1.3 Extended "PDF" help
2) Generate text file
Copy the single-column index generated above (right-justified page numbers) and save it in
a text file (*.TXT).
Example:
MEAW 155
<Search string> <page>
The text file for the PDF call requires the following syntax:
<PDF file name> <ID> <page>
Enter the name of the PDF file (without the language code) at the start of each line.
Example:
840D_PG.PDF MEAW 155
<PDF name> <ID> <page>
3) Define ID numbers
ID numbers unique to each document (e.g., 1...n) must be defined for the search strings.
The ID numbers correspond to the list of instructions of the quick "ASCII" help, as the
detailed descriptions corresponding to the brief descriptions are to be displayed.
Example:
840D_PG.PDF 44 MEAW 155
<PDF file name> <ID> <search string> <page>
Now delete the "search string" column such that the syntax below remains:
Result:
<PDF file name> <ID> <page>
840D_PG.PDF 44 155
4) Generate PDF file
Print your document as a postscript file and convert this to PDF format using Adobe Acrobat
Distiller.
5) Read files into controller
The generated files (*.PDF and *.TXT) must now be read into the controller, e.g., into
directory F:\ DH\CUS.DIR\HLP.
