Applixware 4.4.1: PostScript Documentation Errors
Symptom:
There are three defects in the axdocu package of Linux Office Suite 99, 1st edition. They can be found under /usr/doc/packages/axdocu
.
- There are 4 pages on every A4 page.
- Ghostscript cannot enlarge or even load the document.
- Some pages are incomplete and seem to have been cut off.
Cause:
Since a large proportion of the documentation only contains very few lines per page, it seemed more economical and environmentally friendly to compress 4 PostScript pages onto 1 A4 page.
The pages that have been cut off are a different problem. Macros extracted relevant sections from the online documentation, but there were no page breaks. The same functions yield good results when used interactively. We are working on this...
Since Ghostscript cannot load pages embedded via mpage, we have decided that the next version is going to show only 1 document per page.
Solution:
We can only draw on the available documentation at this time which happens to be identical with the problematic Postscript documentation. Thus no loss of content has occured. You can find the relevant online documentation in Applixware under
Help -> Applixware -> Online Books
