VoxFonts Development Kit & Programming Sample
                                Version  3.00


Contents:

    Our VoxFonts Software Development Kit (SDK) lets you add text-to-
    speech capabilities to your MS Windows and MS DOS applications. 

    The VXFSDK.ZIP file contains sample programs that use the VoxFonts
    conversion libraries and DLLs. These programs were created using 
    Visual Basic and Microsoft C version 8.0, and demonstrates usage 
    under both Windows and DOS. The sample programs performs a simple
    text-to-speech conversion.

    The MSCTst directory contains a sample MS Windows and DOS program,
    "FntTst.c". To build both the Windows and DOS versions, run the 
    batch file "MakeMe.bat". The associated makefile assumes that 
    Microsoft C 8.0 tools are installed and accessible.

    The VxFLib directory contains the "C" header and library files for
    various conversion. The libraries are named PPPMMM.Lib to 
    designate the formats. PPP = DLG for Dialogic. MMM = MME for Microsoft
    Medium memory model with floating point emulator, MMM = MLE for
    Microsoft Large memory model with floating point emulator, and MWE
    for Microsoft Windows model with floating point emulator.

    The MVBTst directory contains a sample MS Windows Visual Basic 
    project, "FntTst.Mak". 

    The ROOT directory contains the font libraries and DLLs necessary for 
    the MS DOS and MS Windows 3.1 executable versions.

    The demo versions of these programs (*.exe, *.dll) are limited to 100
    words of text per execution.

To Run:
    1)  Unzip the file VXFSDK.ZIP to extract each floppy image:
        PKUNZIP VXFSDK.ZIP
    2)  Unzip the disk images to floppy using the create directory option: 
        PKUNZIP -d VXF001.ZIP a:
        PKUNZIP -d VXF002.ZIP a:
    3)  Insert the first floppy and change to the drive.
    4)  Run the "Install.Exe" installation program.
        Three subdirectories will be created - MSCTST, MVBTST and VXFLIB.
    2)  Run the sample programs MLETst.Exe (DOS - Microsoft Large Emulator)
        and MWETst.Exe (Windows - Microsoft Windows Emulator)    

To Build Microsoft C FntTst.c:

    1)  Unzip the file VXFSDK.ZIP as described above.
    2)  Make sure the Microsoft C 8.0 tools are installed and accessible.
    3)  Run the batch file MakeMe.bat to build both MS Windows and
        MS DOS versions of the sample program.

To Build Microsoft Visual Basic FntTst.Mak:

    1)  Unzip the file VXFSDK.ZIP as described above.
    2)  Make sure Microsoft Visual Basic 3.0 or above is installed and
        accessible.
    3)  Use File... Open Project to open "MVBTst\FntTst.Mak".
