1.      Overview

        This disk contains all components of the drivers
        POWERdraft for AutoCAD R12/Win and POWERdraft for AutoCAD LT.

	Complete documentation can be found in the file LANG_EN.HLP,
	which can be opened in the Windows file manager.
	This help may contain more recent information than the
	printed documentation.

**********************************************************************

2.      Directory Contents

	The root directory contains the following files:

	README.TXT	this file
	LIESMICH.TXT	German version of this file
	LANG_EN.HLP	Windows help files in English and German
	LANG_DE.HLP
	SETUP.EXE	Installation program for Windows
	(all others)	files that will be installed

**********************************************************************

3.      Installation

        * Windows 3.1x:

        Under Windows 3.1x the Microsoft Win32s system is needed for
        POWERdraft to run. If Win32s is not installed on your Computer,
        you must install it before installing POWERdraft.

        We recommend Win32s version 1.25.142 or newer. If you use an
        older version, it may be possible that POWERdraft won't run
        stable or won't run at all.

        If you don't know, whether you have already installed a proper
        version of Win32s, you may simply start POWERdraft SETUP.EXE.
        If Setup finds no Win32s or an old version, it will tell you
        and nothing will be installed.

        You can retrieve an installable Win32s from the directory
        ELSAWARE\WIN32S on the ELSA WINNERWARE CD version E-96.

        * Windows 95:

        Please note, that Windows 95 is not supported by AutoCAD R12 or
        AutoCAD LT Release 1. AutoCAD LT Release 2 supports Windows 95.

        * Windows 3.1x / Windows 95:

        Start the program SETUP.EXE under Windows 3.1x or Windows 95.
        You can use the menu item File/Run in the Program Managers
	or double click SETUP.EXE in the file manager.

4.      Notes

	For a complete description of the driver configuration please
	see the help file as above.

5.      Release Notes

        * Support of AutoCAD LT Release 2 was added.
        * Wrong colors in renderings have been fixed.

        Changes from Version 1.04 to Version 1.05

        * The driver now supports AutoCAD LT Release 2 under Windows 95.
        * Plot-Preview has been improved.
        * Several crosshair problems are fixed.
        * Installation/update of POWERdraft and Win32s can now be done
          independently.

        Changes from earlier releases are described in the help file.

**********************************************************************

6.      Caveats / Known Problems

        You should avoid full screen DOS boxes while POWERdraft is
        running. Windowed DOS boxes are uncritical, however.
