- III. Pertinent Version 3.0 Operating Information
- -----------------------------------------------------------
-
- 1. Selecting Index All into a Full Text Document Group may
- cause an application error to occur if you run out of available
- disk space. Ensure you have sufficient disk space available
- before selecting Index All on Full Text Groups.
-
- 2. In order to view embedded graphics in word processing files
- you must be in either Normal or Preview mode. You cannot view
- embedded graphics in a text document in Draft mode.
-
- 3. If you rotate the view of a section in a multi-section
- File Magic Plus document, in order to retain that rotated view
- for later display, you must save it before you move to another
- section. In File Magic Plus, unlike File Magic Expert, the
- current view is maintained independently for each section of
- a multi-section document.
-
- 4. When you use the Separate & Merge utility to Merge entire
- Super Groups and you specify Overwrite Current Item, the
- system will overwrite all the existing Document Groups in
- the Super Group and replace them with the Document Groups to
- be merged.
-
- 5. The Find Next and Find Previous right mouse button menu items
- are only valid when searching for text within the current
- document. File Magic Plus does not currently support searching
- for text across multiple documents. Considering for possible
- future enhancement.
-
- 6. Using a Full text search routine to search for text across
- multiple Super Groups may cause inconsistent operating results
- to occur. Consider searching for the text within each
- individual Super Group as separate steps.
-
- 7. When using the HP DeskJet 550C color printer to print black
- & white images, you must add the following line to the WIN.INI
- file's [STATDLL] section.
-
- PageScan=No
-
- 8. The following five file formats require specific filename
- extensions to exist for proper "auto-sense" identification to
- occur. They are:
-
- Format Required Extension
- ----------------------------------

- 9. The system currently supports the generation of full text
- indices from files in the following formats. They are:

-
- 10. During installation of File Magic Plus Professional or for
