DISTRIBUTION POINTS
===================
SOFTWARE KITS AND DOCUMENTATION ARE AVAILABLE FROM THESE SITES:
Home base (ZKO, Nashua, NH):
CLOSET::KITS_:[DOCUMENT.V12B.SOFTWARE]
CLOSET::KITS_:[DOCUMENT.V12B.BOOKS]
Greater Maynard (MLO):
NEWS::CUP$KITS:[DOCUMENT.V12B.SOFTWARE]
NEWS::CUP$KITS:[DOCUMENT.V12B.BOOKS]
Europe (UTO):
IJSAPL::KIT_:[DOCUMENT.V12B.SOFTWARE]
IJSAPL::KIT_:[DOCUMENT.V12B.BOOKS]
Please copy from the site most accessible to you. Use FTSV to copy files, if
possible. Copy after business hours at the kit site, if you can.
Since this kit combines several previous kits, it has grown considerably.
To install all components of VAX DOCUMENT at one time, you may need up to 23,900
free blocks on your system disk (during installation) and also up to 23,900 free
blocks on the target disk (if different from the system disk). RAGS and UTOX
will be installed on your system disk.
The savesets are
DOCWTK010.A required for *any* installation
.B, .C, .D, .E for VAX DOCUMENT
.F for UTOX
.G, .H for RAGS
If you don't want to install all three products at once, you may copy only the
savesets you need. To make that easier, the [...SOFTWARE] directory on each
distribution node contains a command file, DOCWTK-COPY.COM, which you may run to
specify which components you want. This will set up and submit a job that will
copy (with FTSV, if available) the savesets you need.
See the conference CLOSET::DOCUMENT, note #2737, for a description of
DOCWTK-COPY.COM and other installation matters.
INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE
=======================
Installation instructions are part of the Internal Notes manual. There are no
longer separate guides for installing and using the internal enhancements. This
guide is available in the [...BOOKS] directory as DOC_V12B_INTERNAL_NOTES (in
several output forms).
This kit incorporates tools that have had various means of installation and
support in the past. Some of the logical names that supported older versions
may interfere with IVP and use of these tools. IF YOUR ACCOUNT EXECUTES
PROCEDURES THAT REDEFINE THE FOLLOWING LOGICALS TO LOCAL DIRECTORIES, YOU MAY
NEED TO DEASSIGN THEM BEFORE INSTALLING AND USING VAX DOCUMENT V1.2-B:
doc$bookr_fonts, doc$bookr_tools, dvc$bookrshr, doc$message,
tag$translateshr
If you have LSE installed on your system and wish to install LSE support for VAX
DOCUMENT, you must also have a license installed for LSE!
VAX DOCUMENT REQUIRES A LICENSE
===============================
In order to run VAX DOCUMENT (including the IVP) you must load a valid Product
Authorization Key (PAK). If you don't already have this PAK (which is the same
one used for V1.2/V1.2-A), follow one of these procedures:
Users in the U.S.: type VTX PAK at the DCL prompt;
Users in Europe: type VTX ISPAK at the DCL prompt;
Users in GIA: send request via e-mail to AKOV11::HAMEL_WHITE.
See topic 13.* in CLOSET::DOCUMENT for information about PAKs.
MAINTAINING MULTIPLE BASELEVELS ON SAME SYSTEM
==============================================
In the [...SOFTWARE] directory is a DCL command file, BASELEVEL.COM. This is a
DCL command file you can use (with appropriate local modifications) to switch
between two or more versions of VAX DOCUMENT. The file contains the
description, instructions, and warnings on how you might use it. Please
approach this function cautiously -- but be heartened by the fact that there are
several sites that have used this program successfully.
BASELEVEL.COM has not changed since the V1.2/V1.2-A release in mid-1989.

GETTING HELP
============
VAX DOCUMENT:
Discuss USE of V1.2-B in CLOSET::DOCUMENT.
Report INSTALLATION problems in note #2737.
Report BUGS via the QAR system described below.
Discuss problems specific to ONLINE DOCTYPES & BOOKREADER SUPPORT
in CLOSET::ONLINE_BOOKBUILDING.
RAGS:
Discuss use of RAGS in CLOSET::DOC_GRAPHICS.
Report bugs via QAR.
UTOX:
Discuss use of UTOX in CLOSET::UTOX.
Report bugs there, too.
To access CUP Engineering's QAR system for internal users only,
SET HOST CLOSET
Username: QAR_INTERNAL
Password: QAR
Select the database V1.2 for VAX DOCUMENT bugs (for V1.2, V1.2-A or V1.2-B),
or select RAGS for RAGS bugs. There is no QAR system for UTOX. See the QAR
documentation in the [...BOOKS] directory for details.
We recommend that you copy and use the base User Manuals (Vols. 1 & 2) and the
V1.2-B Internal Notes to cut down on delays getting answers that may be at your
fingertips. The DOC012 release notes (for the V1.2 base kit) also contain a lot
of information.

270.1 | Insufficient virtual memory on VMS T5.4
| MJFITZ::FITZELL | put nifty saying here | Wed Mar 07 1990 15:39 | 9 |
| Due to a change in one of the RTL routines in VMS 5.4 the Device converter for
Bookreader output is getting a virtual memory error. This has been Qared and is
being looked into. In the mean time A converter is available that side steps the
problem. NOTE it only happens in VMS 5.4 so only copy it if you are running 5.4
The file is in CLOSET::KITS_:[DOCUMENT.V12B.SOFTWARE]DVC$BOOKRSHR.EXE

270.2 | Thanks... | CHEST::ALFORD | Ice to see you..... | Wed Apr 11 1990 10:30 | 12 |
|
I am sure I saw a patch some where for upgrading V1.1 to understand
and compile the online stuff...
Could someone give me a pointer to it ?
Unfortunately during the system re-build that was necessary after the
Crescent Fire, this patch got left out, so I'm having to go through all
this again :-)
BTW I know that V1.2-B is a wonderful and recommended version, but V1.0
is the version for EASE and I can't do anything about it !

270.3 | | CRBOSS::LEMONS | And we thank you for your support. | Fri Jul 13 1990 15:03 | 3 |
| Fyi, the RAGS.DECW$BOOK in the .BOOKS subdirectory is an old version.

270.4 | coding for BOOKREADER | COOKIE::DUNCAN | | Tue Aug 28 1990 17:09 | 9 |
|
I need to know about coding for the BOOKREADER. Is the file I need
DOC_V12B_INTERNAL_NOTES.*? If not, which one should I copy?
We're setting new records for time required to get doc sets from the
SDC out here in Colorado.
Thanks,
Donna

VAX DOCUMENT V2.0 -- Part 4: Field Test Writer's Toolkit T2.0
*** Digital Internal Use Only ***
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The VAX DOCUMENT Writer's Toolkit T2.0 (DOCWTKFT020) is available from
CLOSET::KITS_:[DOCUMENT.T20.INTERNAL_VERSION] [software]
CLOSET::KITS_:[DOCUMENT.T20.BOOKS] [documentation]
In and near Europe, use
IJSAPL::KIT_:[DOCUMENT.T20.INTERNAL_VERSION]
IJSAPL::KIT_:[DOCUMENT.T20.BOOKS]
(^-- no 'S')
This incorporates VAX DOCUMENT T2.0-1 plus UTOX. VAX DOCUMENT T2.0-1 is
- the external field test VAX DOCUMENT T2.0 (which now includes
the graphics editor), plus
- the usual internal extensions (MEMO doctype, Digital logo,
internal tags and language strings) and some more bug fixes
(this is why it uses the version suffix '-1')
The preceding notes about getting PAKs via VTX apply to this one, too.
** Please report T2.0 installation and usage problems in topic 7.*.
** This is for Digital Internal Use Only.

VAX DOCUMENT Writer's Tool Kit V2.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The VAX DOCUMENT Writer's Tool Kit V2.0 kit is located in
CLOSET::KITS_:[DOCUMENT.V20.INTERNAL_VERSION]DOCWTK020.A thru H
LEZAH::CUP$FILE_TRANSFER:DOCWTK020.A thru H
The documentation is located in
CLOSET::KITS_:[DOCUMENT.V20.BOOKS]DOCWTK_V20_INTERNAL_NOTES.*
LEZAH::CUP$FILE_TRANSFER:DOCWTK_V20_INTERNAL_NOTES.*
In addition to the features of VAX DOCUMENT V2.0, this Writer's Tool
Kit contains
- CUP family doctypes
- SPD doctypes
- MANPAGE doctype/converter
- Internal doctypes: MEMO, DOCTYPE_STT, GLOBAL_STT
- UTOX V3.0-1

internal users
The Writer's Tool Kit has been tested with the major local doctype
kits and can be used for general documentation which requires any
DEC-specific features.
A supplementary CUIP kit, CUPLOCAL020, containing local designs such
as VMSREF, LPAHAND and HARDWARE, is being prepared. It is not yet
available, but will be announced soon in a reply to topic 9 in this
notes file.
Please read the internal notes before installing or using the VAX
DOCUMENT Writer's Tool Kit V2.0.
Please discuss VAX DOCUMENT Writer's Tool Kit V2.0 related questions
and problems in topic 3474.*.
