We converted the DECwrite documentation into Bookreader
format. The hardcopies of this books were formatted with
the doctypes dw_end and dw_hand.
The problem:
In Bookreader output the tag <reference>(section
symbol-name) includes the identifying reference and the
section number (e.g. "Section 4.3"). In PostScript
output the same reference includes only the section
title. We have added the word "Section" before the
reference for hardcopy output and have now - with the
same source file - the online output "Section Section
4.3".
To achieve the goal "having the same source file for
both PostScript and Bookreader output" we added the tag
<unnumbered_heads> after the tag <profile>. The result:
The bookreader creates references with section titles
(references to chapters are okay) but no hotspots to the
sections!
Is this a bug? Any help?
We are using VAX Document V1.2-A and
Bookreader 27-October-1989 baselevel
Thanks,
Eva

Eva, These problems with the <REFERENCE> tag have been fixed in the latest version, V1.2-B. Wayne | |||||
| 284.2 | hot spot around whole sentence | ZORBA::BURACK | Not Fade Away | Fri Apr 27 1990 14:48 | 20 |
Hi,
I have another hotspot problem (figured I wouldn't start another note).
I have the following in my .SDML file:
<p>
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
See the description of $X and $Y in the section
<quote>(<reference>(int_xyspecvar\text)) in this chapter and
<reference>(intro_io_chap) for more information.
In the online version the symbols are translated okay, but the hotspot
goes around the whole sentence. It lets me go to the section reference,
but not the chapter. I think I have a few more of these.
Any ideas?

This sounds very much like a problem that has been discussed in note
255 of this conference. If that discussion doesn't answer your
questions, let me know and I'll check into it some more.

| 284.4 | same problem | ZORBA::BURACK | Not Fade Away | Mon Apr 30 1990 12:56 | 8 |
Hi,
I guess that answers my problem. Sounds like the same problem - except
I am using \text and not \full.
Is the solution to wait for the next version?
