2593.0. "Right margin in compiled WPS-PLUS templates" by ADOVS9::SYMON (inFamy Soon) Tue Apr 20 1993 14:12

    When I merge with a WPS-PLUS template (BLPW) which has been compiled
    into the CMTXL, the right margin does not appear in the ruler of the
    output document.  When I merge using the non-compiled version, the
    right margin is there.
    
    Is this a known problem or am I going mad?  I can't find any references
    to it in this or the WPS-PLUS conference.
    
    
    Cheers,
    Fiona.

2593.1Ascii input file?AIMTEC::BUTLER_TTue Apr 20 1993 18:496
    Fiona,
    
    Is the input an ascii file? (see note 2371 in the v2.4 conference)

    Thank you, I read this discussion and it looks like I will have to
    adopt the same solution for different reasons.
    
    When my template is compiled into the TXL, MERGE finds it OK, and all
    other WPS-PLUS attributes (bolding, underlining, tab and wrap stops,
    etc) are present in the output document, EXCEPT for the right margin. 
    If it were being treated as an ASCII template, I would have expected
    everything to be lost.  (Even so, I checked to make sure there is not
    also an ASCII version of the same name lurking around and being picked
    up by mistake.)
    
    So it looks like there is still no point compiling BLPW templates. :-(
