Thank you for buying Org Plus For Windows Version 3.0.
This document contains IMPORTANT INFORMATION you
should know before using the program.
--> When you have finished reading this document, <--
--> choose Exit from the File menu, then double- <--
--> click the Org Plus icon to start the program. <--
=====================================================
WORKING WITH EXISTING CHARTS
*You may use charts created with a previous version
of Org Plus simply by installing the new version of
Org Plus and opening the older chart as usual.
*Charts created or modified in Org Plus for Windows
Version 3.0 can be opened in Versions 2.01 and 2.0,
Org Plus Advanced 6.01, and Microsoft Organization
Chart 1.0. These previous versions do not support all
of the features of Org Plus for Windows 3.0, but they
will convert the newer features to reasonable
equivalents.
*Org Plus for Windows 3.0 charts cannot be opened in
Org Plus for Windows 1.0, Org Plus Advanced 6.0 or
earlier, or Org Plus for Macintosh 1.0.
*Org Plus for Windows 3.0 will read Org Plus Advanced
6.01 Amounts fields and translate them into Org Plus
3.0 Amounts fields. There are some restrictions;
please refer to the Org Plus for Windows 3.0 manual
for details.
COLOR MONITORS
Org Plus for Windows 3.0 gives you the option of
selecting from over 70 colors. If you are using a 16-
color display, some of those colors cannot be
displayed on your monitor. Org Plus will simulate
those colors with patterns of displayable colors when
it draws the interiors of boxes or the chart
background, and will pick the nearest displayable
color for drawing lines and text. Displays which
support 256 or more colors will always correctly show
the selected color.
Regardless of the capabilities of your display, the
selected color will be displayed correctly if
displayed on another system with 256 or more colors,
and will be printed correctly if your printer is
capable of printing that color.
CHART COLORS IN OTHER APPLICATIONS
Org Plus for Windows 3.0 chart colors may appear
different when the chart is embedded or linked through
OLE into a client application that only supports a 16-
color palette. Most current presentation graphics
programs can display the full set of Org Plus colors,
but many word processors cannot.
SHADOW OFFSETS
Org Plus gives you the ability to set the amount of
shadow offset you want to give your lines, text, or
boxes. It is recommended that you set your offset to 4
points or less for the best chart appearance and
program performance.
PRINTING WITH HEWLETT PACKARD LASERJET 4 PRINTERS
If you are printing your charts with an HP LaserJet 4
printer, we recommend that you use a PostScript
printer driver. If you do need to use a non-PostScript
HP LaserJet 4 printer driver, we recommend that you
use the Raster Graphics Mode instead of HP-GL/2
Graphics Mode. You can change the printer driver mode
without exiting Org Plus. From the File menu, select
Print Setup; Org Plus displays the Print Setup dialog
box. Click the Options button to bring up the Options
dialog box and select Raster from the Graphics Mode
pull-down menu.
PRINTING WITH HEWLETT PACKARD LASERJET III PRINTERS
Certain PCL drivers for the HP LaserJet III series
have a problem printing white boxes. We recommend that
you either use a PostScript driver or make your boxes
transparent instead of white. You can set your boxes to
transparent by selecting them and then choosing Color
from the Boxes menu. The lower right cell on the color
grid makes the selected boxes transparent.
ORG PLUS AND MICROSOFT ORGANIZATION CHART
Org Plus for Windows 3.0 installs itself as the OLE
server for PowerPoint 4.0 organization charts. If you
have PowerPoint 4.0 installed, you will find that the
organization chart button on its toolbar and the org
chart "new slide" template will now run Org Plus
instead of Microsoft Organization Chart. Also, when
you edit existing org charts in PowerPoint slides, you
will be using Org Plus, not Microsoft Organization
Chart. Org Plus 3.0 is completely compatible with
Microsoft Organization Chart 1.0.
NETWORK FILE SHARING
Org Plus for Windows 3.0 will allow simultaneous
access to a chart file. The first to open it has full
write access; while it is open, others can open it
read-only. In order for network sharing to work, SHARE
must be installed on the systems involved. See your
Windows documentation for details.
INSTALLING WHEN WINDOWS IS RUN FROM A NETWORK
If you are running Windows from a network and the
Windows System directory is on the net and is write-
protected, the Install will be unable to install the
file CTRL3DV2.DLL there. Before you are able to run
Org Plus, you will need to get your system
administrator to manually install this file.
