============================================== Northern AMIGA Users Group Information Section ============================================== ************* This disk, as with all PD, can be freely distributed. However, we have taken a long time to compile the Professional range and the NAUG compilations so please DO NOT change any of the files or information on the disks. The disk should remain together with this NAUG info. ************ Public Domain ------------- The Northern Amiga Users Group stock a large PD library with the best PD from the last two to three years. The range includes utilities, Assassins Games, Music utilities, Demos, Graphics, Eduction and many other sections. This disk, however, is part of the Professional range of PD. Compiled by us to bring together the best PD around in various sections.

This collection consists of 26 disks of high quality scaleable CG Fonts. To use the fonts read the following: How to use this disk: --------------------- Using the Fonts on this disk is very simple: 1. Use the CLI or a program like OPUS or SID to copy the files 2. Copy the files to your CGFont drawer on your hard disk 3. CLI COMMAND: Copy DF0:CGFONTS/ DH1:CGFONTS/ (Drawer on Hard disk) 4. Use your font updater to "update" the fonts 5. Use as normal Please note that if your CGFonts are stored in another directory, like Wordworth's Intellifont drawer, then the fonts should be copied to this drawer. Then the "update" program should be used to update the font list for the new and existing fonts in that drawer If you need any further help then contact us. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The NORTHERN AMIGA USERS GROUP ============================== The user group was formed on the 1st of January 1994 for various reasons: 1. To give Amiga users the opportunity to help for the computer. 2. To offer professional and cheap services that will benefit any Amiga owner who uses them. 3. To promote the use of the Amiga as far as possible among non-Amiga sections. The group has two forms of membership to welcome any Amiga owner. Firstly there is the free membership. We feel from experience some owners are reluctant to spend hard earned cash on a user group that is new and not yet established. Fair enough. We agree in some ways with that statement. That is why the services we offer are not only professional but the are extremely cheap, far cheaper than the same services offered in the PC sector or commercial scene (as in the case of the typesetting). This free membership means the member can buy as much PD as he/she likes, use as many services as they like and ask for help as much as they need. This is no obligation to purchase but if you ordered a couple of disks of PD when sending back the membership disk to be updated we would be more than please. However, there is no worry if you don't. We just hope that you enjoy your membership and if you have any problems that you bring them forward and make us aware as soon as possible. The PLATINUM membership is the highest membership we have. ALL members are treated equally but platinum members may be entitled to further benefits. Each month the membership disk will be sent out to platinum members with a little bit more info than the regular updated disk. Also if the group joins with a software "swap-shop" then this membership may be included in the deal. If, however, you want to update you membership disk more regularly than once a month we ask you to send it back with a stamp to cover the return postage. Not much to ask for really. ** Please note that if ANY member sends the membership disk back to be updated send a first class stamp to cover this ** Other than the regular and professional PD we offer a range of services to ALL members which is outlined below: 1. LOCAL CONSULTANCY -------------------- Based on the PC sector's commercial consultancy. We feel that the Amiga deserves some kind of help service like this so it is here for your use. It is restricted to a certain area but drop us a line and check whether your area is accessible. The idea behind this service help WITHIN the HOMES of the Amiga owners themselves. It is all well and good giving help by magazine or by computer screen but there is the practicality side of help missing. With this we can show the user how to make a disk with contents list or show them generally the basics of their computer STEP-BY-STEP within the comfort of their homes. The intention is for the user to understand how the help was completed and he/she should be able to do the same thing after we leave. We cover all types of work from software installation, Hard disk installation and software knowledge to disk compiling, workbench help and the command line interface. Give us call and discuss what you what doing and we may be able to and help you do it. Price will be VERY cheap and the latest prices and up-to-date information on this service can be found in you latest disk magazine. Time each week is LIMITED so book early to avoid a wait. 2. DTP/Typesetting ------------------ At the time of writing (10/10/93) we are unsure of the exact offering of this service but basically if you present us with a design we will compile this into a DTP format or word processed format. We will cover basic DTP and ANY kind of word processed document. It could be a CV or letter, report or essay. If you give us the details we will give you a very cheap price and compile it for you. ALL printed on a LASER printer. 3. Group Meetings ----------------- Will be local and the meetings will be outlined in the updated disk magazine. This will offer a chance for the members to meet and also for members to discuss face-to-face with NAUG "officials", buy PD or book DTP or consultancy services. 4. SWAP-SHOP ------------ Swap your old games for games which other members may be interested in swapping. 5. Members Section ------------------ Members section in the disk magazine. Sell or buy hardware/software. Write reports for other members. Letters answered etc. First Computer Centre Discount ============================== Northern Amiga Users Group and First Computer Centre in Leeds have joined together to offer members up to 5% off hardware and 7% off software.
