INSTALLATION ------------
There are two optional ways to install the progam: 1) Use the Grunch program to install the program automatically. It will also allow Ambient to recognise RNOPublisher document files and open them with the program when double-clicked (installs own document filetype). 2) Install it manually by copying the whole directory anywhere you want, and configure Ambient to recognise RNOPublisher documents by copying the provided filetype to the corresponding path in your SYS: partition and modifying the command path in the x-rnopublisher file to point to where the program is located.
USAGE NOTES -----------
- Remember to click the "Apply changes" button after any modifications to objects. - Double-clicking an object moves it one step forward in the layer stack. - Move several objects at once by multi-selecting them from the object list. - Document title + author fields are saved to both RNOPublisher and PDF files. - Auto saving only works on a document that has been created and saved. - Templates are stored in the Templates directory in the program directory, and users can modify them or create new ones from them. - Qualifier keys when handling objects with the mouse: Shift . . - Constrains object movement/resizing to vertical direction Ctrl . . . - Constrains object movement/resizing to horizontal direction Alt . . . - Retains the aspect ratio when resizing an object - "Hidden" keyboard shortcuts in addition to marked shorctuts: Esc . . . - Abort dragging or resizing of an object F1 . . . . - Cut a page F2 . . . . - Copy a page F3 . . . . - Paste a page F5 . . . . - Cut an object F6 . . . . - Copy an object F7 . . . . - Paste an object PageUp . . - Jump to the previous page PageDown . - Jump to the next page Home . . . - Jump to the first page End . . . - Jump to the last page
