| 116.1 | Sure! Look in the field test docset. | VAXUUM::CORMAN | | Tue Mar 17 1987 09:32 | 13 |
| There are currently two books that you should look at to get info.
on the various doctype styles. The first is the VAX DOCUMENT Design
Samples, which explains each doctype, shows a sample output of each,
and then shows the input file (with all the tags) used to produce
each sample.
The second book is the VAX DOCUMENT User's Guide, Part 2. This book
describes each doctype in detail, listing the available tags for
each. It has a complete alphabetic list of the doctype-specific
tags for reference.
Both of these books were released for Field Test (BL7), and are
being updated for the *real* release of the product (that is, Version
1).

Thanks! I looked around a bit and found a documentation directory:
NEWDOC::[SDML.BL7] The reference to this requested access only
from 17:00 to 09:00, and that you read A.READ_ME_FIRST first.
Thanks again.

| 116.3 | Is it written in invisible ink? | COSBY::ROMBERG | Kathy Romberg DTN 276-8189 | Thu Mar 19 1987 09:59 | 9 |
|
I found all the books in this directory except for VAX DOCUMENT
Design Samples. Where does this book exist? A.READ_ME_FIRST doesn't
even mention it.
There's also another book mentioned in the release notes - VAX
DOCUMENT Doctype Designer's Guide. No could find.

The design samples book is available in limited supply, hard-copy
only. Send MAIL to VAXUUM::OTTE if you have a real need. We'll try
to put it online, but havent' the time for it now (It's hard to
make into 1 LN3 file because each chapter uses a different doctype!)
The Administrator's Guide describes all the design parameters for
each of the standard doctypes.

| 116.5 | They're coming shortly. | VAXUUM::CORMAN | | Fri Mar 20 1987 09:15 | 13 |
| Well, I guess A.READ_ME_FIRST should explain that the Design Samples
book is not available online. The best way to get a copy of it (inside
DEC) is to contact Pat Goodine (STAR::GOODINE)... she has some
hardcopies available for the asking. This book will probably be
made available online for Version 1 (I hope...what a drag to deal
in paper :-] ).
As far as the VAX DOCUMENT Doctype Designer's Guide...I wasn't aware
that it was mentioned in the release notes (can you point to the
page?). This is actually the new name for the old Administrator's
Guide, which came with the FT docset. The new name is more appropriate
for the book. It is also being updated for V.1; is not available
in its new form just yet.

| 116.6 | STAR:: <> BAXTER:: | JAWS::STRYKER | Stew Stryker | Thu Mar 26 1987 12:41 | 2 |
| By trial, error, and ELF, I determined that Pat Goodine is actually
at BAXTER::GOODINE, rather than STAR::GOODINE as listed.

| 116.7 | <DOCTYPE> List | TOPDOC::GREENBERG | | Fri Mar 27 1987 13:38 | 10 |

Thank you all for your help.
I have also found an abbreviated list on pages 13-45 and 13-46 of the
User's Guide, Part 1. The tables on these pages describe the <DOCTYPE>
tag and list in summary the characteristics of the various doctypes.
Very good info.

| 116.8 | Could we get the pieces on-line? | LOGOS::GREGOIRE | Phyllis Gregoire-Marks | Wed Apr 15 1987 13:18 | 7 |
| In reply to Patti in .4: Could the separate chapters be made available
in LN3 form? That way we get it on-line and you guys would have
less paper shuffling to do.
Thanks,
Phyllis
