View the  Demonstration Catalog live online to see the large format and photo.
It can be printed online on letter sized paper width,  but may take multiple pages to print the entire description provided by the consignor, because unlimited space is allowed for the online catalog and classified companion ad.

 Call 785-456-8600 to obtain the password for the Demo Catalog so you can test the system by setting up real or fictitious horses in the system "hands on." You will be able to use the Print Listing  tools to produce actual press-ready catalog pages for your printed auction catalog.

STEP 1 --  After obtaining the Demo catalog passwords, click any "Login" button at http://www.BuyHorsesOnly.com  and enter the user name and password. (this may be changed from time to time,  so please request it again if stops working.  Use the "Login" button at the top of the sidebar menu on this page.

STEP 2 --  To test the catalog printing feature,  Click the link on the manager menu bar that reads: "Create Print Listing"

 STEP 3 -- A screen will display asking "How many ads you would like on each page?"  A drop-down list will give you 1, 2 or 4 per page.  Choose one of them and click the "Proceed" button.

 STEP 4 -- The next screen will display with the following message and the option you chose:  "The table below represents the sections on a page. Select a horse for each section then Click GO to generate the print layout"

Example: If you chose 4,  a table with 4 quadrants will display with a drop-down list for each so you can select the horse you want to appear in the corresponding quadrant.  Choose the appropriate horses by clicking a  name on each of the 4 drop-down lists.

NOTE:  For best results, use the latest version of Internet Explorer browser.

SETTING BROWSER OPTIONS FOR PRINTING -- When the report(s) are displayed on your screen, you must set your browser to print in landscape orientation, with narrow page margins:
Click "FILE" on your browser's text menu,  then select "Page Set-Up" from the drop-down menu.

Set the page margins to zero all the way around.  The browser will probably reset them to minimum width,  which may be .166 inch or 0.2. This is OK.

Click the "Landscape" radio button to print the page crosswise. (Your browser will return to the usual "portrait" orientation automatically after the page is printed.)

If you plan to print the pages now, you will probably want to remove header and footer printing settings while you generate your printed page files. Those options are also offered in the Page Set-Up. You may want to write down the header and footer codes so you can restore them later.

 STEP 6 --  After the settings are made,  you can preview the page as it will print by clicking "FILE"  then "Print Preview" from the drop-down menu. If everything displays the way you want it to ... and it will,  then you can print the page if you wish.  To print,  simply click the print button on the preview screen.

A laser printer offers the best quality if you plan to use "camera-ready" master pages to photocopy or quick-print your pages. You can save the catalog print page as a PDF file,  which can be attached to email and sent to your printing company.  Usually,  they can use the PDF or digital files directly in their printing software and go directly to press.
