Digita Wordworth 5SE Additional Notes - 12th February 1996.
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
For information regarding the new features in Wordworth 5SE,
please refer to the help section "What's New in 5.0".
Please Note:
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
1 Users running Wordworth from floppy disk will notice that the
program auto-runs when booted up from the Wordworth5SE disk.
2 Users upgrading from Wordworth 3.1SE or 4SE should use their
existing Licence numbers with Wordworth 5.
3 Floppy disk users will have to Quit Wordworth before they can
install any of the Digita Font Collections or Digita Print Manager.
Otherwise, they will run out of memory whilst installing.
4 When the `Install Wordworth 5SE' icon is double-clicked, you will
experience a delay before you are asked to choose your experience
level. This is normal as the install script is quite large.
5 If you have a previous version of Wordworth, and wish to install
this new version, you will have to create a new set of disks as
before, or rename your existing disks and install over the top of
them.
6 There is a Help section titled `Troubleshooting'. Please read this
section before contacting Digita Technical Support as your query may
be contained within the help files.
Common Startup Problems
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Q I have installed Wordworth to my hard disk without any problems, but
when I run the program I get a `Wordworth Startup Error'.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
A This message often occurs when there are old 1.3 versions of the
Workbench libraries present.
Either double-click the Snoop tool, located in the WwTools drawer on
the Ww5SESystem disk (or in the Wordworth5SE drawer on hard-disk)
and send the printouts to Digita Technical Support for analysis.
Or, open up a Shell window (Workbench System drawer) and type:
`copy Workbench3.0:Libs/#? LIBS:'
Workbench 2.0 users type: `copy Workbench2.0:Libs/#? LIBS:'
Workbench 2.1 users type: `copy Workbench2.1:Libs/#? LIBS:'
This will install all of the original libraries from your Workbench
disk back onto your hard disk.
Q I get half way through the installation process, and a message
appears telling me that I have a Checksum error.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
A It seems that the install disk you are using has an error on it. Make
a new backup of the faulty disk from your Master set and try again.
If the problem persists then send the disks back to Digita Technical
Support with a stamped, addressed jiffy bag and covering letter so
that we may exchange the disks with a tested set immediately.
Q When I install Wordworth onto my hard disk, it tells me that there
is not enough disk space on my System partition to install. I have
60MB free!
------------------------------------------------------------------
A Hard disks are usually split up into several areas or partitions.
Commonly there is a `Work' and a `Workbench' (sometimes called a
System or Boot partition).
Wordworth needs to copy several items (fonts and libraries) to your
System partition in order to work correctly. When there is not enough
disk space on this partition, this error message is displayed.
It may be that you have booted from the Ww5SEInstall-1 floppy-disk
before attempting to install to a hard-disk, this will not work and
will cause this error. If this is the case then turn on your Amiga
with no floppy-disks inserted, so the Amiga boots from the hard-disk,
then insert the Ww5SEInstall-1 floppy-disk, double-click its disk
icon, double-click the 'Install Wordworth 5SE' icon and follow the
on-screen prompts.
Q When I try and run Wordworth, the Wordworth screen appears and it
tells me that it cannot find `Shannon Book' and was unable to
`Initialise Document'.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
A This could be due to lack of memory on your machine. Ensure that you
have 2MB of free memory before starting Wordworth. Free Memory is the
amount of memory displayed in the Workbench title bar after the
machine is turned on (2MB will be displayed as 2,097,152 bytes).
Alternatively, the Wordworth environment variable may be pointing to
the wrong place, due to you moving the Wordworth5SE drawer to a
different location after installing. Run the Snoop program located in
WwTools drawer (Ww5SESystem disk when running from floppies) and send
Digita Technical Support the printout.
Q When I run Wordworth from floppy disks, the message `Cannot open
necessary library files' appears and I am returned to the Workbench.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
A You have turned your machine on (`booted up') with the Amiga Workbench
disk in the internal drive. You must turn on (or reset) your Amiga with
the Wordworth5SE floppy disk in the internal drive before attempting to
run Wordworth.
