How?


Install the Microsoft Web Publishing Wizard 1.1

If you have the i publish CD (compact disc), you can install the Microsoft Web Publishing Wizard from the CD. If you don't have the CD, you can download the Microsoft Web Publishing Wizard from the Design Intelligence Web site.

1.	Click here to go to a Web site to download it:

http://www.design-intelligence.com/
download/compsoft.html

2.	Depending on your Web browser settings, you may be asked whether you want to open it or save it to disk. If you want to save it, click Save It To Disk, and then click OK. In the Save As box, find the folder where you want the self-extracting file to go, and then click Save.

The self-extracting file is different from the installed program—it's just a compressed version of all of the files. You can delete the self-extracting file after you install the program, so it's a good idea to put self-extracting files in a place you clean out often, such as in a C:\Temp folder.

3.	When the self-extracting file is finished downloading, in Windows Explorer, locate the file you just downloaded, and double-click it.

The Microsoft Web Publishing Wizard installation starts.

4.	After you've finished installing the Microsoft Web Publishing Wizard, you can either delete the self-extracting file or archive it in case you need to reinstall the program.

5.	After you've finished installing the Internet Explorer, you can either delete the self-extracting file or archive it in case you need to reinstall the program.


Set up your Internet Service Provider (ISP)

Before you can post your Web pages to the Web, you need to set up your Internet or Web Service Provider's (ISP) information.

1.	Talk to your ISP and gather the following information:

What is your user name and password?

In most cases, these should be the ones you use to connect to the Web.

Do you use "Dial-up Networking" (a modem) to access the Internet? Or do you use a "Local Area Network (Intranet)"?

What is the URL or Internet Address to which you will post your pages?

Many ISPs use this format:

http://www.provider.com/~username

2.	On the File menu, click Publish For Web.

3.	Click the Configure tab.

4.	Under Internet, click New.

5.	Follow the instructions onscreen to set up your ISP.


Create your own intelligent component

You can save a component you've created so that you can use it in other documents. For example, if you get your nameplate just the way you like it, you can save it and use it in other documents.

When you add an intelligent component that you've created, i publish automatically changes it to match the current document's layout. However, if you applied a scheme to just that component, that scheme remains applied to the new component in the new document.

1.	Point to the component, and then click the right mouse button.

2.	On the popup menu, point to Select, and then click the component.

3.	On the File menu, click Save Component.

Note: In most cases, you need to be sure that your scanner or other TWAIN device is turned on before you start your computer.

1.	Click the picture component where you want to add the picture.

How do you add a picture component?

Tip: When empty, picture components look like gray boxes.

2.	On the File menu, click Acquire, and then click Select Source.

Note: If the Acquire option is not available, then either your scanner or other TWAIN device is not attached, your device does not support the TWAIN format, or the scanner's or other TWAIN device's software is not installed correctly.

Print your document on an outside printer

If you don't have time to print your document, or if you are not always connected to a printer, you can create a file that contains the document you want to print, and you can then print the file at a later time.

If you plan to go to a business that has high-end printers available, you may want to call them in advance. These businesses typically have files available for you to install on your computer. You'll typically need these files:

Printer driver file

PPD file (PostScript Printer Description)

Print your document to a file

1.	Make sure you have installed the printer driver for the specific printer you'll be using. For details, see the Windows online Help.

2.	On the File menu, click Print Setup.

3.	In the Name box, click the printer that you'll print the file with.

4.	If you need to change printer settings, click Properties.

5.	On the File menu, click Publish To Printer.

6.	Check the Print To File box, and then click OK.

7.	In the File Name box, type a file name, and then click Save.

If you're printing to a PCL printer, i publish adds .prn to the end of the file name. (Such as myfile.prn.)

If you're printing to a PostScript printer, i publish adds .ps to the end of the file name. (Such as myfile.ps.)

Make sure you take the following files with you to the outside printer:

The file you just created, ending in either .prn or .ps.

The file that i publish creates may be too large to fit on a floppy disk. If you need to take this file to another business, you may need to use a Zip drive or use a program (such as Pkzip) to put the file on multiple floppy disks.

How can you save a file across multiple floppy disks?

The font files for the fonts you used in your document.

You can find your fonts in your C:\Windows\Fonts folder. Fonts end in .ttf

Print the file

1.	Click the Windows Start menu, click Programs, and then click MS-DOS Prompt.

2.	Type the following, where "PRINTER" is the name of your printer queue.

net use lpt1 \\PRINTER

3.	If you're printing to a PCL printer, type the following, where "yourfile.prn" is the name of your printer file.

copy yourfile.prn > lpt1

If you're printing to a Postscript printer, type the following, where "yourfile.ps" is the name of your printer file.

copy yourfile.ps > lpt1

What's an intelligent component?

Intelligent components are the building blocks of an i publish document. In fact, they're what make i publish smart. Each picture and piece of text in every i publish document is contained in a component. You'll find components when you click around in a document. The borders around text and pictures outline components.

Each intelligent component knows its role—Picture, Item Heading, Item Text, and so on. A component knows whether it can contain words or images (or both) and what to do with them. For example, a sentence contained in an Item Heading component will look like a headline; that same text in an Item Text component will look very different.

Because all the text and pictures in a document are contained in intelligent components, i publish knows where to position text and pictures and how to format them depending on their function. For example, in a letter, i publish puts the Writer's Name and Writer's Title components at the bottom; in a memo, those same components pop to the top. Or, in a printed document, an email address is just another piece of text; but in a Web document, it's a link the user can click to send email.


What's a layout?

A layout provides a basic structure for your document, giving it an ordered look. i publish layouts, on the other hand, are interchangeable. Just make your best guess at picking a layout you like for the document you have in mind. It's easy to switch down the road.

Because the layout is truly automatic, you won't need to play with the size of pictures, the length of lines, or the position of text and pictures on the page. i publish layouts are smart enough to accommodate that extra picture or a lot of text, even adding pages if they're needed. And if you decide to cut things, the layouts know to shrink the components and construct the page so everything still fits nicely.


What's a pull quote?

A pull quote is an excerpt from the main text set off in a larger font size, with a border, shading or some other decorative effect. It's used to add visual interest to the page and attract the reader's attention. In i publish a pull quote is an intelligent component.


What's a Profile component?

Use a Profile component in a flier, catalog, onscreen presentation, and some Web pages to feature a person in your company. You might include a descriptive sentence or two and a picture along with contact information. For example, in a real estate flier about a property, you could profile the listing agent. A Profile component appears at the bottom of a sheet layout, and on the last page of a booklet layout.


What's a sidebar?

A sidebar presents non-essential information related to a main topic. Typically, sidebars are set off from the main body with a box or shading. For example, an article on nutrition might have a sidebar on how to tell when you need vitamins. In i publish a sidebar is an intelligent component.


What do curly quotes look like?

Use curly quotes rather than straight quotes to give a polish to your document.


What's a nested list?

A nested list is subordinate to the main list and is indented to show that relationship.

Here's an example:

Oranges are a good source of nutrition, including:

Vitamin C

Folic Acid

Bananas are also nutritious, but they're higher in calories than oranges.


What's a following paragraph?

A following paragraph provides details about the bulleted item above it.

Here's an example:

Oranges

They're a great source of nutrition, including: Vitamin C and Folic Acid.

Bananas

They're nutritious, but they're higher in calories than oranges.


How to get the most out of your pictures

Trimming a picture

When you trim a picture in i publish, you're telling the program what you want to happen with your picture so i publish can make it look good in the design you've chosen.

Trimming has two functions, both of which define what part of your picture the user sees:

The red rectangle trims off the area that you never want to see.

The green rectangle defines the portion of the picture that you always want to see. If the green rectangle is not the same shape as the space available for it in the current layout, i publish uses the portion inside the green rectangle plus some of the surrounding picture to fill the available space.

Change the emphasis of a picture

If a picture is in the middle of a body of text, you can change its visual importance on the page—that is, make it bigger or smaller. This may also change its position in the document.

How?


What's the difference between delete and clear?

Deleting removes the text, picture, and the intelligent component itself from your document.

Use Delete when you no longer want the component in your document—for example, you could delete a caption component if you decided the picture no longer needed it.

Clearing removes the selected text or picture only, and leaves the empty component in your document.

Use Clear when you want to replace a piece of text or a picture with other text or another picture.


What's OLE?

Using object linking and embedding (OLE), you can create an object in one program and add it to a document in another program such as i publish. For example, you can create a diagram in Visio or a spreadsheet in Excel, and then embed it in your i publish file.

Then, if you want to update the object, you just double-click it in your i publish document.


What programs support OLE?

To see a list, click Object on the Insert menu.

Some OLE programs support linking and embedding for all types of objects. Others support only embedding for certain types of objects and only linking for others. If a program doesn't support one or the other for a particular kind of object, the OLE program won't be listed when you click Paste on the Edit menu.

What's a paragraph style?

Just as intelligent components give structure to every i publish document, paragraph styles organize and format blocks of text that contain more than one paragraph. Use a style when you want to differentiate levels of headings, create bulleted lists, make quoted passages of text stand out, and so on.

Paragraph styles give i publish direction on how you want each block of text to look. When you apply a style (from the toolbar), i publish assigns characteristics to the text based on the current schemes and layout.

Schemes specify the fonts and font sizes of the paragraph style, the color, and so on.

Layouts govern the text's position on the page. (For example, a layout might direct a heading to span two columns.)

That way, when you change a scheme or layout, the paragraph styles respond accordingly.

How i publish imports text with styles

When you bring in text from another program, such as a word processor, i publish honors the intent of the style. i publish does not, however, keep the fonts, font sizes, and so on, because it applies the formatting of the i publish schemes you chose. For example, i publish will apply its own Heading 1 style to all headings that you styled as first-level headings in your word processor.

How styles impact Web pages and onscreen presentations

Paragraph styles also give i publish information about how to publish a Web page or onscreen presentation. For example, if you divide a long report into sections by applying the Section Head style to your main headings, i publish puts each section on its own Web page or screen.

What's a drop cap?

A drop cap (such as the one shown below) is a large, decorative letter used to introduce a block of text and create some visual interest on the page.


Leave this paragraph here...for some (unknown) reason, it makes the next topic appear properly.


What happens when you Publish for Web?

When you use the Publish For Web option, i publish converts your i publish file (.did) into multiple HTML files (.htm). When you publish your Web pages:

To My Computer, i publish saves your files in the folder you set (using the Configure tab).

You can view your pages using i publish or your Web browser.

To the Internet, i publish takes your Web pages and the pictures they use and copies all of it to the Web server (such as AOL, CompuServe®, and so on) that you set using the Configure tab.

Then, your Web pages will be available on the World Wide Web for people to visit.


What's a scheme?

You've heard the term "color scheme"—a set of colors, usually chosen by a professional designer, that are designed to work well together. i publish uses this familiar idea with four design schemes that together create the look and feel of every document:

color

fonts and font sizes

graphic effects, such as borders and shading

paragraph alignment and indents as well as spacing between paragraphs


What's a color scheme?

A color scheme is a professionally-chosen set of coordinated colors that i publish applies to a document—to text, graphic elements (such as borders and lines), and backgrounds (such as in a sidebar). You choose the color scheme that works best for your document; i publish knows where and how to apply it.

You can change the colorfulness of your document using the Color Scheme Level. As you raise the level, you increase the document's colorfulness. If you set the level at zero, you'll get just black and white. You can also increase colorfulness by changing the Graphic Effects level, as it provides elements—such as borders and shading—that i publish applies color to.


What's a graphic effects scheme?

A graphic effects scheme, which adds such elements as lines, shading, and borders, serves two main purposes in your document—to organize it and to decorate it. You choose the graphic effects scheme that works best for your document; i publish knows where and how to apply it.

You can accentuate the graphic effects in your document using the Graphic Effects Level. As you raise the level, you give the graphic effects more visual importance on the page; this has the added effect of increasing the colorfulness of your document because the graphic effects provide something for i publish to apply color to. (Note that if you set the level at zero, your document will get no graphic effects at all.)


What's a paragraph scheme?

Paragraph schemes control paragraph alignment and indents, as well as the spacing between paragraphs. You choose the paragraph scheme that works best for your document; i publish knows where and how to apply it. Some paragraph schemes work in tandem with paragraph styles. For example, to see the large first letter (drop cap) in Formal paragraph schemes, you must apply a lead paragraph style (Section Lead, Body Lead, and Deck Lead) to see the drop cap in your document.


What's a font scheme?

Font schemes control which fonts (and their relative sizes) are used in a document, including: all the headings, subheadings, body text, captions, and so on. It also controls which bullet graphics are used for your text. When you change a font scheme, i publish changes all the fonts in your document. You choose the font scheme that works best for your document; i publish knows where and how to apply it.

Some font schemes (such as "Times and Arial") use two fonts:

The first font is used for headings and titles.

The second font is used for body text.

Other schemes (such as "All Arial") apply the same font throughout your document.


What's an onscreen presentation?

In the past, presentations were developed on 35mm slides or printed on overhead transparencies and shown as a slide show. Now, presentations such as these can be created and delivered on your computer. Each screen makes one point and in i publish you move from screen to screen by clicking back and next arrows.


What's a scheme set?

A scheme set is made up of settings from all four schemes that together contribute to the document’s look:

A color scheme, which applies one or more colors in appropriate places on a page.

A font scheme, which sets both fonts and font sizes.

A graphic effects scheme, which controls borders, shading, and lines.

A paragraph scheme, which sets text alignment and spacing.

When you start a document, you choose a scheme set. However, you’re not locked into your choice. You can still change each scheme individually to get just the right look for your document.


What's a template?

A template is made up of:

A layout that controls the arrangements of text and pictures on the page.

Components that contain each picture and piece of text you put in your document.

When you start a document, you choose a template as your starting point. However, you’re not locked into your choice. You can still:

Change the layout to rearrange the text and pictures on the page.

Add components to or delete components from your document.


What's are mirrored margins?
What are mirrored margins?

Most books have different left and right pages. For example, the page numbers might be in the upper-left corner of left pages, and upper-right corner of right pages. In addition, there's usually extra space for the inside margins so that there's enough room for the binding. These are called mirrored margins.

You can have i publish mirror the margins of any newsletter.


What is indicia?

Newsletters can have mailing panels, so you can send them through the mail without an envelope. Indicia is the markings used for stamps or postal information.

What's does Banner, Logo, and Logotype mean?

Banner—Your newsletter's title (text).

Logo—An image of some kind that represents your newsletter or company.

Logotype—Text converted to a graphic image, such as the IBM logotype.

In a newsletter, you can change whether i publish displays your banner, logo, or logotype. (On the Design menu, click Layouts, click Custom Layout, and then click the Component tab.)


Fitting your text and pictures on an i publish page

i publish has its own methods for fitting things on the page as it lays out text and pictures for you. For documents with small components that hold short blocks of text, if the page gets a little tight, here are some of the techniques i publish uses to fit things on the page:

Reduce font size and leading.

Reduce picture size.

Adjust how much of the picture is shown. i publish can only do this you've given i publish additional information about your picture by trimming it.

How?

When things get really tight, i publish alerts you with a red border around the components that may be contributing to the problem.

How can you get text and pictures to fit better on the page?

If your document is too full, you may solve the problem by making just one of the changes below.

Edit your text.

Reduce the height of your picture.

How?

Change the level of your graphic effects scheme.

How do you change the level of a graphic effects scheme?

Try a different graphic effects, paragraph, or font scheme altogether.

How do you change a scheme?

Try a different layout that gives more room to the component that is too full.

How?

Use a different picture.

Delete components to give more vertical space to the component that is too full.

How do you turn off the red rectangles?


When is fitting an issue?

When your page is very full, it usually means that one of the components is too tall to fit well on the page. You can tell your document is too full when:

You see red borders around components that may be contributing to the fit problem.

The black marker in the Status fit indicators at the bottom of your screen are in the red.

Pictures or text are cut off and i publish draws a red border around those components.

OLE


What if you couldn't add a table, chart, or diagram this way?

Check the other program's documentation to make sure that it supports OLE.


What if the Paste Special command isn't available?

You may not have chosen the Copy command in the program in which you created the table, chart, or diagram. Or, the program you copied from doesn't support OLE for this type of object.


What if the changes you made to the OLE object don't show up in i publish?

You may not have saved or updated the changes before you returned to i publish. After you click Exit & Return, make sure that you click Yes when you're asked whether you want to update the object.


What if the File menu of the source program doesn't have an Exit & Return command?

Some programs may use different wording for the command. If it's not obvious which command to use, see the manual or online help for that program.


What if you can't drag your text onto the page?

One of the following may be the problem:

You might have a picture component selected. Click a text component and try again.

You may be trying to drop a lot of text on a component that can only hold a small amount of text, such as a title. Try dropping the text onto a different text component.

The text's format may not be supported by i publish. Try saving it in a format that i publish supports.

What text formats are supported?


What if you can't drag your picture onto the page?

One of the following may be the problem:

You might be trying to drag the picture onto a text component that can't accept a picture, like a title. Try dragging the picture onto a different text component or onto a picture component (gray box).

The picture's format may not be supported by i publish. Try saving it in a format that i publish supports.

What picture formats are supported?


What if the text looks the same after you changed it?

You may not have highlighted the text before you tried to change it. Highlight the text, and then try changing it.


What if the colors or graphic effects look the same after you changed them?

Colors and graphic effects have sliders that set how much color and effects are applied.

1.	On the Design menu, click Schemes.

2.	Click the Level tab.

3.	Under Colors Used or Graphic Effects Used, drag the slider further to the right.


What if you have a black and white printer, so you don't want to use color in your document?

The colors schemes have a slider that set how much color is applied to your document—you can turn the color off.

1.	On the Design menu, click Schemes.

2.	Click the Level tab.

3.	Under Colors Used, drag the slider all the way to the left to "Off."


What if text prints as gray or black on your color printer?

Many people set their color printers to convert colors to shades of gray so that printing is faster. Check it out:

1.	On the File menu, click Publish to Printer.

2.	Under Printer, click Properties.

3.	Check the settings to see if they're set to print in black and white colors (sometimes called grayscale).

If you use more than one printer, you may be printing to a non-color printer. Check it out:

1.	On the File menu, click Publish to Printer.

2.	Under Printer, check what printer you're using.

If necessary, switch to the color printer.


What if you can't see anything after you zoom in?

Scroll up, down, or side-to-side, because you may be looking at a blank area of your page.

Or, you may not have clicked the text or picture before you zoomed. When nothing is selected, i publish zooms to the top, left corner of the current page. Zoom out, then click the text or picture and try zooming in again.

To zoom in, press CTRL+SHIFT and the = (equals) key.

To zoom out, press CTRL and the - (minus) key.

To go back to the last zoom setting, press F9.


What if your pictures don't look smooth?

Did you get your picture off the Web?

Pictures you take from the Web are usually 72 dpi (dots per inch), so although they look fine on your screen, you may not be satisfied with their printed quality. Typically, pictures in a magazine or other printed documents are 300 dpi. Try using a higher resolution picture.

Is your picture a bitmap?

If you add a small bitmap to a large picture component, you may not get the results you want. i publish scales the bitmap to fit the space, which may cause the bitmap to look grainy. (i publish always scales it proportionally though.) Try saving the bitmap in a different file format.

Are you creating an onscreen presentation?

If your pictures don't look smooth in your onscreen presentation, try one of the following:

Use higher resolution pictures in your i publish document, so that when i publish enlarges them for the screen, they still have enough resolution to look good.

If you've tightly cropped the picture, try uncropping it to show more of the picture.

How?


What if you clicked and typed text, but you don't see your text anywhere?

You may have clicked a picture component or the entire document. Zoom in by pressing CTRL+SHIFT and the = (equals) key, click a text component, and then try typing your text again.


What if the styles list isn't available?

One of the following may be the problem:

You might have a picture component selected. Click a text component and try again.

You can only apply a style to a paragraph in a text component that can hold a lot of text. You may have a single paragraph text component selected, such as a title.


What if you updated your Web page, but the changes didn't show up in your Web browser?

Using Internet Explorer

To be able to display pages quickly, your browser has a "cache" where it stores Web pages that you've already looked at. Sometimes you have to tell your browser to reload or refresh a page.

Click this button.

Using Netscape

Try Netscape's Refresh button first. If that doesn't work, it could be because Netscape sometimes has trouble refreshing Web pages that use HTML frames. Try this:

1.	Click [image] to minimize your Netscape window.

2.	Click Netscape in the Windows taskbar (at the bottom of your screen) to display it again.

You should now see your updated Web page.


What if the scheme changes in just one part of your document?

Make sure that you just click the scheme—if you drag and drop the scheme, it applies only to the component that you dropped it on.


What if the title changes size as you type?

As you type text into a title, i publish formats the text so that it fills the line. As you add more text, i publish reduces the size of your text. If you add too much text to fit on one line, i publish moves text to the next line and increases the text size so that both text lines fill the title space.


How does i publish handle imported fields, footnotes, and end notes?

In general, if you have fields, footnotes, or end notes in your original text file, those will not show up in i publish.


What if there's no Spelling option on the menu?

You may be in outline view, switch back to document view, and try again. You can't check your spelling in outline view, because it doesn't show you all of your text.

At the bottom of your screen, click the Document tab.


What if i publish crashes when you run Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Exchange?

If your program crashes when running i publish with Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Exchange, you may need to change the virtual memory setting for Windows.

1.	Click the Windows Start button.

2.	Point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.

3.	Double-click System.

4.	Click the Performance tab.

5.	Under Advanced Settings, click Virtual Memory.

6.	Make sure that "Let Windows Manage My Virtual Memory Settings (Recommended)" is selected.

This allows Windows to automatically shrink or grow the virtual memory based on usage.


What if nothing happens when you choose Publish to Printer?

You need to be in document view to print your document.

If you're in outline view, click the Document tab at the bottom of the screen.


i publish minimum system requirements

486 or faster processor

16 MB RAM (32 MB recommended)

Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0 (but not Windows 3.x or the Macintosh)

65 MB hard disk space

SVGA Monitor (800 x 600 and high color) recommended

Mouse or equivalent pointing device

Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.02 or later recommended

How do you get this version?


What if you can't drag text or pictures from a program and drop it into i publish?

The program may not work with the drag and drop feature, or the feature may be turned off. In that case, all you have to do is turn it on.

How do you do that in Microsoft Word?


What if you can't drag text from Microsoft Word and drop it into i publish?

If Microsoft Word's drag and drop feature is turned off, you cannot drag text out of Microsoft Word and drop it into your i publish document. To fix this:

1.	On the Microsoft Word Tools menu, click Options.

2.	Click the Edit tab.

3.	Make sure that "Drag-and-Drop Text Editing" is checked.

4.	Click OK.


What if you pasted text in i publish and nothing happened?

You may have tried to paste a lot of text into a component that could only hold a small amount of text. Try selecting a component that can hold more text (has a larger box), and try pasting the text again.

Or, the text may not have gotten copied or cut, so it can't be pasted. Try copying or cutting the text again.


What if your tab stops used to look right, but now they don't?

You may have switched your layout. If you switch from a 2-column layout to a 3-column layout, some of your tab stops may not be able to fit within the new column width. Try switching back to your previous layout.

How?

The Agenda document is formatted using tab stops, so if you change your layout to one with more columns, the tab stops will not look right. If this is the problem, switch back to the original layout.

Or, you may have changed your font scheme so that the font is larger, the tab stop positions may not be right for the new font. Try switching to a different font scheme.

How?


What if your text is too small?

The font scheme you're using may not suit your document. Try switching to a different font scheme.

How?

Or, if you have a lot of text or pictures on a page, i publish automatically handles most situations by reducing the size of the text or pictures.

However, you can get to a point where i publish has to reduce your text to a font size that is smaller than you want. The reason this can happen is that i publish can't break some components across two pages, because that wouldn't look professional.

How can you tell when this happens, and how do you fix it?


You're not sure how a word is spelled

If you know how to spell part of a word, but not the entire word, type the portion of the word you're certain of. Then, make sure there is no checkmark in the Find Whole Words Only box before you begin your word search.


Ways to search more efficiently

Do any of the following:

To find a specific word, but ignore instances of that word within other words (for example, to find let but ignore letter), click the Find Whole Words Only box.

To find text that matches the exact combination of capital and small letters you typed in the Find box, click the Match Case box.


Prevent i publish from stopping at words, abbreviations, or acronyms that you don't want to change

To prevent i publish from stopping at a particular word or abbreviation each time it's found, click Add when the word appears in the Not In Dictionary box. (This adds the word to your custom dictionary. As long as you're using the same custom dictionary, i publish will never stop on that word again.)


Why are there red boxes around some of your components?

In some cases, when too much text, pictures, or too many components are placed on a page, i publish has to do some work to attempt to fit them on the page.

When your page is very full, and one of the Fit Status meters (at the bottom of the screen) is in the red, i publish draws a thin red line around all components that may be contributing to the fit problem.

Note: If your page is so full that i publish can't accommodate the information, your text or picture may be clipped. In these cases, i publish draws a red box around that component, regardless of whether you have the option (below) turned off.

To turn this option off:

1.	On the Edit menu, click Options.

2.	Under General, click When Document Is Overfit, Highlight Contributing Components.

3.	Click OK.

How can you tell when your document is overfit?

What should you do when your document is overfit?

When is fitting an issue?


What if i publish is slow after you change your document?

If i publish is taking too long to lay out your document, change the fit quality to Draft as you create your document, and then change it to Production when you're ready to print.

1.	On the Edit menu, click Options.

2.	Under Fit Quality, click the option you want:

Production precisely fits everything on the page. (Note: This option may make page layout slower.)

Proof lays out your page faster than Product, but slower than Draft.

Draft lays out the page quickly, but isn't as precise as Production or Proof.

3.	Click OK.


What if the text in your report is very small?

If you add a lot of text to the Document Title component, i publish scales the font size of all of the text in the document. So, the point size of your body text may become too small. Try any of the following:

Edit your title to make it shorter, and then click the main body text so that i publish can lay out your report again.

Split up your title into:

Main title—Put this in the Document Title component.

Subtitle—Put this in the Subtitle component.

The Subtitle component uses a smaller font, so it can accommodate more text than the Document Title component.

Split up your title into:

Main title—Put this in the Document Title component.

Subtitle—Put this in the body text of your report, using a paragraph style: Heading 1, Section Head, or Deck Lead.

How do you apply a paragraph style?


What if your text is clipped?

Some components, like pull quotes and sidebars, can only hold a certain amount of text. If you add more text than it can hold, your text will be clipped, and i publish will draw a red box around it (indicating that it is too full). To fix this, try any of the following:

Edit your text.

Try changing the level of your graphic effects scheme. Or, try a different graphic effects, paragraph, or font scheme.

How do you change the level of a graphic effects scheme?

How do you change a scheme?

Try a different layout that gives more room to the component.

How?


What if there is too much white space next to your picture?

If you add a picture that is very tall and narrow, i publish places it in the picture placeholder, but you may have a lot of white space next to the picture. To reduce the amount of white space:

Reduce the height of your picture.

How?

Use a different picture.


What if there is a red box just around your picture?

If you add a picture that is very tall and narrow, i publish may not be able to accommodate it. If it's larger than will fit in your document, i publish draws a red box around it to tell you that you need to do one of the following:

Reduce the height of your picture.

How?

Use a different picture.


What if your Kodak PhotoCD picture is rotated?

i publish brings in photos from a CD as is; i publish has no way of knowing that you want a different side to be the top of the picture. So, if the image is rotated in your PhotoCD viewer, it will still be rotated in i publish.

To fix this, import the photo into a graphics program, rotate it, and then save it.

What picture formats are supported?


What if your Web page doesn't print well to a black and white printer?

Some of the Web layouts have a bold background that looks great online. However, if you print it to a black and white printer, the printed background may be too dark. Black and white printers substitute black or dark gray for intense colors, so your Web page background may print very dark.

To fix this:

1.	Temporarily publish your Web pages using a different color scheme, such as Parchment with Black and White.

How?

2.	Print your Web page.

3.	Publish your Web pages again using the color scheme that you want for your Web site.

How?


What if you got an out of disk space message while printing?

Were you printing directly to a printer?

When you print your file, the printer software (driver) creates a temporary file on your computer's hard disk, and then the printer software sends the temporary file to the printer, using your network or your printer cable. When the complete temporary file is sent to the printer, the temporary file is removed from your hard disk.

If you don't have enough available disk space to create the temporary file, the printer software will display an error message. If disk space is the problem, delete any unnecessary files to create more available hard disk space.

You can also refer to your printer documentation for details.

Were you printing to a file (to print on an outside printer)?

When you print to a file, i publish uses the printer software (driver) to create a file:

.prn file, if you're using a PCL printer.

.ps file, if you're using a PostScript printer.

If you don't have enough available disk space to create the file, the printer software will display an error message. If disk space is the problem, delete any unnecessary files to create more available hard disk space.

You can also refer to your printer documentation for details.

Want to know more about printing your document on an outside printer?

For additional details about printing, click Index and type Print, and then press ENTER.


What if you got an error message while installing SPRYNET from the i publish CD?

SPRYNET is an Internet service provider (ISP). You can install the SPRYNET software from the i publish CD, but it requires that your system be setup for Dial-Up Networking.

For details about how to change your system, see the SPRYNET Readme file located on the i publish CD:

D:\SPRYNET\CD\Readme.txt.

Search the SPRYNET Readme file for "DIAL-UP".


About importing HTML files into i publish

When you import an HTML file into i publish, all of the text imports, but i publish cannot import the pictures or style sheet information. The reason i publish can't import the pictures is that HTML files include graphics using a file reference, such as:

<IMG SRC="../art/art.gif">

i publish has no way of knowing if the picture file is on your computer, or if you got the HTML file from the Web, and the picture does not exist on your computer.

To include the text and pictures from an HTML Web page:

1.	Import the HTML file.

Where is the HTML file stored?

2.	Import the picture.

Where is the picture file stored?


Why can't you change the colors of a picture inside i publish?

i publish is designed to lay out your text and pictures. To change the color or color palette of a picture, use the program that created it, or another picture editing program. Then, add the picture to your i publish document again.


Why can't you resize an intelligent component?

Because i publish is an automatic page layout program, the size and location of every object on the page is determined by the layout you choose. This is your guarantee of an attractive finished document. If you don't like the size or location of a picture, try another layout that appeals to you—there are lots to choose from.

Using Adjust Picture (Design menu), you can change the emphasis of a picture—thereby changing the picture's size.

How?

This applies only to pictures that are within wrapping text.


What if you don't want lines between columns?

The lines between columns come from the graphic effects scheme. Do one of the following:

Use a different graphic effects scheme that doesn't have rules.

Set the graphic effects scheme to Off.

How?


What if your report text or logo changed after installing i publish 2.0?

i publish 2.0 uses content linking, so it automatically ensures that your cover page title, report title, and header text all match.

If your title changed to something you don't want, simply change the title anywhere, and i publish will automatically update that information in all areas of your document.

What if you don't want the text on your cover page and title page to match?


What if you don't want the text or logo on your cover page and title page to match?

i publish automatically makes the text and logo on your cover page, title page, and header match.

If you want them to differ: first change the layout of your document to use only a title page, and then create a different cover page document.

Change your document's layout to use only a title page

1.	On the toolbar, click the Layout button, shown below.

2.	At the bottom of the list, click Custom Layout.

3.	Under Cover Treatment, uncheck Cover Page.

Create a different cover page document

1.	On the File menu, click Create New Document.

2.	Click Cover Page, and then click Next.

3.	Click a template, and then click Next.

4.	Click a scheme set, and then click Finish.


What if two letters are dropped capped?

Anytime you have a two letter word, i publish automatically applies the drop cap formatting to both.

If you don't like it, choose a paragraph scheme that doesn't use drop cap formatting.

How?


What if my quotes or apostrophes are dropped capped?

Anytime a quote or an apostrophe is one of the first two letters of a paragraph, i publish automatically applies the drop cap formatting to it.

If you don't like it, choose a paragraph scheme that doesn't use drop cap formatting.

How?


How do you import Microsoft Word '97 files?

Currently, i publish cannot import Microsoft Word '97 files. To import one of these files, save it in Word 6.0/95 format.

1.	Open your Microsoft Word '97 document.

2.	On the Word '97 File menu, click Save As.

3.	For Save As Type, click "Word 6.0/95."

4.	Type a name and folder for the document, and then click Save.

5.	Add the file to your document.

How?


What if one of my brochure panels takes up 2/3 of the page width?

By default, a brochure has 6 panels. If you delete one of the inside panels, the last panel will take up 2/3 of the page width.

To add it back:

1.	Point to the panel that you want to be to the left of the new panel, and press the right mouse button.

2.	On the popup menu, click Insert Component, and then click Panel.

3.	Switch to outline view.

4.	At the bottom of the outline, click [image] next to "Panel" to expand it.

5.	Point to a Panel Block, and press the right mouse button.

6.	On the popup menu, click Insert Component, and then click Picture, Text Block, or Sidebar.

7.	Switch back to document view, and then add your text and pictures.


What if the tabs in your Web page or onscreen presentation don't look right?

When i publish converts your document to a Web page or onscreen presentation, it uses a fixed width space for each tab, because HTML doesn't use tabs. If your tabs don't align well in your online document, try this:

1.	Set multiple tab stops at regular intervals, such as: .5", 1.0", 1.5", and so on.

If you've set tab stops for multiple paragraphs, apply the same tab stops to all of the paragraphs.

2.	Publish your document again as a Web page or an onscreen presentation.

How?

Note: The Agenda document is formatted using tab stops, so it may take some tweaking before your document looks the way you want as a Web page or an onscreen presentation.


What if you changed the font size for a Banner or Kicker component, but you don't see a change?

Try any of the following:

Try scaling each component that makes up the Banner or Kicker.

How?

Try reducing the amount of text in the component. i publish may be having trouble fitting the component in the allocated space.

What else can you do to make a component fit?


What if you changed the emphasis of your newsletter picture, but you don't see a change?

If your layout has pictures at the left or right (not within columns of text), then i publish keeps the pictures the same size, but places the pictures in the order of emphasis. The picture with the most emphasis is placed first in the document, the picture with the next most emphasis is placed second, and so on.

If you want your pictures to be different sizes, under "Columns and Picture Placement," choose "Pictures Within Text Columns" in the Custom Layout dialog box.

What's an onscreen presentation?


Tips: Advantages of doing onscreen presentations

When you do a presentation using a 35mm slide carousel or an overhead projector, you need to factor in a lot of lead time to print or develop your slides.

With an onscreen presentation, you can change your presentation up to the last minute. For example, you can customize your presentation by adding your client's company name. This personal touch could lead to future sales!


Tips: Writing your presentation

How do you create an onscreen presentation?

Use these ideas to organize your presentation

Beginning of presentation

Tell them what you're going to tell them—Give an overview of your presentation.

¼ into presentation

Present your key points. Make sure that you follow the outline you established in your presentation.

½ into presentation

Present the small details. Again, follow your outline.

¾ into presentation

Tell them what you told them—Start wrapping up and hit your key points again.

Ending of presentation

Question—Leave a little time at the end for audience questions.

Other tips to look professional

Spelling and proofing

This might be the most important step towards looking professional. Check your spelling and have someone else read through it to be sure there are not grammatical errors.

Keep it short

Many presenters make the mistake of including every detail on the presentation slides. Just hit the highlights on your slides so that your audience doesn't spend a lot of time reading instead of listening.


Tips: Preparing for your presentation

Presentation notes—Print out your slides, and then make notes on them about what additional information you want to cover. You may not need this, but it will make you feel calm to know the information is available if you need it.

Preview your presentation—Make sure you run all the way through your presentation to be sure it's just the way you want it.

How?

Practice makes perfect—Try practicing in front of a mirror to help you become comfortable. Practice hand gestures, walking away from the podium, and pointing at the screen.

Audience handouts—Print out your slides and make copies for your audience so that your audience can focus on your message. (This also makes you look very professional.)


Tips: Giving your presentation

How do you view your document as an onscreen presentation?

Use these ideas to prepare and give your presentation

Arrive early—Make sure you have plenty of time to set up your computer and test it before people arrive.

Talk slowly—Try talking more slowly than you think you should; you'll end up talking at normal speed.

Rely on experts—If you're asked a question that you don't know, ask the audience for help. You don't have to be the only expert.

Relax—You've prepared and practiced, so you will be able to make the impact you want.
