1.	Introduction


1.1.	 What is Interleaf?

	Interleaf, Inc. provides software and services to allow organizations
	to build, integrate and manage document systems.  Interleaf software
	covers the full range of document processes: accessing information,
	developing text and graphic documents,  putting them through their
	review and revision processes,  distributing them electronically or on
	paper, and managing the entire process.

	"Interleaf 6" is a document authoring and composition package.  It
	provides an integrated set of tools for creating compound documents:
	word processing, graphics, data-driven business charts, tables,
	equations, image editing, automated page layout, book building-
	including automatic index and TOC, conditional document assembly.  It
	includes several features engineered to support the production of large
	and complex document sets, including:  centralized control over parts
	or all of a document (format and/or content), global search and
	replace/change on individual graphics objects regardless of specific
	orientation or position, revision management.

	Also available (on some platforms) is the optional Developer's Toolkit 
	(DTK) for customizing or extending the capabilities of the above 	
	authoring tool.  Developer's Toolkit is used to write programs in 
	Interleaf Lisp.  Interleaf Lisp is similar to CommonLISP, but it also 
	contains an extensive set of classes, methods, and functions for 
	examining and changing almost all Interleaf objects, including 
	documents and their contents.  DTK includes an editor, debugger, 
	compiler, listener, interpreter, and on-line documentation.  Lisp code 
	developed with DTK, or even written with an ordinary editor, can be 
	executed by the stock system, so that customization or the provision of  
	special functionality is not limited to installations with DTK.  In 
	fact, much of the distributed system is written in Lisp.

	Another option for Interleaf 6 is "Interleaf 6 <SGML>" which provides
	complete support for creating structured documents in SGML.

	Other products available from Interleaf include the following:

	"RDM" (Relational Document Manager) organizes, tracks and manages
	documents and data, and automates every stage of the document
	lifecycle.

	"Worldview" distributes information from virtually any source in
	document form for online viewing on virtually any computer.  It
	combines electronic viewing with hypertext navigation and full-text
	retrieval.

	"Intellecte/BusinessWeb" provides a Web browser interface to 
	RDM respositories and WorldView collections via HTML- and 
	Java-based search engines.  Other Intellecte offerings provide a 
	number of different solutions; contact your Interleaf representative 
	for the latest offerings.


1.2.	What platforms does Interleaf run on, and what are the latest versions?

	Full details are on Interleaf's Web page http://www.interleaf.com

	Interleaf 6:

	Interleaf 6.1 has been released on certain Unix platforms with
	the Motif User Interface. The product is available for Sun,
	HP, IBM, and DEC (OSF 1 1.3.x) workstations. Requirements for
	memory range from 16mB to 32mB and disk requirements from 36
	to 68mB, in addition to minimum swap space of from 32-64 mB
	per session, with 64-128mB per host.

	Interleaf 6.2 has been released for Windows NT and Win95.


	Interleaf 5:

	Interleaf 5.4 remains available on the following workstation
	platforms:  DG Aviion, DEC VAX/VMS, DEC Ultrix, HP 700, HP
	300/400, HP/Apollo (Domain), IBM RS/6000, 
	Motorola Delta 8000, Sun-3, Sun-4, Silicon Graphics Iris.

	The "standard" version of Interleaf 5 provides a UI consistent across
	all the platforms it runs on.

	DOS:  (386/486)
	Interleaf 5.4 for DOS is the current edition.
	
	The 5.4 release includes international
	localizations for French, German and Italian, Full Revision Tracking,
	support for DEC Pathworks, improved/additional video device driver
	support, and better support for running from within a Microsoft Windows
	3.1 environment (as a DOS application).  Since Interleaf has not
	completed work on the remaining localizations for Dutch, Spanish and
	Swedish interfaces, this release is seeing limited distribution in
	North America.  The additional languages and other new features will be
	included in the upcoming release, Interleaf 5.4 for DOS.  Customers can
	upgrade from Interleaf IBM Publisher 3.x. (aka version 1.x) to version
	5.2.02 or wait for version 5.4.  Interleaf 5 for DOS is interoperable
	with the Unix and VMS based versions.  It includes all the
	functionality of the workstation-based product (tables, equations,
	charting, graphics, etc.) plus some additional features that allow the
	user to run in Microsoft Windows 3.1 environments without extra memory
	managers or special set-ups.  Features planned for v5.4 include a new
	simplified GUI install, 32-bit color image support and a new font
	hierarchy to greatly reduce disk footprint.

	MAC:
	The current version is Interleaf Publisher for the Mac, version 3.6.
	This product does not conform to the Mac UI, and is no longer available
	from Interleaf.

	Interleaf has announced that no further Macintosh releases are
	planned, though using a Macintosh as an X-server, with the
	software running on a remote Unix system, is perfectly feasible.


1.3.	How much does Interleaf cost?

	Interleaf pricing depends on the exact configuration purchased
	and option packaging varies from country to country. There are 
	several different "options" for Interleaf 5 and 6, 
	including DTK, Revision	Tracking, and Book Catalogs.  The
	"base model" Interleaf license is *very* competitive with
	FrameMaker, or other similar systems.  Adding 
	the above options can be quite expensive.  Many sites use a network
	pool of many inexpensive "basic" licenses plus a few expensive "full
	blown" licenses.

	It has been noted that universities receive a tremendous educational
	discount, and that commerical and educational license costs for
	Interleaf and its competitors differ greatly depending on which country
	you live in and which platform you are buying.  In the US, full-blown
	Interleaf 6 is available to accredited colleges and universities for
	about $200 per site, plus handling.  See the web page at
	http://www.cs.umb.edu/~serl for a pointer to details. That
	page describes a program which applies only to North American 
	universities.Terms for institutions of higher education in
	other countries  (and for businesses and individuals as well)
	vary by country.


1.4	How does Interleaf compare to {FrameMaker,IslandWrite,WordPerfect,etc.}?

	This is a religious and/or political issue for many, and it is very
	hard to provide an objective answer.  The following summarizes a few
	majority opinions from the frequent discussions in the newsgroup.

	Frame is generally considered to be a "mid-range" application; it is
	easy to learn, but experienced users find complex tasks difficult or
	impossible.  Many I5 users hate the "toolbox", "Mac/PC-like"
	interface. 

	Interleaf is thought of as a "high-end" system; it is difficult to get
	started, but expandable and powerful when advanced tasks must be done.
	While many new users abhor the I5 UI, a seemingly equal number
	of experts praise it.  I6 for unix has a traditional Motif
	interface whose graphics editory is largely toolbox based.  6.1
	offers a combination of traditional Motif/MSWindows style
	interface with optional "power user" UI features.

	Interleaf's document creation metaphor is object-oriented and
	structured in approach, in contrast to the page-layout orientation of
	many "Desktop Publishing" products like Frame, Quark, PageMaker, etc.
	This is often a widely misunderstood difference when comparing
	Interleaf to other "similar" products.

	IslandWrite, WordPerfect, MS-Word, et al. have been considered
	low end applications, but as they improve on their
	capabilities, Interleaf distinguishes itself from them in the
	complexity and size of documents it can deal with, in its
	level of integration of text and graphics, and in its open
	architecture for third party extensibility.

1.6	What does FAQ mean?

	If you don't know what a FAQ is, you need to learn more about Usenet.
	Read the introductory postings in news.announce.newusers.


1.7	Why doesn't this FAQ contain info on <your-topic-here>?

	This FAQ is biased toward the Unix Workstation platforms, but that is
	probably a function of the popularity of Interleaf on various
	platforms, the popularity of competing products, and the areas of
	expertise of the FAQ contributors.  If you have valuable information 
	that we missed, or if our assumptions that you are running Unix 
	confuse things, we welcome your suggestions on how to improve this 
	document.

	If something in the FAQ doesn't work for you, it may be due to the
	version of the software you're running, or the platform you're
	running it on.  Most of the active newsgroup posters and FAQ
	contributors seem to be running very recent versions of Interleaf
	(5.4, 6.0 or later) and have Unix workstation platforms,
	usually including SunOS.

	This FAQ is *NOT* intended to be a substitute for the standard
	Interleaf documentation.  Hopefully it will contain the most frequently
	occurring issues that are hard-to-find or absent from the
	documentation.


1.8	Should I post my question to comp.text.interleaf?

	- Understand the introductory information in the news.announce.newusers
	  newsgroup.  Be sure to read the "Rules for posting to Usenet" 
          posting.

	- Read this FAQ.

	- Post to local.test or misc.test if you've never posted before.

	If your question is still unanswered, post it.  Be sure to include all
	the necessary information as appropriate such as:

		The version of Interleaf you are running (including patches)
		The hardware platform you are on
		The version of your Operating System and windowing system
		How much memory and swap space you have
		What type of printer it won't print on
		etc.
	
	This information is also important when you are asking your question
	via email to someone.


1.9	My site does not get netnews. Is there a ListServ or other
	mail gateway for comp.text.interleaf?

	-No.

2.	ADMINISTRATION


2.1	Interleaf administration vs. Unix administration of Interleaf

	The Interleaf System Administration manual provides procedures that
	require the administrator to be running Interleaf, manipulating icons,
	etc., and running Interleaf programs like printer_install and
	prhost_install -- is this really necessary?

	No.  But Interleaf has mixed feelings about providing "Interleaf
	procedures" and "Unix procedures" for the same tasks.  Most of the
	Interleaf procedures have easy Unix shortcuts, but use them at your
	own risk.  The Interleaf equivalent of "ln -s" takes several mouse/
	menu operations.  Some administrators edit their printers.lsp file
	directly (or have their custom shell script do it), never running
	the printer_install or prhost_install programs.

	In the DOS version of Interleaf 5, many of these tasks have been
	simplified and moved into the hands of the end users.  For example,
	prhost_install and printer_install have been merged into one program
	which is run by the user from within Interleaf 5 itself.


2.2	Printing


2.2.1	Can I create PostScript files on the desktop in Interleaf?

	Yes.  The administrator runs printer_install and creates a new
	"printer" named "PostScript" (or whatever).  Choose filtering on the
	desktop, the "Other PostScript printer" model, use the NULL.PPD file,
	face down output, and choose *not* to spool to the printer.  Whatever
	menu name you chose (I suggest "<PostScript File>") will now appear in
	the printer menu.  When selected, it will output to a PostScript file
	in the current directory.  The filename will have a suffix of "_ps"
	(no, Interleaf hasn't learned the ".ps" Unix convention).
	[the previous paragraph works fine on the 5.3 Sun version of Interleaf;
	for other platforms, your mileage may vary]

	Adventuresome hackers can simply insert the following into their
	/interleaf/ileaf5/data/printers.lsp file (on Unix hosts):
		(
		:netname "PostScript"
		:menuname "<PostScript>"
		:filt-args ("-ppd" "NULL.PPD" "-ft" "3")
		:pdltag "ps"
		:filter "pl2ps"
		:install "ps_install"
		:ps-type1 ("-ft" "3")
		:ppdfile "NULL.PPD"
		:rvopt " "
		:european " "
		:physical-printer "PostScript"
		:spool "n"
		:filter-loc "desktop"
		:type "ps"
		:model "Other PostScript printer"
		:id :bsd-other-ps
		)

	On Interleaf 5 for DOS, this comes as a default setup.

	On Interleaf 6 for Win95/NT, you can create Postscript files with the 
	"Print to file . . ." system printer option.


2.2.2	Can Interleaf 5 create Encapsulated PostScript files (EPS files)?

	Yes.  Beginning with Interleaf 5.3, you have the ability to create EPS
	3.0 files as an option under the printer pulldown menu.  To add this
	functionality simply add another printer using printer_install.  Select
	"EPS File" as the printer type.  This will add EPS to your PRINT menu.
	When printing to EPS, the EPS file will contain one entire page
	(including page #, etc.).

	In Interleaf 5 for DOS, add the "-EPS" option to the switch settings
	for creating PS files in the Printer Setup Tool, and save this as a
	new menu entry ("Create EPS File").

	If you want to filter an object that will be placed on a page in some
	other program, you'll need to set the document size appropriately.
	(Unless there is some other way to let Interleaf know where the
	boundaries of the object are.)  Since a typical EPS file is one graphic
	object, you can set the frame size to "Contents," then back to "Fixed"
	to see the actual size of the graphic.  Then, open the Page property
	sheet and enter the frame height and width values as the page size.
	(If someone knows a better way, we'd like to hear about it.)

	There are some subtle differences between PostScript files and EPS
	files.  Each format has its appropriate uses, so both are discussed
	here.  See the comp.lang.postscript FAQ for the gory details.

	One idiosyncrasy of Interleaf-generated EPS files is the line
		%%BoundingBox: (atend)
	Some programs insist on having the BoundingBox at the beginning of
	the document, so if you have an application which chokes on Interleaf
	EPS, move this line to the initial comments section.


2.2.3	Are there special problems with SPARCprinters using NeWSprint?

	Maybe.  Some users have noted problems with SPARCprinters, and other
	note problems with certain fonts or frames or bullets looking "dirty".
	Make sure you have the right PPD file.
	[This section is still under construction.  If you have info to add,
	please send a summary to the editors]


2.2.4	Printerleaf-to-PostScript

	The pl2ps command can be very useful in debugging printing problems.
	Create a printerleaf (*.pl) output file by selecting "Printerleaf" in
	the Printers menu.  Now you can convert this to a PostScript file by
	running pl2ps.  Execute "pl2ps -usage" for a summary of options.  A
	typical invocation would be:
	    % pl2ps  -v  -ppd NULL.PPD  -i docname.pl  -o docname.ps
	The -v (verbose) flag is useful for debugging.  You must always specify
	a PPD file -- this is a good way to test PPD files.


2.2.5	PPD (PostScript Printer Definition) Files

	Adobe PostScript Printer Description (PPD) files describe how to use
	the standard and special features (hardware and software) on a
	specific PostScript printer.  This would include things such as which
	fonts are resident, if duplexing is supported, how many trays exist
	and which paper sizes are available.  PPD files are created by the
	printer manufacturer, not Interleaf.  Interleaf only includes a few of
	the most popular ones on its distribution tape.

	Interleaf PPD files are located in the /interleaf/ileaf5/data/ps
	directory.  These files are usually named with the printer's
	designation and the version of PostScript being used (e.g.,
	LWNTX470.PPD means Apple LaserWriter NTX with PostScript version 4.70).

	Since the Apple LaserWriter is the simple, standard least-common-
	denominator of printers, you can probably get by using the default
	APPLE422.PPD file if you are running Interleaf 5.0 through 5.3.0.
	If you are using version 5.3.1 of Interleaf, you can probably get
	by using the NULL.PPD file.  If these files don't work (i.e., you
	still can't print), or if you want to use advanced capabilites
	your printer may have, you need to get the correct PPD file for your
	printer.

	How to get PPD files.  If you have a printer that isn't on the
	Interleaf tape, you can obtain PPD files directly from Adobe.
	Adobe has an automated mail server that can e-mail PPD files
	(and a bunch of other stuff) directly to you over the
	Internet.  To find out what PPD files are available send mail
	to: ps-file-server@adobe.com.  In the body of the message, on
	the first line, type: "index PPDFiles".  The server will send
	you a list of the PPD files it has available.  For information
	on how to use the server, send another e-mail message to
	ps-file-server@adobe.com.  In the body of the message, on the
	first line, include one word: "help".  The server will send
	you a message describing how to access information.

	All the PPD files on the Adobe server follow the version 4 PPD
	specification.  This means that you must upgrade to version 5.3.1 or
	higher of Interleaf to use type-4 PPD files.  Contact the printer
	manufacturer if you need an older type-3 PPD file.


2.2.6	How do I suppress the Interleaf header page by default?

	The administrator should change the Print->Properties in the original
	document, which lives in the SYSTEM CREATE cabinet; then any new
	documents created will inherit those values.  This change is probably
	effected most easily when the administrator has created a MASTER
	SYSTEM5 CABINET icon on his desktop -- see the administration manual
	for details.


2.2.7	Where can I get more specific information about my Brand XYZ printer?

	See the comp.periphs.printers and comp.lang.postscript newsgroups.


2.2.8	My output seemed to go to the printer, but nothing printed!

	One good way to debug PostScript printing problems is to download a
	PostScript error handler program.  This is a simple PostScript program
	that you "print" to your printer (but no output is generated).  You
	now have an error-handler "loop" running until printer power is cycled.
	If your Interleaf output generates improper PostScript code, instead of
	silently exiting, you will get an error message printed on a page of
	output, which may be of use to a PostScript guru, your printer vendor,
	etc.  You can get an error handler from the Adobe mailserver (see
	"PPD files", above).

2.2.9	Can I print an Interleaf doc without actually running Interleaf?

	Use the -print startup option when you enter the Interleaf 5
	startup command. This prints a document without opening a
	desktop. You supply the name(s) of the document as an
	argument.

	You can specify a printer other than the nearest printer, print
	multiple copies/uncollated copies, print odd or even numbered
	pages, and print a range of pages.

	To specify a printer other than the nearest printer established
	for the workstation, add :printer NAME as an argument to the
	command line option. The default is the nearest printer, which
	may not be the one you want.

	Example:  To print 5 copies of pages 2 through 15 of the
	document plan.doc on the printer ely, use the following command:

	  ileaf -print :copies 5 :first 2 :last 15 :printer ely plan.doc

	Syntax:  Here's the syntax:

	-print {:KEY VALUE}*  DOCUMENT*
	 Print specified files in batch mode.  Optional KEY VALUEs are
	 :printer NAME, :copies NUM, :collated T|NIL, :parity
	 :even|:odd, :first NUM, :last NUM.

	(To get info on all of the available startup options, type
	ileaf -usage.)

2.3	File management

2.3.1	What are all these ,8 and ,9 files on my desktop?

	For every Interleaf document file.doc, you get a set of additional
	files with assorted filename extensions. At Interleaf 5, the
	filename extensions are as follows:
	
           filename.doc  the document
	 filename.doc,1  the backup version of the document
	 filename.doc#1  a copy of the document
       filename.doc#1,1  the backup version of the copy
	 filename.doc,2  the checkpoint version of the document
	 filename.doc,3  the crash version of the document
	 filename.doc,4  the work-in-progress version of the document
	 filename.doc,5  Lisp methods associated with the document
	 filename.doc,6  Lisp data associated with the document,
			 most often Hyperleaf Toolkit data (see 2.18)
	 filename.doc,8  an autonumbering and autoreferencing summary file 
			 for this document
	 filename.doc,9  an indexing summary file for this document
	 .@filename.doc  an attribute file with information on document
	    		 attributes and icon position

	When you copy normal documents (without Hyperleaf TK data -
	locators or hypertext links), move them, send them through email, 
	etc, the only version you need is the plain .doc version.

	backup version (filename.doc,1)
		 The backup version is made by Interleaf automatically
		 (based on the number of keystrokes you make or mouse
		 movements in a graphics frame).  You can use this
		 file to recover lost changes if something disastrous
		 happens when you are working on a doc and you don't
		 have a chance to save a crash file, eg a power cut.
 
                 In such a case, list the files to see if the .1 version  
                 has a later time stamp than the .doc version. If it has, 
                 rename the ,1 version (eg backup.doc) and open that - this
                 should recover some if not all of your changes.

    		 For example:

		 % ls -l body*
		 -rw-r--r--  1 julie       16382 Jan 27 18:15 body.doc
		 -rw-r--r--  1 julie       18052 Jan 27 18:27 body.doc,1
		 -rw-r--r--  1 julie         532 Jan 27 16:42 body.doc,8
		 % mv body.doc,1 body-backup.doc

	crash version  (filename.doc,3)
		If you get an Interrupt stickup (eg SIGSEGV signal) in the
		middle of editing a document, you can save your document
		in a crash file (the File option). Select the File option
		for as many open documents as you are working on and then
		exit. When you next try to open your original document you
		will get a popup telling you that a crash file exists and
		offering you the choice which version of the doc you want
		to open. If it no good, you can always revert to another 
		version (backup, saved).

	work-in-progress (filename.doc,4)
		This is created when you execute Close in a document
		you have modified and choose Hold on the stickup. It is
		also created if have more than 4 docs open at once in a
		book.  You can change this limit in the user profile.
		With 4 edited and unsaved docs open, when you open a
		5th  document, Interleaf will close one of the first 4,
		keeping all changes you have made in a work-in-progess
		file. Next time you open a doc with a work-in-progress
		file, Ileaf automatically opens that version.

	        **NOTE:	See also Bugs & Workarounds section**

   	attribute file (.@filename.doc)
		This is the file that controls where the icon appears
		on the screen. When you copy a file to your desktop
		using the OS and it doesn't appear on the desktop, it's
		because the file has no associated .@ file. When you do
		a rescan, a .@ file is created. When you delete a file
		from an Interleaf directory using the OS and you don't
		delete the associated .@ file, the icon will remain
		visible in Interleaf. If you select the icon and look
		at its Property sheet, you will see that it is an
		incomplete file. You need to delete the associated .@
		file when you delete a document (folder/cabinet/file) 
		using the OS (or you can simply cut the icon in Interleaf).



3.	IMPORT-EXPORT, 3rd party tools, customizing


3.1	Importing information into Interleaf


3.1.1	Importing files


3.1.2	How do I get the name of the document into my file?

	To put the document name into a frame--typically a header or footer
	frame--type Escape-@ into a text string.  Some distributions may use
	the key binding Escape-n.  This won't work in microdocuments.  This is
	parallel to putting in page numbers with Escape-#, or the date with
	Ctrl-X d.

	The LISP command "(tell *document* mid:get-name)" will return a string
	with the document name.  I suppose one could automate the insertion of
	this string in much the same way as the autodate2 program (q.v.),
	though I'd be interested to see something simpler.  This is such a
	useful capability that I hope someone posts a nice solution.


3.1.3	How do I get the date into my file?

	If working in a book with a catalog, you can place the date in a shared
	component or shared-content frame within the catalog.  Turn frame
	and/or component exports on.  Then you only need to update the catalog
	when the date changes.

	If not working in a book, you can tag the document with an attribute
	for "date" and use Effectivity Control to control what date appears in
	the document.

	In Interleaf 5, you can use the Ctrl-x d command in a component or
	microdocument to insert the current system date, although it will not
	update automatically each time the document is accessed.

	Lisp scripts can be written to insert a date that will change
	dynamically, or to change the format of the date.

	Bob Morris has written some active document LISP code will make the
	current date appear in an I5 document automatically when you
	open it.  It will also give you the option of freezing the
	date upon closing the document, i.e.  "deactivating" the
	document at close time.  The latest version of this LISP file
	is named "autodate2", and is available via anonymous ftp ftom
	ftp.cs.umb.edu in the /pub/interleaf/lisp/ directory, and by
	gopher or the World Wide Web as described in Section 6.

	In Interleaf6, a similar facility is provided with the software.


3.1.4	How can I make "form letters" where name/addresses are pulled in from
	external sources?

	The January 1992 issue of "Foliage", the (now defunct) newsletter of 
        the Northeast Interleaf User's Group, had an article on how to do this 
        with ASCII markup.

	The general idea (modified somewhat from the article) is
	to define components such as <address>, <salutation>, <letter1>, and so
	on in an Interleaf document.  Use "Global apply" or "Unify all" to make
	sure the component masters match what you see on screen.  Save
	<letter1> with contents, and turn on its "Shared contents" property.
	Turn on the "Start new page = yes" property of The first component in
	the letter, e.g. <date>.  Save the document as ASCII, with a name such
	as letter_master.doc.

	Have your database write out a file such as:
	    <!class defaults, fill = blank>
	    <!Include definitions /home/my/desktop/letter_master.doc>

	    <date>December 2, 1992
	    <address>John Smith
	    <address>1111 Home Street
	    <address>Anytown, USA 02000
	    <salutation>Dear Mr. Smith:
	    <letter1>

	    <date>December 2, 1992
	    <address>John Q. Public
	    <address>222 Any Place
	    ...

	The <!class ...> is needed only if your external data contains multiple
	lines of text within a component.

	Since line breaks are not significant, and a blank line repeats the
	preceding component, the following is equivalent:
	    <!class defaults, fill = blank>
	    <!Include definitions /home/my/desktop/letter_master.doc>

	    <date>
	    December 2, 1992

	    <address>
	    John Smith

	    1111 Home Street

	    Anytown, USA 02000

	    <salutation>
	    Dear Mr. Smith:

	    <letter1>
	    ...

	If you load this file into Interleaf, or print it using Interleaf
	command line parameters, Interleaf will expand the shared <letter1>
	content in each instance.

	Substituting external data into the text of the letter is much harder.
	It requires tricks with inline components, which are extremely ugly in
	ASCII markup.  See the Interleaf File Formats manual for more details.


3.1.5	Importing Graphics
	    -PostScript
		The psfilt program is used to import PostScript into an 
		Interleaf document.  As of ileaf5.3, it is bundled with 
		Interleaf free of charge.
	    -other Interleaf 5.3 filters will import CGM and TIFF files

	Interleaf 6 for Win95/NT includes what appears to be fairly good OLE 
	support -- with the Paste Special command, you can paste document 
	elements from other OLE-compliant applications directly into an 
	Interleaf document.  (For instance, you can paste a Visio flowchart 
	directly into an Interleaf document.)  when you double-click on those 
	elements, you get a small window into the other application, which 
	allows you to edit the element in its interface.  You can give the 
	resulting Interleaf document to other people to edit, as long as they 
	also have the other applications.

	Interleaf 6 also ships with a vastly expanded import/export filter 
	library; filters included (at least in the Windows version) are:

	Graphics (B&W and color):
		Adobe Illustrator
		AutoCAD (import only)
		Windows BMP (import only)
		CGM
		GIF (import only)
		GSA Navy DIF
		DrawPerfect
		HPGL (Hewlett-Packard's plotter language, import only)
		IGES (import only, converts 3D to 2D)
		Pc Paintbrush PCX (import only)
		PICT
		TIFF
		Windows Metafile (WMF)

	Note: Tom Jones reports that Interleaf's import filter crashed 
	repeatedly when he tried to import a WMF file created by Interleaf's 
	output filter.

	Text:
		AmiPro
		DCA
		DEC DX
		EBCDIC
		Excel XLS spreadsheets (which convert to tables)
		GlobalView
		IBM DisplayWrite
		Lotus WK3 spreadsheets (which convert to tables)
		Mass-11
		MultiMate
		Plain ASCII text
		Microsoft Word RTF (see note below)
		Wang PC
		WordStar
		XyWrite

	Note: RTF is a text-only format.  To convert Microsoft Word documents 
	containing graphics to Interleaf, save them in WordPerfect format and 
	import that file.
	
	Mixed graphics and text:
		FrameMaker (import only)
		WordPerfect

3.1.6	FrameMaker to Interleaf

	Interleaf has a Frame to Interleaf filter called "miffilt" that is 
	available for SunSPARC, HP, IBM RS-6000, Ultrix, DOS, and Windows 
	95/NT.  It works with Interleaf 5.3 and is included in the Interleaf 
	Motif release.

	See also the "Interleaf-to-Framemaker" section below about Filtrix
	by Blueberry Software.


3.2	Exporting information from Interleaf


3.2.1	Exporting Interleaf documents to PostScript format

	You can create PostScript or, beginning with v5.3, Encapsulated
	PostScript (EPS 3.0) documents as long as your administrator has
	installed the printers appropriately.  See the administration section
	for information on this, plus other filtering caveats.


3.2.2	Exporting Interleaf PostScript into troff

	Interleaf, like many other proprietary packages, assumes that its
	PostScript output is part of a larger (Interleaf- generated) PostScript
	file.  Each fragment makes assumptions about the environment, e.g.,
	counting on certain macros or variables to be defined, perhaps through
	a prologue.  The troff PostScript postprocessor would have to know
	about every such environment for every proprietary package a priori,
	and put it in the prologue for you.  Every now and then something
	works, often enough to lead you to believe it will always work.  If
	you're a programmer, it's a bit like taking a C function that requires
	global variables and never initializing them.  PostScript is, indeed, a
	programming language, not just a printer format.


3.2.3	Exporting Graphics

	Many users are confused on how to export graphics.  Some users report
	success when saving the Interleaf document as a PostScript file, then
	using other packages to convert the PostScript to whatever format is
	desired.

	Once you've got PostScript, use the GNU package GhostScript to convert
	it to PBM (Portable Bit Map), GIF (Graphics Interchange Format), or PCX
	(PC Paintbrush).  GhostScript is available at all the popular GNU ftp
	sites.  These file formats are all compile-time options, so if you've
	already got GhostScript at your site make sure it has the right formats
	compiled in.

	If you need a format other than one listed above, convert to PBM first
	then use the PBMPLUS suite of conversion filters to convert PBM to
	whatever you need.  PBMPLUS handles a ton of file formats, and is
	available at many popular ftp sites.

	If you're not on a Unix system, GhostScript is available for MS-DOS and
	VMS, and PBMPLUS is available on the Amiga (and possibly other
	platforms).  You can also find other graphics conversion programs for
	most platforms.  PBM and GIF formats in particular are rather common,
	so if you can convert to one of those it's likely you can find
	something to convert to the format you really want.

	Beware of converting multiple page documents to a graphics format.
	Most graphics formats don't really have the concept of "page".
	GhostScript will still do the conversion, but will convert each page as
	a separate image.  That's good.  Unfortunately, it puts all those
	images in the same file.  That's bad.  It's pretty easy to write a sed,
	awk, or perl script to split multiple PBM images out of a single file;
	I've never really tried it for the other graphics formats.

	You can go through these steps to produce an image file suitable
	for faxing via faxmodem!  Tell GhostScript to use a resolution of
	210x98 dpi; this is the resolution of a fax machine.  (Use 210x196
	dpi for "fine" mode.)  PBMPLUS includes a filter for PBM to Group 3
	FAX.


3.2.4	Interleaf to FrameMaker

	Blueberry Software sells Filtrix, which converts to and from Interleaf 			
	IAF versions 4, 5, and 6.  Filtrix converts text and graphics between 
	Interleaf and a wide variety of other formats, including FrameMaker, 
	Applixware, Word, and WordPerfect.  The conversions are very full-
	featured, and the product runs on Windows, Sun, HP, and DEC Alpha. 
	Special builds are available for developers and OEMs. A free demo is 
	available at www.blueberry.com.

	The latest version of Filtrix supports Interleaf 24-bit rasters.  An 
	import and export of HTML has been added, as well as import of Word 97 
	text, tables, and graphics to all versions of Interleaf.

	Frame Technology Corp. now has an Interleaf to FrameMaker filter,
	called "ileaf2mif".  For a while, Frame was offering it free to new
	with new purchases, and advertising it as "the Ultimate Interleaf
	Upgrade".  Some users report reasonable operation, but others note
	that it will not handle equations, etc.  It only handles the TPS4.0 
	version of Interleaf.  Users report:
	
	"I've used the Interleaf->Frame filter ileaf2mif on Suns to translate
	Interleaf files to MIF for end use on PC.  The filter does a
	reasonable job of handling Interleaf 4.X ASCII format files, but fails
	on Interleaf 5.3 ASCII format files.  You can convert within 5.3 to a
	4.X format ASCII, but there are still things in the resultant file the
	Frame filter doesn't like.  The only way I could make this transfer
	work was convert our 5.3 files to 4.X; invoke Interleaf 4 and save the
	converted files once again from Interleaf 4; then run the filter on
	the 4.X files.  This worked fine.  The large caveat here is that
	Interleaf 5.3 supports many features not available in 4.X.  If you
	depend on any of these new features, you might be out of luck.  We
	have only a few documents in this unfortunate situation; they will
	continue on as Interleaf docs for the time being.  Another potential
	problem is you must have Interleaf 4.  I never did isolate what the
	differences were between 4.X ASCII and 5.3-converted-to-4.X ASCII.  It
	might be possible to hand edit (or sed edit) the files."
	
	"The final hurdle in filtering is that Interleaf and Framemaker
	philosophies for handling shared content, graphics objects, page
	layouts, you name it, differ enough that the MIF files produced by
	Frame's ileaf2mif filter are at best poorly structured Frame files.
	To be fair, they do make reasonable compromises and the job of
	improving translated files is far easier than the job of hand
	translating Interleaf documents to Framemaker."
	
	"[Frame's Interleaf-to-Frame filter] is OK, but no raves.  It ...can't
	handle all the autoreferencing since the two codes use such different
	models.  I converted a 900 page manual with lots of references and
	figures.  It took me about a month to get things back to an
	auto-updating state in Framemaker.  Oh well, at least it beats
	retyping."

3.2.5	Interleaf to HTML

	Interleaf's Cyberleaf program is a commercial program which
	converts from many sources, including Interleaf binary or
	ASCII.  See Section 7.0 for more details.

	There is at least one free tool: leaf2html, available at 
	http://www.wpi.edu/ftp/contrib/leaf2html.tar.gz.  This program does not  
	handle hyperleaf links or provide a facility for adding user-provided 
	links.  It chunks large documents into small html files and 
	automatically links them.
	


3.3	Third Party Tools

	Contact Interleaf at (800) 955-5323 (press 1 for Sales Support) for a 
	list of current Interleaf business partners, and a brief description of  
	products that work with Interleaf.


3.3.1	Spelling/Grammar Checkers

	Chris Talbott reports:
	My group has had Avalanche's ProofPositive in-house for about a year
	now, and it seems to be a fairly nice grammar/style checker.  It's
	based on the Houghton-Mifflin engine, and it's pretty quick.
	ProofPositive is an Interleaf layered application which runs against an
	open document on your desktop.  It's got a fair level of control over
	which rules it uses and how sensitive it is (e.g. how badly an
	infinitive has to be split before it complains), and it has a
	Dictionary/ Thesaurus program as well.  Our only complaint with it is
	that it won't work non-interactively (a key concern for us, maybe not
	for you).  Apparently, a future release of PP will allow you to define
	your own grammar rules."

	Oracle produces a grammar checker for Interleaf called CoAuthor.  It
	seems like it offers roughly the same capability that ProofPositive
	does, for about the same price.  It uses its own UI, however, instead
	of the native Interleaf one.

	Deborah Graham reports that ProofPositive and CoAuthor do not work
	with Interleaf 6.


3.3.2	SQL

	Chris Talbott reports:
	"A third-party tool called Smartleaf allows SQL calls to be embedded
	into Interleaf components, to pull information from databases into a
	formatted Interleaf documents, for example.  Smartleaf is produced by
	Database Publishing Software in Woburn, MA.  (617-938-0018)  They also
	produce a document comparison tool called Smartleaf/Compare.  We've had
	Smartleaf/Compare in-house for about as long as we have had
	ProofPositive.  The tool is useful for such things as comparing an
	archived version of a document/book with the "current" version
	(especially if several revisions have come between the documents in
	question).  As of Apr 1993, the comparison algorithm is not as robust
	as might be desired, and the options for marking the changes in the
	'difference document' are less than stellar, but their 3.0 release (in
	alpha test Apr 1993?) is supposed to have greatly improved the
	algorithm and the marking options.  Database Publishing is also
	involved in developing applications for CALS/SGML support."


3.3.3	Clip Art

	For the (now defunct) GenRad newsletter, Deborah Graham used a demo 
        package from:

	Fusion Graphics
        1728 Moorpark Road
        Thousand Oaks, CA 91360
	(805) 494-8411

        They had an extensive collection of clip art that was compatible with 
	Interleaf and other systems.  However, Deborah believes that the
	collection is no longer available.


3.3.4	Graphics tools

	XV is a shareware program by John Bradley of U. Penn.  It can read
	and write GIF, PM, PBM, X11 bitmap, Sun Raster, PostScript, JPEG,
	and TIFF file formats, and is a very useful translation tool.  It is
	available via ftp from ftp.cis.upenn.edu in the /pub/xv directory.

	IslandPaint, from Island Graphics, is a good bitmap (or raster)
	graphic editor.  It can read TIFF, GIF, Group3 FAX, Sun Raster, and
	X11 bitmap files.  It can write TIFF and Sun Raster files that
	Interleaf can filter into pasteable graphic images.

	IslandDraw, from Island Graphics, is a good object drawing editor.
	It can read and edit EPS, EPS objects, CGM, HPGL, PICT, and Frame
	3.0 MIF drawings.  It writes EPSF, EPSI, TIFF, CGM, and Frame 3.0 MIF
	file formats.  Interleaf can directly paste in EPSI drawings (and
	display them on screen as of v5.3.1)

	CorelDraw, from Prior Data Sciences, is a drawing program that
	imports and exports "most standard graphics formats such as TIFF
	and EPS".


3.4	Customizing tips


3.4.1	Startup options

	Many startup options for Interleaf are configurable via X11 resources.
	See chapter 1 of the Interleaf 5 System Administation manual.  Startup
	options start on page 1-8.  Xresources are on pages 1-14 through 1-16.
	One favorite addition to $HOME/.Xdefaults files is

	    Ileaf.geometry:	1141x869+0+0

	which works well on Suns to make the desktop window cover the whole
	screen.  Many startup options can also be handled with command line
	options.

	A list of supported Xresources for Interleaf 6 is provided (with
	usage explanations) in the text file: $ILEAF6_HOME/data/x/Xres


3.4.2	Mouse Buttons

	How can you change the default mouse buttons on a site-wide basis?

	Edit /interleaf/ileaf5/english.cab/Custom.cab/profile.drw/init.lsp
	(english.cab may be a different name, depending on the installed
	language).  Each Interleaf user has a symbolic link to this file from
	their ~/desktop/System5.cab/Custom.cab/profile.drw.  Uncomment the
	three lisp commands shown below, and edit them to specify the desired
	system default actions.
	    ;;;
	    ;;;     Mouse button mappings:
	    ;;;
	    ;(tell *wn-wmgr* mid:set-props :left-button :select)
	    ;(tell *wn-wmgr* mid:set-props :middle-button :menu)
	    ;(tell *wn-wmgr* mid:set-props :right-button :extend)
	Any user with a customized profile (e.g. created with Profile Tool)
	will get the settings from the profile, overriding these defaults.


3.4.3	Keyboard mapping

	Many users have asked about changing the function/behavior of
	certain keys.  Some complain of "no R1 key on the Sun keyboard",
	or want "a delete-to-the-right key like TPS4.0 had".

	One solution is to use xmodmap(1).  This, however, is not a "within
	Interleaf" solution -- xmodmap will change the keyboard mappings for
	the whole login session.

	One small example of xmodmap is the following command, which will
	make the "Del" key on the right hand keypad of a Sun (keycode 57)
	perform the function of the "Cut/L10" key ("F20"):
	    xmodmap -e keycode 57 + F20
	

3.4.4	Default document templates

	The documents in your ~/desktop/System5.cab/Create.cab are those which
	you see when you press the menu button with nothing selected on the
	desktop, and then pull right a submenu on "Create".  Note that some
	files in this directory are typically links into the master cabinet.
	You can remove these links and create your own, or use the more popular
	method of creating your own subdirectory (called "mytemplates.fdr" for
	example).  Put your template documents there, and then pull right thru
	Create->mytemplates-> to create new documents.

	For site-wide templates, the administrator can place templates in
	the Master System5/Create.cab/Templates.fdr.  Each user will have to
	execute Custom-->Misc-->Update in their Templates.fdr to get these
	new templates.


3.4.5	Changing the color of the desktop

	With the User Interface Painter, you can make your desktop and icons
	any color you want.  You first need to turn on the UI Painter in the
	Custom->ToolMgr.  Then you can select a default color scheme from
	Create->Tools->UIPainter, and modify it if you wish with the color
	editor.  To make the change permanent, copy the UI Painter icon you
	created into your System5--Custom--profile drawer.

	Some users report that use of the UI Painter causes more frequent
	occurrences of SIGSEGV and SIGBUS signals.  Revision Tracking has also
	been blamed for this.

	Interleaf 6.2 for Win95/NT uses the operating system's color scheme
	(accessible through the Control Panel) and does not have a separate
	UI Painter.


3.4.6	Creating color documents

	By default, when you try to Edit->Color, you just get shades of gray.
	You must create any colors you want to use by first going into the
	Palette->Color Editor (document name menu Misc-> pull right menu).
	See your hardcopy Interleaf documentation for details.  These colors
	can be made site-wide by modifing the Master document in the Master
	System5 cabinet.


3.4.7	Creating user-defined patterns
  
	By default, interleaf gives you 16 patterns.  To add to these, use the
	Pallette->Pattern editor.  Again, site-wide patterns should be added
	to the Master document in the Master System5 cabinet.



4.	MISC USER QUESTIONS


4.1	How can I print "DRAFT" diagonally across the background of each page?

	Create a frame in a component and designate the placement as "underlay"
	through the frame props.  Enter text string "DRAFT" using ctrl-O,
	convert the text to outline, size it, edit it to a light shade of gray,
	then rotate it.  Make the frame shared content, and set props to
	Repeat=Begin, Anchors_Page=Yes so that it will show up on every page of
	the document.


4.2	Is there any way to rotate microdocuments?

	No.  If you need to rotate text, use ctrl-O text strings (hit ctrl-O
	inside a frame, then enter text).  You can only rotate ctrl-O text
	strings in 90-degree increments.  To get anything else, convert to
	outline.


4.3	How can I search and replace with a tab or hard return? 

	In order to search for, or replace with, a tab or a hard return,
	preface the tab or return key with the Esc key.  (This is the Alt key
	for the IBM RT, and F11 on DEC/Ultrix and VAX/VMS.)


4.4	Can I get international characters on my U.S. based version of
	Interleaf 5?

	Yes, with your cursor in the text area, choose Create->Char, then
	choose the desired font.  Extend the menu and you will see the
	international characters.  You can also get these through keys as
	described in the online document Compose_Sequences under
	System5->Release Notes.


4.5	Will fast startup under Interleaf 5.3 help with performance?

	The fast startup options available under Interleaf 5 (5.3) reduce the
	amount of time it takes to bring up a desktop.  However, once the
	desktop is up, no other performance gains are realized.  Interleaf
	documentation explains the optional fast startup commands available.

	Note two things: (a) fast startup creates a file on your
	desktop about 5mB in size. (b) A substantial amount of system
	state is saved in the fast startup file (that's how it works).
	This often means that under some circumstances you may need to
	remove the file ileaf.fst from your desktop so that it is
	recreated. This is advisable after any new releases of the
	software, of site-wide or individuallly installed
	applications, or in some cases if carelessly written active 
	documents make assumptions about the system state.



4.6	How can I capture popups in Interleaf 5.3 under OpenWindows?

	At the Unix prompt, type
	     % sleep 10; capture
	You'll then have 10 seconds to setup the popup to be captured. The
	capture box will appear and mouse control will be transferred to it.
	The middle button will give choices of Move, Capture, Size and Quit.
	Capture will create an image.img file, placed in your home directory,
	that can be pasted into a document.


4.7	Keyboard types

	If Interleaf won't start with error messages like:
	    In system startup file:
	    Error: Wrong argument type: nil
	    (logand 32767 (x-keycode-to-keysym 12 0))

	then you need to specify your keyboard type with the -keyboard switch:
	    ileaf -keyboard keyboard_type

	"none" is a valid keyboard type, but you won't have any key mappings,
	like page-up/page-down.  The choices in 5.3 are:  apollo, aviion, dec,
	hp, rs6000, sun_type3, sun_type4, none.  (The command switches are in
	the System Administration manual.)

	If you have a Sun Type 5 keyboard, you need the "patch tape" which
	brings Interleaf 5.3 to 5.3.1.


4.8	Does Interleaf read this newsgroup?

	"Lots of us at Interleaf, from all walks, read the messages.  And we're
	very glad this newsgroup is up and running.  But we also recognize that
	this is a medium for our users, not for Interleaf, Inc.  So, we are
	encouraging Interleafers not to jump into discussions prematurely.  Our
	unofficial policy is that if a Leafer has an answer to a question which
	other users don't appear to be responding to (or if it's a request for
	information that really should be addressed by us), then we'll reply
	privately.  There may, of course, be occasions where a public reply
	makes most sense, so we won't rule that out."


4.9	Why does my tutorial crash?

	Many problems were noticed with the tutorial in v5.2.  Many of these
	were fixed in v5.3.  Paranoid users who wish to run the tutorial might
	want to temporarily rename their desktop directory before running the
	tutorial, and then rename it back when finished.


4.10	Why doesn't Interleaf have an indent command or keystroke?

	It's not appropriate for Interleaf to have a simple indent command.
	Property Sheets are germane to the point of structured document
	editors.  If you "merely" indent without changing the document objects,
	you are essentially imputing structure from format.  This is a Bad
	Thing as it makes it very difficult to edit structure later on.  On the
	other hand, format deduced from structure, as provided by many systems
	with "style sheet"-like mechanisms, is easy to edit.  Also, it does not
	lead to confusion when the format is to be changed.  For a most
	dramatic example, see "Can Structured Formatters Prevent Train
	Crashes?", J.  Andre, Electronic Publishing---Origination,
	Dissemination and Design (EP-ODD), v. 2 #3, pp169-174, October 1989).

	However, it is possible in Interleaf 5 to provide keyboard actions
	which will edit structure as well as content.  Bob Morris has written
	some Lisp which will do this for the indentation toggling problem.
	Contact him at ram@cs.umb.edu for more info.


4.11	Memory leaks

	Interleaf has been known to allocate large amounts of virtual memory
	and never give it back.  If you get an "out of memory" message, try
	exiting Interleaf and trying the operation again.  Users who remain
	logged in for days/weeks/months with Interleaf running the whole time
	exacerbate this problem.  You can use the Unix "pstat -T" command to
	view the amount of virtual memory being used.

	Under HP-UX, use "/etc/swapinfo -t" instead of pstat.  HP-UX has some
	memory leak problems in the vfork() call that can be fixed with kernel
	patch PHKL_0743 for HP-UX 8.07.

	Patch PRA # 93-15 for Interleaf 5.3.1 is available to address memory
	leak problems.  Some sites have already worked around this problem
	by running on workstations with large amounts of memory and swap
	space.


4.12	Runaway processes; exiting Interleaf

	If Interleaf is not exited properly, it may continue to run.  Sun
	OpenWindows users, for example, may logout via the OpenWindows menu's
	"Exit".  This will cause Interleaf to continue to run, consuming memory
	and cpu time.


4.13	How do I get a clock permanently on my desktop?

	Copy the Clock.lsp lisp program to your profile drawer.  Any lisp
	programs in your profile drawer will be run every time you start
	Ileaf.

	For Unix types:
	    % cp /interleaf/ileaf5/english.cab/Custom.cab/No_Selection.cab\
	    /Misc.drw/Clock.lsp ~/desktop/System5.cab/Custom.cab/profile.drw

	(note that the above is one line, and that I broke the pathname
	in the middle)

	For Interleaf types:
	    open System5->Custom->No_Selection->Misc
	    copy the Clock lisp icon
	    open System5->Custom->profile
	    paste the Clock lisp icon at the bottom right.

	Lisp hackers can now edit your copy of Clock.lsp, and change the
	font/window size/window postion/etc.


4.14	I created a file in my desktop directory but Interleaf doesn't see it!

	Any files created under your desktop directory by processes other than
	Interleaf (e.g. from a Unix shell prompt) while Interleaf is running
	do not appear as icons.  Conversely, files removed still have icons
	displayed.

	To make newly created files appear, choose Custom->Rescan.  Automatic
	rescan can be set in your profile using the profile tool, but since
	it slows things down it is disabled by default.

	Also use Rescan when removing files, but remember that any FileName.doc
	will have a .@FileName.doc file associated with it for icon
	positioning.  If you don't remove both files, you'll get strange
	behavior later.


4.15	What are all these funny Unix filenames?  What's this Mona Lisa icon?

	If you cd to your desktop directory and do an ls -a, you may see things
	that don't seem to correspond to the icons Interleaf shows you.  These
	are documented on pages 1-6 through 1-8 of the System Administration
	manual, along with the meaning of each type of icon.


4.16	Is there any way to count the number of words in an Interleaf document?

	If you have a lot of documents and want to automate this, you may well
	find it easier and faster to run Unix shell scripts which:
	    1. Run Interleaf in batch mode to make the files interleaf ascii.
	    2. Run textfilt to strip markup.
	    3. Use the Unix wc(1) program to count words.

	Bob Morris has written some Lisp code which will count words.  It may
	or may not be useful to you.  Ask him for details.


4.17	Is there a way to sum up or sort a row or column in a table?

	David Lightman reports that there is a simple Lisp script available
	from the Leafline (q.v.) which sorts a column in ascending ascii.

	Also he has written some Lisp scripts to sum a column (sorry haven't
	done rows), along with changing the attributes of row components based
	on a value you enter (simple database query idea).  Contact him for
	more info.


4.18	Is there a way to view an Interleaf document without starting Ileaf?

	This is what Interleaf's WorldView product can do. (q.v.)


4.19	When I try to fill a box, I get a diagonal line instead!

	This is a bug that occurs when you use "Zoom" (in the pulldown menu
	under the "View" bar just below the filename).  It occurs only when
	"View" is different than "x1".  Use "Zoom" for text only.  If you want
	to zoom in on a graphics object, inside the frame use the pullright
	menu option Misc->View->Magnify->Larger.


4.20	Big blank white squares

	On some systems, after you dismiss a menu or other popup over the
	desktop, the space under the menu will remain as a blank white square,
	instead of refreshing.  The fix for this is to edit the .Xdefaults file
	and add:
	    Ileaf.popup.saveUnder:  true
	This behavior seems common on systems running the MIT X11R5
	server. Note that the precise capitalization of the string
	Ileaf.popup.saveUnder is critical.
 


4.21	How do I start a new page with component xyzzy?

	Select the component xyzzy, open its props, and click on Page props.
	Set the start new page to Yes.


4.22	How do I line up columns?  Spaces don't work.

	Use tabs and set the spacing on the Tab Property sheet for the
	component.  You can also use this to align numbers on a decimal
	point.  Better yet, use tables.


4.23	How do I combine two separate documents into one?

	Select the first document and open it.  Select the second document
	and cut it.  Now move to the point in the open document you want to
	place the cut document, and execute paste in the COMPONENT BAR.


4.24	What useful lisp scripts come with Interleaf?

	If your administrator has installed Leafware from the distribution
	tape, you have access to a many UNSUPPORTED lisp scripts.  One that
	may prove useful is keyboard-typo (a better name is auto-quote).
	This automatically puts in an open qoute or close quote as required;
	it also changes the - to a hyphen instead of a minus sign.  Another
	useful script is iconify, which allows you to hide your open document
	window and gives you back your desktop space so you can find another
	document.  There is also a script to mail an ascii stripfiltered
	version of your document to a person you specify.

	Interleaf 6.2 for Win95/NT no longer has the typo script.  It does 
	support some of the script's features in the Tools -> Preferences 
	command (which replaces Interleaf 5's Profile Tool).


4.25	What is "Interleaf-J" ?

	That's the Japanese (kanji) version of Interleaf.  It is reported to
	have slightly greater memory/swap requirements than the English
	version.


4.26	How do I email Interleaf documents?

	There are several ways you can email Interleaf documents:

  	o  If you know the recipient has Interleaf, you can use one 
	   of two methods:
   
    	   - Save the document as Interleaf ASCII, then include it in a 
	     mail file
            
	   - Using OpenLook Mailtool, send the normal (binary) Interleaf
	     document as an attachment.  The mailtool encodes the binary
	     file for you so it mails successfully.  It will complain if 
	     the document is too large.  Also, it must be manually decoded 
	     if the recipient is not working in an Openwindows environment.

	     Refer to the OpenWindows documentation for more information.

	     Note that this only works in OpenWindows version 3, not in
	     version 2.  Version 3 doesn't run on 3/xx machines - it would
	     be safer to stick to ASCII if you're not sure what machine
	     your recipient is using.

	o  If the recipient does not have Interleaf, you can strip the
	   Interleaf document down into a plain ascii file which you can
	   then load into a mail file.  This method is fine if you just
	   want to transfer text, but you lose any graphics in frames.
     
	The instructions below are for people with not much experience at
	using mail, so they're fairly detailed. They also had to cover
	people who don't have workstations, so it includes instructions on
	using the mail program rather than the mailtool.
	
	Sending a Document
	------------------
	To send an Interleaf document through email, follow this procedure. 

	1.  In Interleaf, save the document in ASCII (Save->ASCII)
	
	2.  Mail the ASCII file with one of the following methods:
	
	  a. Redirect the file into the mail message with a single 
	     command. For example, 
	
	     %mail andrew < ~/desktop/whatsup.doc
	
	  b. Enter the mail environment or open a mailtool and then 
	     read in the file. Use this method if you wish to preface or
	     follow the document you are sending with text. For example,

	     In the mail environment:
	       1)  Type mail andrew
	       2)  Enter any required text.
	       3)  Type ~r ~/desktop/whatsup.doc
	       4)  Enter CONTROL D or a period (.) alone on a line 
		   to end the message.
	
	     Using a mailtool (SunView):
	       1)  Press the Compose button to bring up a compose window.
	       2)  Fill in the To, Subject, and Cc fields.
	       3)  Enter any required text.	  
	       4)  Read in the document:
		   i. In the message area, type in the pathname of the 
		      document, eg, ~/desktop/whatsup.doc.
		  ii. Highlight the pathname and then execute the 
		      "File->Include File" option on the menu.
	       5)  Hit the Deliver button.
	
	     Using a mailtool (OpenWindows):
	       1)  Press the Compose button to bring up a compose window.
	       2)  Fill in the To, Subject, and Cc fields.
	       3)  Enter any required text.	  
	       4)  Load in the document:
		   i. In the message area, execute File > Include file
		  ii. Enter the name of the document in the popup & press
		      the "Include File" button.
	       5)  Hit the Deliver button in the Mailtool to send the mail.

	When the document is inserted into the mail message, it is in 
	ASCII format. The first line is always:
	 
	  <!OPS, Version = 6.4>       (for Interleaf 4 documents)
	  <!OPS, Version = 8.0>       (for Interleaf 5 documents)

	Text preceding this line must be deleted by the recipient before
	the converting the file back to an Interleaf document.

	Receiving a Document
	--------------------
	To convert a file received through mail back into an Interleaf
	document, follow the procedure shown below.

	Using the mail environment:
	
	  1.  Change into your desktop directory and enter the mail 
	      environment.
	  
		andrew% cd ~/desktop
		andrew% mail
	  
	  2.  Save the appropriate mail message into a file. In the
	      following example, the header command lists the headers of
	      a user's mail messages. The user saves message #2 into a
	      file named whatsup.doc.
	  
	      &h
	       U 1 fred@sun1      Fri Jan 19 10:09   41/1043  message from bill
	       >  2 dick          Fri Jan 19 15:37   68/2362  What's Up Doc?
	      &save 2 whatsup.doc
	      "whatsup.doc" [New file] 68/2363
	  
	      If you do a Custom -> Rescan, you will see the Interleaf
	      document icon is now your desktop. DON'T open it yet - goto
	      step 3 below to edit out the mail header and any other extra
	      text first.
  
	Using a mailtool (SunView):

	1.  Open the mailtool and Show the appropriate message.  
	2.  Save the appropriate mail message into a file in your desktop
	    directory. For example, type the following at the mailtool
	    "File:" prompt:

		 ~/desktop/whatsup.doc

	    then hit the Save button. If you do a Custom -> Rescan, you
	    will see the Interleaf document icon is now your desktop.
	    DON'T open it yet - goto step 3 below to edit out the mail
	    header and any other extra text first.

	Using a mailtool (OpenWindows):

	1.  Open the mailtool and View the appropriate message.  
	2.  Save the appropriate mail message into a file in your desktop
	    directory by entering the pathname of the file in the "Mail
	    File" field (e.g. ~/desktop/whatsup.doc) and pressing the "Move"
	    button.

	    If you do a Custom -> Rescan, you will see the Interleaf
	    document icon is now your desktop. DON'T open it yet - goto
	    step 3 below to edit out the mail header and any other extra
	    text first.

	The next four steps are the same whatever mail environment you use.
	
	  3.  In a shell window, edit the file on your desktop.
	  4.  Delete all lines up to the line <!OPS, Version = 8.0>. 
	      This must be the first line of the file in order for it 
	      to convert back to an Interleaf document.
	  5.  Save the file.
	  6.  Back in Interleaf, open the file icon on your desktop. 


4.27	How can I email a Postscript version of an Interleaf doc?

	You create a PostScript version of the document and email that -
	useful if your recipient doesn't have Interleaf but does have a
	PostScript printer.

	Procedure
	---------
	If you don't have Postscript set up as an option on your printer
 	menu, you have to print to Printerleaf then filter the Printerleaf
	to Postscript as follows:
	
	1. Print the document to a Printerleaf file
	   ( Print -> Document -> <Printerleaf> )
	   The Printerleaf file will be placed on your desktop.
	
	2. INTERLEAF 4:
	 
	 /interleaf/tps4.0/sysio/ps/pl2ps -T pslw+ < printerleaf_file > ps_file
	
	   INTERLEAF 5:
	
	 /interleaf/ileaf5/bin/pl2ps -i printerleaf_file -o ps_file
	
	3. Mail the PostScript file. 
	
	   The recipient must delete everything up to the line 

     	     %!PS-Adobe-


4.28	How do I stop a document from opening once it has started?

        Hit CTRL-G to cancel the open.


4.29	How can I get Revision Bars to stay on when I'm working in 
	a document - I don't want to have to keep turning them on all 
	the time.

	To get Revision Bars to appear wherever you add new text in a
	document, set the text property to "persistent Rev Bars" when you
	first open your document:

	 1. Move the cursor up into the Text properties box in the doc
	    header (probably says something like <Default Text Props> or
	    American-English or at the moment)
	
	 2. Execute Rev Bars -> Persistent from the pulldown menu
	
	This will create a rev bar for every new line of text you write,
	as you write it, even in new components you create.  This is more
	automatic than the old method of turning rev bars ON then typing -
	whenever you moved the text cursor, the rev bars would turn
	themselves off.

	Even with persistent rev bars, they can get turned off if you
	start doing fancy things with text properties, but generally this
	works.

	If you want a record of stuff you remove as well as change and
	add, then you need to look into Revision Tracking, and that's
	another story...


4.30	How do I change the size of the Interleaf desktop on startup?

	The default size of the desktop when you run Interleaf 5 under
	OpenWindows is annoyingly small. You can change the size of the
	window in two ways - using the -geometry startup option or by
	adding a line to your .Xdefaults.

	-geometry startup option
	------------------------
	
	/interleaf/ileaf5/bin/ileaf -geometry 1062x869+0+0
	
	This will give you a window the full height of the screen, 
	with an icon-sized gap on the right hand size.

	.Xdefaults
	----------
	Add the following line to your $HOME/.Xdefaults file:

   	Ileaf.geometry:	1141x869+0+0

	This makes the desktop window cover the whole screen top to
	bottom, and leaves an icon-width strip down the right-hand side of
	the screen for all your other OpenWindows applications & tools.


4.31	How do I save the state of my desktop from one session to the next 
	(so containers etc are left open)?

	Use the command-line argument -restore when you start up
	Interleaf. This will open the desktop in the state you left it
	at the end of the last session, complete with open containers &
	documents.

	[So long as all open documents are saved, Interleaf should let
	you exit in the normal way. It won't let you exit with unsaved
	open documents - you get the message "Cannot Exit the desktop
	until you Save or Close these documents".  So all you do is
	save without closing, then exit.]


5.	Platform-Specific questions


5.1	DEC VMS

	Note: Most of this information can be found in the RELEASE NOTES.


5.1.1	What are the most common issues users encounter when installing and
	configuring Interleaf 5 on DEC VMS?

	To install Interleaf 5, a minimum of 20K free disk blocks is required
	on the system disk.  This is used as temporary file storage in
	SYS$UPDATE during VMSINSTAL.  This is temporary file storage, not
	permanent.  Should the installation fail due to insufficient disk space
	on the system disk, some files may be left kicking around in
	SYS$UPDATE.  These should be deleted prior to rerunning VMSINSTAL.

	In some cases, Interleaf 5 gets installed with incorrect file
	ownerships and file protections.  The installation procedure attempts
	to set the file ownership to SYSTEM.  This will fail if the identifier
	[SYSTEM] does not exist.  This can be fixed by setting the files
	ownership to [1,4], and resetting file protections to WORLD
	READ/EXECUTE.  For example:
		$ SET FILE/OWNER=[1,4]/PROT=W:RE disk:[dir...]*.*;*

	If the Interleaf top level home directory is created prior running
	VMSINSTAL, WORLD protections must be set to READ/EXECUTE.

	If running TPS4 and Interleaf 5 concurrently, do not change the IWS
	symbol definition for Interleaf 5 as this is called for other routines
	such as PRINTER_INSTALL and LICENSE_INSTALL.

	Do not install FMU in the Interleaf 5 hierarchy.  This will cause
	problems with LICENSE_INSTALL and possibly other routines.


5.1.2	What can I do to increase the performance of Interleaf 5 under VMS?

	Some performance gains can be acquired by properly tuning the system.
	Adjusting working sets so that the Interleaf user has access to all
	available free memory can help.  This can be done by doing the
	following:

	Run WSMAX.COM to find out how large the SYSGEN parameter WSMAX can be
	set.
	    $ @IWS5$BIN:WSMAX
	Add the value that WSMAX.COM provided to MODPARAMS.DAT

	    $ SET DEFAULT SYS$SYSTEM:
	    $ EDIT MODPARAMS.DAT
	(add or modify the value of MIN_WSMAX to the one provided by WSMAX.COM)

	Modify the UAF records for the Interleaf user(s) by setting their
	WSEXTENT to be equal to the value supplied by WSMAX.COM

	    $ RUN AUTHORIZE
	    UAF> MODIFY user/WSEXT=XXXXX !where user = the Interleaf username
		and XXXXX = WSMAX
	    UAF> EXIT

	Now run Autogen to set the SYSGEN param WSMAX and reboot
	    $ @SYS$UPDATE:AUTOGEN SAVPARAMS SETPARAMS
	    $ @SYS$SYSTEM:SHUTDOWN
	When the system comes back up, these changes should be in place.


5.2	DOS

5.2.1	How is the performance of Interleaf on the DOS platform?

	One may assume that since Interleaf is often slow on a workstation,
	it must be unbearable on a DOS machine.  "Not so!", say the DOS
	Interleaf users.  Bob Morris reports that his 33mHz 486 with 8MB
	memory and a 12ms IDE disk is faster than his SPARCstation 1.
	Note that most workstation users have to deal with multitasking
	operating systems that do not dedicate 100% of their cycles to
	running Interleaf, plus they often NFS-mount the executables and/or
	the data.  A workstation with a fast local disk would be a different
	story.


5.2.2	How can I run stuff from the command line under DOS?

	With I5 DOS all of the filters and print programs are implemented as
	Dynamic Link Libraries (DLL's).  This means that the command line
	invocation requires a slight twist.  All of the same I5 programs exist
	(pl2ps for example) but have an extension of ".i5".  These files must
	be run from the command line with the loader "i5load.exe".  The way to
	run the filters is then (while cd'd to \ileaf5\bin):

    C:\ILEAF5\BIN> I5LOAD PL2PS.I5 -v -ppd NULL.PPD -i docname.pl -o docname.ps



6.0	Interleaf 6

	Interleaf 6.0 offers very little absolute new functionality
	over Interleaf 5. The release is mainly intended to offer a
	system more easily used by people familiar with X-windows and
	Microsoft Windows.

	A brief personally edited list of some typical differences,
	written by Bob Morris, follows.  For how to get more detailed
	information, see the Appendix below.

	a. The UI is conformant to Motif and incorporates some Windows
	   features.

	b. Multiple property sheets can be open at one time.

	c. Online documentation is hypertext, based on WorldView.

	d. Search and Replace is improved.

	e. Editable text can be rotated 90 degrees.

	f. Initial content of componets can call Lisp functions for
	   computationally determined content, e.g. the current date.

	g. Printer administration is simplified.


7.0	Cyberleaf

	Cyberleaf is an Interleaf product for the creation and
	management of Webs in the WorldWide Web.  It translates
	to HTML (the WWW format) from several popular formats,
	including WordPerfect 5.x, Microsoft Word 6.0, Interleaf,
	plain text, and (without change) HTML.  The software allows
	a point-and click creation of hypertext links, translates
	links from those source documents which support them, and
	arranges for the deposit of the resulting Web in a
	specified location.  Styles in the input document can be
	mapped to particular HTML styles at the choice of the user.

	The Unix version of Cyberleaf 1.0 was released in
	February, 1995.  Requirements:

		Sun Sparc2/IPX (or greater)
		under Sun OS 4.1.x, or Solaris 2.x
		24mB RAM, 65mB disk, 64mB swap

		HP 700/8xx
		under HP-UX v9.x
		32mB RAM, 65mB Disk, 64mB Swap

		IBM RS/6000
		under AIX 3.2.x
		32mB RAM, 64mB Disk, 64mB Swap

		Dec AXP 
		under OSF/1
		48mB RAM, 64mB Disk, 64mB Swap
	
	Cyberleaf version 2.0 is available for Windows NT and Windows 95.

	Cyberleaf and other Interleaf product information is available
	on the Web at http://www.interleaf.com.


7.1	Cyberleaf + Interleaf 6.2

	A package bundling Cyberleaf 2.0 for Windows NT/95 and Interleaf 
	6.2 for Windows NT/95 is available from Interleaf.


8.0	Intellecte/BusinessWeb

	Intellecte/BusinessWeb is an application template that
	provides a web browser user interface to Interleaf RDM
	repositories and WorldView collections.  Once installed,
	BusinessWeb runs on top of an HTTP server.  When users
	visit a specific URL, they are taken to the BusinessWeb
	homepage and then navigate to a Search page.  This is
	how users "extract" documents from the RDM or WV locations.
	Files matching the query string are returned in a list.
	The files are either downloaded to the user's disk or
	viewed in a helper application.

	Intellecte/BusinessWeb 1.2 is currently shipping on 
	Sun OS 4, Solaris, DEC-AXPOSF, HP-UX, IBM-RS6000.
	Clients running a browser on any platform can use
	BusinessWeb.  The platform lists refers only to
	where the server can be installed and run from.

	Customers' Web administrators can modify all the source
	code and HTML files shipped with BusinessWeb to create a
	site-customized solution.

	BusinessWeb CheckIn is an add-on component to BusinessWeb
	that allows users to not only check out files from an
	RDM repository from their browser, but also check new
	files in.
