ABSTRACT:
The creation and ordering of custom business forms is simplified for short-run orders, allowing the end user of the business form to design and transmit the order on a personal computer. Using appropriate design software, the business form is first designed, and then electronically transferred into a second software program which allows for the selection of a number of business form parameters, and also includes order parameters including quantity and delivery options. The business form parameters from the design software are automatically transferred to the ordering software, and any remaining parameters that must be selected are then selected in a sequence, the order quantity and delivery information is inputted, and the price is calculated, and then the custom business form and order are transmitted in machine form to a second computer remote from the first computer. At the second computer a confirmation of the order is produced, and the order is evaluated to determine where the best facility to print it is. The order is then electronically transferred to the printing location, and after printing it is shipped. The particular manner of highlighting and/or pictorially illustrating the options selectable, and a number of the particular parameters to be selected--such as the edge along which multipart forms are to be attached--are controlled for optimum utility.
