- ---=== Professional Calc Read-Me File ===---
-
- Please read this document thoroughly. It contains information
- which was not available at the time the manual was printed.
-
- ========================================================================
-
- 1. Using Files from Office Calc or The Advantage
-
- Load all your macros into Professional Calc, then save them back
- out again. Although at this point they will be unreadable by
- Advantage and Office Calc, they will be in the new format, and will
- load faster into Professional Calc. Also, any duplicate names will be
- automatically deleted by Professional Calc.
-
- It is suggested that all Advantage or Office Calc spreadsheets be loaded
- into Professional Calc, and then saved again in Professional Calc format.
-
- Professional Calc spreadsheet files and those of Advantage 1.1 and
- Office Calc can be shared. However, if you save a file in
- Professional Calc, load it into Advantage or Office Calc and
- save it out, then some information unique to Professional Calc may be
- lost.
-
- When loading Advantage files, its a good idea to run "Optimize"
- (Commands/Optimize) on them after they've loaded.

- 2. New Features
-
- When selecting a font from the font requester, all fonts which have
- corresponding .metric files will appear with a `P' beside the font name.
- If you are using a PostScript printer, it is recommended that you use
- these fonts.
-
- The function LROUND has been added to aid in Lotus 1-2-3 compatibility.
- The parameters for this functions are the same as for the Lotus LROUND
- function. If you are not using Lotus in conjunction with Professional
- Calc, you should use the ROUND function, discussed on page 13-7 or the
- manual.
-
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- A new tooltype has been added to the Professional Calc icon:
-
- PAGESIZE=size
-
- where size is Standard, Legal, A3, A4, A5, or B5
-
- This sets the output page size to be used for PostScript printing.
-
- Remember that even if you run Professional Calc from the Shell or CLI,
- the tooltypes are still read from the icon unless you override them
- with command line options.
-
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Graphs can now be saved from Professional Calc. When a spreadsheet is
- saved, if there are any graphs currently open, they will be saved
- as part of the spreadsheet. When the spreadsheet is next loaded,
- the graphs will be automatically created.
