System Support

Since you are using the tutorial it is assumed that your computer has at least the minimum requirements to run FileMaker Pro and WSDOT electronic forms.

The following are the minimum requirements to use electronic forms (FileMaker Pro 5.0):

Windows

Pentium class processor with 64 MB RAM memory

Hard disk drive with at least 70 MB of disk space free

Windows 95 or later with TruType fonts installed

VGA video adapter

Laser or Ink Jet printer

Macintosh

64 MB RAM memory

Hard drive disk with at least 70 MB of disk space free

System 7.6.1 or higher

Helvetica and Times normal fonts

Laser or Ink Jet printer

NOTE: The above specifications are minimum requirements to utilize FileMaker Pro 5.0 and related software only. Operating additional applications simultaneously may require additional memory.

MAC NOTE: Previously we recommended using Arial and Times New Roman TruType fonts on the Macintosh platform. We have discovered that those fonts installed on a Macintosh will cause extremely long print times (as much as 3 hours for some multi-page forms). Do not use these fonts. If you have these fonts installed on your Macintosh system and are experiencing long print times, removal of these fonts should significantly reduce print times. Contact your computer support staff for assistance.

Supported Printers:

HP Series 2

HP Series 4000

HP Series 3, 3si

HP Series 4, 4m, 4m+, 4si

The forms should print on any laser printer with no problems. See the Notes and Warning Section for known problems with specific printers.

Page clipping may occur with some inkjet printers, but should not be significant enough to cause problems.

The forms have not been tested on dot-matrix printers.
