370.0. "HELP, unidentifiable errors" by TLE::CHAPMAN () Mon Aug 20 1990 17:36

    I am trying to build an online book (builds ok in hardcopy) with a
    special design. Without going into the details of the different
    design, has anyone seen the following error messages?
    
    
%TEX-W-UNDEFINEDCS, Undefined control sequence

%TEX-I-FILENAME, 'IPSE2$:[CHAPMAN.CIS.BASE-DOCUMENT]CIS-FM.TEX;10'
-TEX-I-ONPAGE, on page [6] 

That error happens numerous times in each of the files that makes up the
    document. I don't define or use that control sequence.
    
    
    The following errors appear several times per page in the table of
    contents. I don't do anything special to the TOC.

370.1You need to define the control sequencesVAXUUM::GRANTI've saved $2623.50 since I quit smoking.Mon Aug 20 1990 18:1514
    What TeX is telling you is what you've already stated.  You haven't
    defined those control sequences.  The control sequence
    \onlineadjustvoffset is used to adjust the space at the top of the
    'page' to correct online paragraph spacing.  The \titlepageTOCtext
    control sequence has been used to provide the string "Title Page" to
    the table of contents.  You might try the following:
    
    \def\onlineadjustvoffset{%
    \strut\vskip-.58in}%
    
    \def\titlepageTOCtext{Title Page}%

    But I don't explicitly use \onlineadjustvoffset. I think it should be
    defined by the software that uses it (unless it's documented somewhere
    that I should define it?). Thanks for the work-around, but I'd like to
    get a real fix if possible.
370.3They're not 'workarounds'VAXUUM::GRANTI've saved $2625.00 since I quit smoking.Tue Aug 21 1990 09:428
    The released version of the online doctype's .DESIGN file does define
    it.  Your .DESIGN file needs to define it also.  What I gave you wasn't
    a workaround, it was the real definition of both control sequences. 
    You've just happened to find a couple of the 'gotchas' that get you
    when you modify a doctype.
    
    Good luck,
