. REVIEW OF NEWSROOM..REVIEWED B Y: JERRY MCLAIN. VERNON, T X 76384.... NEWSROOM IS A PROGRAM FOR THE..COMMODORE 64 WHICH ENABLES PRODUCTI ON..OF A NEWSPAPER OR NEWSLETTER. IN IT S..APPLE AND IBM VERSIONS, IT HAS..ENJOY ED TOP POPULARITY, AND THE C-64..VERSION HAS BEEN LONG AWAITED AND..ONLY RECENTL Y HAS BEEN MADE..AVAILABLE... NEWSROOM COMES ON TWO PROTECTED..DISKS, ONE WITH THE MAIN PROGRAM AND..THE SECOND WITH A COLLECTION OF CLIP..ART. LOADING AND RU NNING THE MAIN..PROGRAM PRODUCES AN ICON -BASED MENU..FROM WHICH SUBPROGRAMS CAN BE..SELECTED, INCLUDING BANNER (CREATION ..OF THE TOP FRONT PAGE OF A..NEWSPAPER) , PHOTO LAB (CLIP ART CAN..BE LOADED AND /OR MODIFIED AND NEW..ILLUSTRATIONS CAN BE CREATED), COPY..DESK (WHERE ILLUSTRAT IONS AND..HEADLINES ARE COMBINED WITH TE XT TO..MAKE A PANEL), LAYOUT (PANELS ARE ..COMBINED TO COMPLETE PAGES), WIRE..SER VICE (ANY PARTS OF THE NEWSPAPER..CAN BE SENT OR RECEIVED TO ANY OTHER..COMPUTER , REGARDLESS OF TYPE, IF THE..OTHER COMP UTER USES NEWSROOM) AND..PRINTING PRESS (WHERE IT ALL COMES..TOGETHER TO CREATE THE NEWSPAPER ON..A DOT MATRIX PRINTER). THE PAPER CAN..BE LETTER OR LEGAL SIZE .. ANY PARTS OF THE NEWSPAPER,..INCLUDI NG PHOTOS, PANELS, TEXT,..HEADLINES, BAN NER AND LAYOUT CAN BE..SAVED TO A DATA D ISK THEN BROUGHT OUT..LATER TO MAKE THE FINAL PRODUCT. THE..OPERATION OF NEWSRO OM IS VERY SIMILAR..TO A MODERN NEWSPAPE R WITH..COMPUTERIZED TYPESETTING FACILIT IES... BOTH THE BANNER AND PHOTO LAB WO RK..AREAS ALLOW DRAWING OF PICTURES USIN G..A ARRAY OF BRUSH SIZES, FILL..PATTERN S, LINES, BOXES AND CIRCLES...THE TYPE F ONTS AVAILABLE ARE LARGE..AND SMALL SERI F (THAT MEANS THE..LETTERS HAVE LITTLE " FEET" ON THEM..LIKE THE 'L' YOU SEE HERE ) SANS SERIF..(FRENCH FOR "WITHOUT FEET" LIKE THIS..'H') AND A LARGE ENGLISH TYP E FACE..LIKE A LOT OF OLD NEWSPAPERS USE ...ALL THESE TOOLS CREATE ESSENTIALLY A. .HIGH RESOLUTION SCREEN (COMPLETE WITH.. A ZOOM FEATURE TO MAGNIFY SINGLE..PIXEL CHANGES). THE COPY DESK..COMBINES PHOTO S WITH TEXT AND HAS A..WORD PROCESSING F EATURE THAT ALLOWS..PLACING TEXT AROUND, ABOVE AND UNDER..ILLUSTRATIONS. PLUS, IF THE PHOTO..LOCATION IS CHANGED, THE T EXT WILL..ADJUST AUTOMATICALLY. IT'S A NEAT..FEATURE!.. I USED NEWSROOM TO CRE ATE SEVERAL..NEWSLETTERS. I FOUND FEW P ROBLEMS..WITH ITS OPERATION, SINCE IT AL LOWS..SO MUCH FLEXIBILITY IN PRODUCTION. ..THE INSTRUCTION BOOK IS FAIRLY GOOD,.. EXCEPT THAT IT REFERENCES IBM AND..APPLE VERSIONS AND SOMETIMES IT IS..HARD TO D ISTINGUISH WHICH IS WHICH...IF A USER IS NEW TO JOURNALISM, THE..BOOK PROVIDES A MINI-COURSE COMPLETE..WITH A GLOSSARY O F NEWSPAPER TALK AND..PROOFREADER'S SYMB OLS... A MAJOR PROBLEM, THOUGH, WITH TH E..PROGRAM IS THE FACT THAT IT IS VERY.. PRINTER SPECIFIC. IT SUPPORTS A..MULTIT UDE OF PRINTERS AND INTERFACES,..BUT NOT ALL. MY BLUE CHIP M120/10 IS..NOT SUPP ORTED AND A CALL TO THE..SPRINGBOARD TEC HNICAL SUPPORT STAFF..NETTED NO HELP AT ALL. IT DOES..WORK WELL ON A RELATIVELY INEXPENSIVE..COMMODORE MPS-803, SO ONE WOULD DO..WELL TO SEE IF THEIR PRINTER I S..COMPATIBLE WITH THE PROGRAM... ANOTH ER MAJOR SHORTCOMING IS THAT..THE CLIP A RT LIBRARY DISK IS FULL OF..CARTOON-LIKE ART. IT IS POSSIBLE TO..CREATE NEARLY ANYTHING WITH THE PHOTO..EDITOR, BUT MUC H OF THE LIBRARY IS..NOT VERY USEFUL IF ONE WANTS A SERIOUS..NEWSPAPER. HOWEVER , THERE IS A LOT..OF GOOD ART AND A LOT OF WAYS TO..CHANGE EXISTING ART IF ONE I S..CREATIVE. THE PHOTO LAB AND CLIP ART ..LIBRARIES ARE NOT COMPATIBLE WITH ANY. .OTHER ART GENERATING SYSTEM, AND,..AGAI N THE TECHNICAL SUPPORT PEOPLE DID..NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE SUBJECT...PERHAP S SOMEONE OUT THERE COULD WRITE..A UTILI TY PROGRAM (LIKE "DOODLE..VISITS PRINT S HOP") TO MAKE ART..CREATED WITH DOODLE, FLEXIDRAW AND..SIMILAR PROGRAMS COMPATIB LE. A WAY..TO ENTER REAL PHOTOS CREATED BY VIDEO..FROM COMPUTEREYES(TM) INTO A. .NEWSLETTER CREATED BY NEWSROOM SOUNDS.. LIKE A "WINNING PROGRAM" DISK LOOKING..F OR A PLACE TO BOOT!.. ALL IN ALL, NEWSR OOM IS A GOOD..PROGRAM. WITH THE CORREC T PRINTER, A..SHORT JOURNALISM COURSE, A ND A LITTLE..WORK, ONE CAN HAVE A PROFES SIONAL..LOOKING TWO COLUMN NEWSPAPER. I T'S A..GREAT WAY TO PLAY CLARK KENT AND MAKE..YOUR OWN DAILY PLANET WITHOUT HAVI NG..TO BE A COMPUTER SUPERMAN....------- --< END OF ARTICLE >-----------.
