- Question & Answer Document Set
-
- This file was formatted with Ventura Publisher and is one of four
- chapters in a set submitted by Xerox Customer Support in Lewisville,
- Texas. To get the entire set of 4 files, you must download QA-1.ARC,
- QA-2.ARC, QA-3.ARC and QA-4.ARC. The entire set makes a good reference
- work for isolating problems reported frequently by users.
-
- The documents are in Question and Answer format and are a collection
- of frequently asked questions answered by the Customer Support Group
- and Ventura Software. The documents were designed as a training aide for
- new customer support personnel at the Lewisville Facility. Please ignore
- the phrase, "Tell the Customer", placed throughout the files.
-
- To extract information from the ARC files, you need to download the
- PKX35A35.EXE file from the ARC file storage area. Create a sub-directory
- on your hard disk for extracting the files. Place PKX35A35.EXE in this
- directory Along with the QA-n.ARC files. When PKX35A35 is executed, several
- executable files will be placed on your hard disk. One of these files,
- PKXARC.EXE is used to remove the Q&A chapters from their arcive files.
- Full documentation for Phil Katz's PK utilities will also be placed on
- your hard disk. To extract the files, enter:
-
- PKXARC -e *.ARC *.*
-
- All Chapter, Caption, Style and Text files will be extracted and placed
- in the subdirectory. Transfer all the files containing the QA-n filename
- to floppy disks. These include the files with the .CHP, .STY, .CAP, and
- .CIF file extensions. You may then start Ventura Publisher and use the
- Multi-Chapter selection on the Options menu to transfer the files to your
- hard disk.
-
- To do so, select NEW from the Multi-Chapter menu, then add the QA-n.CHP
- files using the ADD CHAPTER option. When all four files are added to the
- list, use the SAVE command to give the PUBLICATION a name. For instance,
- you can call the Publication Q&A. The Multi-Chapter screen will reappear
- and the PUB file name selected will appear on the top of the dialog box.
- Choose the COPY ALL option and a new dialog box will appear. Follow the
- instructions in the Ventura Publisher manual for filling in the data entry
- fields on this dialog box. When you're finished, click on the large button
- on the bottom of the dialog box to transfer the files to your hard disk.
-
- As the files are transfered, a message will appear stating OUTPUT.WID not
- found. Press the IGNORE button to continue with the file transfer. When
- Multi-Chapter finishes, the entire file set will be placed on your hard
- disk along with the publication file. Quit Multi-Chapter and exit to DOS,
- then use the DOS COPY command to transfer the OUTPUT.WID file in your
- \VENTURA directory to the new directory containing the Q&A files.
-
- When your finished, start VP again and use the PRINT option on the FILES
- menu to print each file separately or the use Multi-Chapter to print the
- entire publication.
-
- Check the Q&A file area in the VP FORUM on a frequent basis for updates.
- More files will be added in the future. At some point in time, these files
- will be broken down into smaller categories (FRAME problems, BREAK
- problems, etc.) and placed on-line in the VP FORUM's on-line database.
