** Using Freelance Graphics with HP NewWave **
To use Freelance Graphics with HP NewWave, you first need
to install the NewWave Freelance Bridge. To install it on
NewWave version A.03.04 or before:
1) Select the NewWave Office window and then press the
CTRL+ALT+DEL keys.
2) In the NewWave Office window select the Settings -
Installation menu command.
3) In the Install dialog box go to the drive and
directory that contains the Freelance bridge files
and select the FLS.IN$ file, then press OK.
To install on NewWave versions after A.03.04:
1) From the NewWave window select the Settings -
Install Application menu command.
2) In the Install Application dialog box change the
file type to NewWave (IN$) and then go to the drive
and directory where the Freelance bridge files are
located, and then select the FLS.IN$ file and press
the OK button.
FREELANCE GRAPHICS NODE EDITION USERS: Your network
administrator does not need to install the NewWave
Freelance Bridge. You can install the Freelance Bridge
yourself as long as you are connected to the network
drive on which the Freelance Graphics server is installed.
Please note the following when using Freelance Graphics
with HP NewWave:
- Be sure to set your Freelance Graphics presentation
directory to the NewWave directory \HPNWDOS\FLW. By
doing this, new presentation (.PRE) files that you create
in Freelance Graphics (by choosing File New or File Save As)
will automatically be attached as objects in your NewWave
Office window. They will be attached when you close any
presentation object that you opened from within NewWave.
Note, however, that they will only be attached
automatically if you save them to the NewWave directory
\HPNWDOS\FLW. Do NOT save them to the default Freelance
Graphics presentation directory (\FLW\WORK).
Use the DOSFileAttach tool in NewWave to attach any
presentation files that are not automatically attached.
If you do not see your Freelance Graphics files as
objects on the NewWave desktop, this indicates that you
did not specify the correct presentation directory during
installation. To specify the correct directory, in
Freelance Graphics choose Tools User Setup and click
Directories. Then specify the NewWave directory
\HPNWDOS\FLW in the Working text box. Then click OK.
- If you install Freelance Graphics without installing ATM
and then you create a NewWave object and try to open it,
you may see two messages. One informs you about a
mismatch between your ATM fonts and PostScript printer;
the other tells you that you cannot open this object.
To resolve this problem, click OK for each message. Then
install ATM before you proceed to work in Freelance
Graphics and NewWave. See the Freelance Graphics
Installation Guide for more information.
- If you use Freelance Graphics File commands during a
Freelance Graphics session, you may get unexpected
results.
For example, if you choose File New to create a Freelance
Graphics presentation file (.PRE) during a Freelance
Graphics session and then choose File Close to close it,
the presentation file will not be attached as an object
on the NewWave desktop. If this happens, use the NewWave
DOSFileAttach tool to attach that file as an object. See
your NewWave documentation for more information.
Note that it is always recommended that you use the
NewWave Create A New command to create a new object.
If you choose File Close to close the last Freelance
Graphics object during a Freelance Graphics session when
no other files are open, the Freelance Bridge disconnects
from NewWave. If you created any new files during that
session (after closing the last Freelance Graphics object),
you will not receive a NewWave DOS file attach message
when you close Freelance Graphics. As a result, these
files will not be added as objects on the NewWave
desktop. To avoid this situation, close your Freelance
Graphics session each time you finish working on a
presentation file.
If you have created new Freelance Graphics presentation
files while the Freelance Bridge is disconnected, use the
NewWave DOSFileAttach tool to attach these files as
objects on the NewWave desktop. See your NewWave
documentation for more information.
- If you print a Freelance Graphics object using the
NewWave Printers tool, a blank page prints before the
first page of your Freelance Graphics presentation file.
You might also notice a delay between when the blank page
prints and when your presentation prints. Also mote that
the Freelance Graphics presentation file will always
print to the default Windows printer, regardless of which
printer icon you choose in NewWave.
If you experience problems printing your Freelance
Graphics presentation files in NewWave, it may help to
enable the Window Pint Manager by using the Printers
utility in the Windows Control Panel.
You should not use the Tools Save Default Presentation
command in Freelance Graphics to save a default
presentation file. (Normally, in Freelance Graphics you
use this command to make a template for creating new
presentation files.) Instead, NewWave uses a "master" as
a template that you can use to create new objects. See
your NewWave documentation for information on creating
masters for new objects.
- If you place a Freelance Graphics object into a NewWave
compound object (such as NewWave Write or AmiPro), you
will only see the first page of the Freelance Graphics
object. To see a different page, go to the Page Sorter
view in Freelance Graphics and select the page that you
want to see in the NewWave compound object. Move this
page to the upper leftmost position in the Page Sorter
view so that it becomes the first page in your Freelance
Graphics presentation.
- In Freelance Graphics, the NewWave Agent does not record
mouse movements; it only records keystrokes. Since some
Freelance Graphics features are only available through
mouse movements, the use of those features cannot be
recorded by the NewWave Agent. Some of those features
include the Freelance Graphics Toolbox, the rotation of
objects, certain Edit Select commands that require mouse
input (such as Edit Select Touching), and the rotation of
a point on a curve in Edit Points mode. Also note that
no keystrokes will be recorded in Freelance Graphics after
the last Freelance Graphics object is closed.
