Useful & quick optional toolbar available for setting picture, text, chapter, and document attributes.
Program (both DOCMaker and the stand-alone document module) now very clean and highly debugged. Thanks to the guys at Onyx Technology, Devon Hubbard and Brooks Bell for their wonderful QC™ program.
Through "Hot Pictures", documents now support QuickTime video, sound, document linking, and more. DOCMaker supports the Claris XTND interface for importing other word processor documents and importing other DOCMaker documents. Full text undo now available. Sixty chapters, more graphics. Duplicate pictures supported to reduce document size overhead. This is an extensive upgrade!!
IF YOU ARE A REGISTERED USER OF DOCMAKER, SEND GREEN MOUNTAIN SOFTWARE YOUR ORIGINAL DISK FOR A FULL UPGRADE, WHICH INCLUDES THE NEW USERS MANUAL AND THE DRAGRES APPLICATION FOR ADVANCED USERS.
• See the chapter “Advanced Techniques” in the DOCMaker Users Manual for information on using DragRes.
DragRes IS FOR ADVANCED USERS ONLY.
IF YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW TO USE DragRes THEN YOU PROBABLY DO NOT NEED IT AND WOULD BE BEST IF YOU JUST LEFT IT ALONE!!!

is an obscure feature that takes up more room than it is worth.

• fixed SAD check on pict integrety (w/mem alrt) (better memory checks when bringing in large pictures: ie alerts)
