Online Manual -English, Spanish, Chinese, ...

Post by Dave Crosby »

:shock: It is embarrassing to admit to not seeing what was plainly in front of me.

The Online Manual has been available for some time. Go to http://high-logic.com/ and Look in the middle of the page.
There it is! We need to bookmark the location at:

http://www.high-logic.com/manual/index.html


If you prefer another language than English, Note the reference to Babel Fish from AltaVista on the High Logic Homepage.

Go to: http://babelfish.altavista.com/ and paste in the manual URL

Hard Copy Manual

Post by DSIGRIS »

I enjoy the ability to sit and read a Manual will sitting on the sofa - and not connected to any computer.

How do I go about printing the Manual? Is it nothing more than printing the Help file, or is it more to it?

Dick.

If you downloaded Font Creator 5 you also downloaded the PDF manual. You can print out a hard copy from that.

Printed Manual

I just noticed that I downloaded FCP 4 and not FCP 5, and there was no .pdf file.

I will download the new one and see if I get the manual.

Manual is in the Help Files

The Manual is part of each version.
Click on the Help file, select Print, and then send the document to your printer or Adobe Distiller.

Manual

Post by DSIGRIS »

I am looking for a printed manual and not an interactive on-line manual.

I have no desire to learn how to use your product by "poking" thru the Help file, or walking thru it topic by topic.

I is very difficult to sit and read your material on the sofa without a computer.

Is there a way to print the contents of your on-line manual as a book?

Manual

Post by DSIGRIS »

My apologies for not noticing that the .pdf manual was added to the folder in the Program Files - 120 pages.

And for an added bonus, this is one of the best manuals I have ever seen. Each page has full color screen images, great page design with very pleasing headers and footers.

Not sure if you used this material to create the Help file with a "Help Generator product", but I will use this as an example of what a printed manual should look like.

Great job.

Ah, Richard, how you “Newbies” embarrass the rest of us!

Right you are. Use Windows Explorer to open Program Files, High Logic, and find:
