers that they are running a program
that is not located on their computer. We're unsure as to why they didn't
include a "Do not show me this message again" prompt like most of their
other screens. This can create an annoyance for NET customers who start
up WinVoice NET remotely every day. To fix this prompting, click Start->Control Panel->Internet Options
Then go to the Security tab. Click Trusted Sites. Click the Sites button.
Remove the checkbox for "Require server verification". Type in
file://servername in for "Add this website to the zone"(for example,
we have a server named fileserver2, our drive share is the W: drive
mapped to \\fileserver2\winvoice, in our case, we type in file://fileserver2).
Click Add. Then click Close. Click Custom Level, scroll
down to Miscellaneous, and where it says "Launching applications and
unsafe files", change from Prompt to Enable. Click OK, then OK again
to save the settings. You will no longer be prompted for launching
programs(such as WinVoice) off any shared drive on the listed server.
COD Increase 03-21-07
UPS has increased their COD charges, so we've had to increase our COD charge to $10.
WinVoice Online Released 08-01-06
Now accepting orders for WinVoice Online!
WinVoice Online Beta Testing 05-31-06
We've finally completed the alpha testing on our new software package. The
first wave of beta testers started June '06 and look out soon for the
official release date and pricing information.
Replacement CD Charge 03-08-05
As of 03-08-2005, there will be a $1 charge for replacement/subversion upgrade CD's.
Due to some customers abusing the free replacement CD's we've been forced
to charge to recover the cost of the CD, packaging, and shipping. Emailing
replacement/subversion upgrades is still free.
HP PCS Printers 01-29-04
It is not recommended to attempt to use one of HP's PCS line all-in-one
printers with WinVoice. So far, we have had two customers call to indicate
that they are incompatible with WinVoice and one customer indicated that
attempting to install the drivers under windows Me caused her computer to
crash to the point of requring a reformat.
TPF Command Summary 10-10-03
Under the Online Manuals section, you may now view a complete list of all the
TPF commands supported by Net 3.9.09.
Net v3.8 Beta Test 06-12-03
We're testing out an exciting new feature for our Net software. With the v3.8
release Net will have a new "MaxSize" option. WinVoice was designed with 640x480
mode to make sure that it is compatible with the oldest possible machine. But with
the advant of Windows XP the minimum screen resolution is now 800x600. Rather than
loose our compatibility with older computers by redesigning our screens to take
advantage of this new minimum, we've simply given WinVoice the ability to size its
fonts up to make reading all the screens in WinVoice as easy as possible. Click
here to see an example of WinVoice without MaxSize on a
computer running 1280x1024 resolution, then click here to
see the new MaxSize option in place. Any current Net customer may receive this
early beta by simply calling us at 800-665-0091.
COD Increase 01-13-03
Due to the increase of the COD charge by UPS, as of Jan 13, 2003, our COD
charge will change from $8 to $9.
Windows v3.x Support 09-18-02
Please note that even though our software should work correctly on windows v3.x, we are unable to
provide support for this operating system. We have not had a copy of windows 3.x on-site for
many years now and most of our support technitions have long since forgotten how to use
this older operating system. We appologize for any inconvience this may cause. For further details
on Microsoft's policy on Windows v3.x, please visit this link http://www.microsoft.com/windows/lifecycle.mspx
Brainwash Enhancement 09-05-02
If you are using the basic Junior software and have accumulated a large number
of charges over the years, you can quickly trim your charge list with the new
enhancement to Brainwash. By right clicking:
here for basic Junior or Trial earlier than 9/5/02 or here for Junior Plus I or here for Junior Plus II or here for Junior Plus III
and left clicking on "Save to Disk". Then specifying the C:\JUNIOR\BRAINWASH folder,
your brainwash program will be enhanced by allowing you to hold down the ctrl key and
left click on multiple items in Brainwash at once for deleting purposes.
Price Increase Notice 06-25-02
We've tried to keep our prices as low as humanly possible over the years(our last
rate increase on paper was back in 1996), but as the years have gone by we've absorbed
the rising cost of paper. Effective June 25, 2002, we'll be forced to raise our ream
price of paper from $20 to $22 and our case(5 reams) size price from $90 to $100, if you
order in quanities of 5 cases or more, the price is $450(aka $90/case). We
regret having to raise our rates, but we think you'll find that we're still the lowest
cost in the industry. To summarize the new paper pricing scheme: 1 ream(500sheets)=$22/ream($0.044/sheet), 5 reams(2,500 sheets)=$100($20/ream or $0.04/sheet), 25 reams(12,500 sheets)=$450($90/case or $18/ream or $0.036/sheet).
WinVoice Net v3.7
The final version of WinVoice Net v3.7 was shipped on friday May 10, 2002 to all
current Net multi-node customers. With the Net v3.7, we've also changed lowered
the cost of upgrading from Pro to Net. With the costs of computers being
at their all time lows, this will make the transition to Net that much easier.
The Net v3.7 revision contains these revisions to the Net v3.5.

Tractor(Dot Matrix) Paper
Over the years we've offered our blue preforated paper in both tractor feed(for
dot matrix printers) and cut sheet(ink jet, bubble jet, laser printers) varieties. Due
to the rock bottom prices of ink jet printers our demand for tractor feed paper
has steadily dwindled over the years. We therefore have stopped reordering tractor feed paper
and as of 4-22-2002, the last of our tractor feed invoice paper has been completely
sold out and is no longer available. We still have several cases of tractor feed
statement paper available, but we are unsure as to how long that will last. To help
remove this paper from our inventory, we are offering the tractor feed statement
paper at a discount of $80(plus shipping) for a 2,500 sheet case.
New FAQ Section
Due to requests from our customers, we've created a new section called Frequently Asked Questions.
We're now having our tech support represenatives edit this file everytime they get a support call to address
most questions that they are faced with. This gives a great way for you to see if
someone else has already asked what your wanting to ask.
Pro 3.3 PDF Online
The manual for the Pro v3.3 is now available as a PDF download in the manuals section. Due to an oversight
it was not posted online even though the 3.3 has been available for quite some time now.
Software Special Shipping
Starting June 25th 2001, a new shipping class has been created. Overnight software. This is for software
only sales(Junior Install, Junior Upgrade, Plus I, Plus II, Plus III, Pro Install, Pro Upgrade, Net Install, Net Upgrade sales only).
Only $8 dollars for next business day delivery! Note, this can not be combined with paper sales or COD sales(use regular shipping charts)
2nd Day/Overnight Price Increase
Due to a jump in prices of 2nd day and overnight shipments. Effective Jan 19th, 2001,
2nd day shipping rates will be Base 12, Add a box 9, Add a case 35. Overnight
will be 23 base, 12 a box, 45 a case. We regret the price change, but we could
only absorb the shipping loss we where experiencing on these types of
shipments for so long. For note, this is the first time since Dec 99 that anything
on the price scheme has changed.
Note from Tech Support
It has been brought to our attention that Pro/Net restoration/design/metals configuration dialog
allows the user to type names exceeding the 30 character field length. Doing
so causes the name to "disappear". Prevention is easy! Always truncate
names that exceed 30 characters, to 30 characters or less. Sorry for the oversite, a permanant fix is in the works.
