- Deal effectively with complex jobs re batching -- batch a letter, two-up BRCs and four up coupons for proper, efficient delivery to the inserter.
- One PC for Jet Letter set-ups and one server can control many printers
- Fully compatible with output mailing lists from all popular PC-based pre-sorting
programs

Variable and Math

- Load dozens of tables into memory for fast processing
- “Point to” and use external tables (DBF files)
- Inclusion of an unlimited number of variables or “Merge Fields”,
- Each variable is 1024 bytes long
- Use normal English for variable names
- Use one dimensional arrays as variables {cost(x)}
- Use existing column headings as variable names

- Accurate integer and dollar math up to +/- 2,000,000,000
(floating-point math causes rounding errors in dollar amounts)
- Proper handling of U.S. currency. $7,234,567.89 is valid.
- Tests and arithmetic can be done on these currency values
- Conversion of dollars to dollar text
- String manipulation, length, insertion, and search for character(s), concatenation.
- Persistent variables saved from run to run -- such as last invoice number, individual, batch, or group totals, discounts offered, etc.

Logic

- Relational Database Capability Though Tables
- Conditionally Selected Text/Graphics/Format/Forms/Subroutines
- True IF, WHILE and FOR programming structures
- String manipulation; length, insertion, search for character, substitution, concatenation
- One to many lookups – find all records with a selected key
- Support for complex jobs
- Batch totals
- Persistent variables – individual billing amounts, number of transactions, totals by batch, type or group saved from job to job
- Numeric data summaries (or detail) to your client
- Print invoice totals on first page
- Page x of n
- Draw bar charts, pie charts etc based on variable data – in color
- Perform logic on computed numeric data – “Since your billing exceeds $x for the last three months, and you are a member of the y club, you are entitled to a z% discount.” Where x, y and z can be table lookups based on dollar amounts, and affiliation tables.

Fonts and Barcodes

- Use of up to 250 Simultaneous Printer Fonts
300, 600, or 1200 dpi Fonts
- True Type to PCL converter built in

Barcode Printing:
- Postnet and Planet code with checkdigit calculation
- Code 39 and code 39 extended
- Code 2 of 5 interleaved
- Code 128a/b/c
- UPC
- Easy-to-use USPS Delivery and Signature Confirmation
2D Barcodes

- Underlining, Bolding and Strike-through
- Simulated Realistic Hand Writing
- Perfect MICR printing with one command (to 1/720 inch)
OCR-A/B

Tables

- Draw data from any number of tables
- Each column in a table represents another variable to use
- Find key in one table for the next table, etc. etc. (nested linking)
- Do what may have been done in FoxPro, Access, or VB in Jet Letter,
but much faster both in set-up and processing time.
- Cells in tables may contain Jet Letter scripts – use logic to call a “standard” script stored in a table.
- One to many lookups – find all rows with a common key
