- Short: PageStream 3.0i Free Update (all versions)
- Author: Soft-Logik Publishing, Inc.
- Uploader: soft-logik@cup.portal.com
- Type: biz/patch
-
- WELCOME TO THE PAGESTREAM 3.0i FREE UPDATE!
- -------------------------------------------
-
- WHAT PATCH FILES DO I NEED?
-
- To reduce the amount you need to download, we have provided patches
- from all recent versions. Most people should just need to download a
- single patch (two files). If you have an older version, the most you
- will need to download is two patches (four files).
-
- To upgrade from 3.0h2->3.0i: download PGS32I.LHA and PGS3I.LHA.
- To upgrade from 3.0h ->3.0i: download PGS3HI.LHA and PGS3I.LHA.
- To upgrade from 3.0g ->3.0i: download PGS3GI.LHA and PGS3I.LHA.
- To upgrade from 3.0f ->3.0i: download PGS3FI.LHA and PGS3I.LHA.
-
- After you have downloaded both files, decompress them both to the
- same directory and then run the installer.
-
- If you don't have one of these versions, you will first need to
- upgrade to 3.0f:
-
- To upgrade from 3.0e ->3.0f: download PGS3EF.LHA.
- To upgrade from 3.0d ->3.0f: download PGS3DF.LHA and PGS3F.LHA.
- To upgrade from 3.0c ->3.0f: download PGS3CF.LHA and PGS3F.LHA.
- To upgrade from 3.0b ->3.0f: download PGS3BF.LHA and PGS3F.LHA.
- To upgrade from 3.0a ->3.0f: download PGS3AF.LHA and PGS3F.LHA.
- To upgrade from 3.0 ->3.0f: download PGS30F.LHA and PGS3F.LHA.
-
- This update requires disk 1 of your original PageStream3 disk set.
- It will not be modified by the update.
-
- You must have sufficient free hard drive space to use this patch. 4MB
- of free space is recommended.
-
- If you're not sure what version of PageStream3 you have installed,
- run it and check the version number in the Navigator requester.
-
-
- USING THIS PATCH
- ----------------
-
- IF YOU HAVE 5MB OR MORE OF RAM, you can decompress the archives to
- RAM and not worry about memory limitations.
-
- IF YOU HAVE 4MB OF RAM, you can decompress the archives to RAM, but
- you must delete the archives from RAM before running the patch.
- (Copy them somewhere safe in case you need them again!)
-
- IF YOU HAVE LESS THAN 4MB OF RAM, you cannot use PageStream3.0i.
- This version requires at least 4MB of memory.
-
- A drawer called "3.0iUpdate" will be created when you decompress
- the patches. Both archives contain this Read.1st! file, so your
- decompression program will ask if you it is ok to overwrite the
- first Read.1st! file; this is normal. Double click on the
- Install-PageStream3.0i icon in this drawer to begin.
-
- YOU SHOULD KEEP A COPY OF THE PATCH FILES UNTIL AFTER YOU HAVE
- SUCCESSFULLY INSTALLED THIS UPDATE IN CASE YOU NEED TO RUN IT AGAIN
- OR MANUALLY. If you delete them after decompressing them, and
- something goes wrong during patching, you will have to download them
- again! If you have adequate hard drive space, simply select the
- PageStream3 directory and choose Copy from the Workbench's Icon menu
- to make a complete duplicate of your PageStream3 directory. If you
- have a problem with the patch, you will have a backup to restore.
-
- TECHNICAL NOTES: this update will patch the PageStream3, BME and
- PageLiner program files in your PageStream3: directory. Every other
- file changed from 3.0h2 is included. If you purchased an add-on
- module such as the TextFX extension, it will be patched to the
- latest version if required.
-
- LOW MEMORY NOTES: If you do not have enough memory to install this
- patch (the SAS patch utility will fail if there is not enough free
- memory), you can conserve memory by decompressing the patch archives
- to your hard drive instead of to RAM:. If the patch fails due to low
- memory, you will not be able to use PageStream3 until you have
- successfully installed the patch because you will then have a
- mixture of 3.0i and earlier files. If you need to run the patch
- manually, decompress the PGSpatch.LHA (or BMEpatch.LHA or
- PLpatch.LHA files as applicable) archive found in the PGS3H21.LHA
- file. Use the spatch utility from this archive. The command syntax
- is:
-
- spatch -oPageStream3:PageStream3.0i -pPageStream.pch PageStream3:PageStream3
-
- spatch -oPageStream3:BME2.0e -pBME.pch PageStream3:BME
-
- spatch -oPageStream3:PageLiner2.0g -pPageLiner.pch PageStream3:PageLiner
-
- The first parameter is the new version, the second parameter is the
- patch file name (include the path if required), and the third
- parameter is the currently installed version of PageStream3. Delete
- the old version (PageStream3, BME or PageLiner) when you're done and
- then rename the new version to the old version (ie, PageStream 3.0h2
- to PageStream3).
-
- UPDATE OPTIONS: If you want 3.0i on disk, you can order it from
- Soft-Logik sales for just $10.
-
- If you have previously compressed the PageStream3, BME or PageLiner
- program files with something such as PowerPacker, you will probably
- not be able to use this patch, even if you decompress them.
