OPTIONS / DEFINITIONS

Buttons for RTF Composition Styling - (most normal ones)

• Font Name/Size - Tries to find and load all legitimate font styles your computer allows, like Arial, Times New Roman, for example, for you to select.  We also have a font size drop down box that gives choices from 6 to 72 point type
• Easy to Read - If just doing text for an email or similar usage, one left side top button "LG," converts all to large 17 point type.  Or adjust with Aa
• Styles - Bold, Italics, Underline, Strikeout, any combination that the font type allows.  Also add many colors
• Clipboard Output- f11 sends just text to the clipboard, as for emails, f12 sends text with font, size, bold etc, color, f8 sends html code for most items except pictures and tabs (tabs do not seem supported in html), Alt-C send rtf code
• Open / Save Files - of course.  Opens and Saves for either rtf files or any type of text files, as ".txt" or ".csv"
• Pictures allowed to be loaded or copied to this Composer, but can only be saved as an rtf file.  Pictures do not go to the clipboard along with the text or other formatting for any choice of f12, f11, f8.  However, of course Alt-C will get RTF

Conversion and Spell Check Pull Down Menus ("Convert" Pull down menu.  Full Spell Check f7 under "Edit"

General Rules: (for most items - except "Paragraph Spacing"):  Highlight text to just do that text.  If no highlight, it might do all or ask you your preference

• Paragraph Spacing, 1 or 2 lines between - Note, this is not double line spacing, but the spacing after a paragraph.  A paragraph may be many lines long of word wrap until the hit the enter key. Then it is a paragraph. Changes document.
• Extreme Word Wrap - Honors 2 carriage returns in a row, as a paragraph. But replaces single returns with a blank
• Fix Some Spell Errors - This is a custom dictionary by ourselves that tries to handle some of the most common spelling and format errors with respect to American written English.  It looks for small "i"s to go to Capitals, also contractions like can't and won't.  It also looks for sentence beginnings that it thinks may need a capital and asks you.  It also will modify spacing between sentences to 1 space (new) or 2 spaces (old method).  It also looks for end quote errors and asks you
• British/American Spelling Dictionary - Custom again.  Not prefect, but asks you on changes if you wish. 1800+words.  Can work either direction.  Since we often see spelling from both countries, it is easy to get confused on spelling
• f7 Full Spelling and some Grammar Microsoft Dictionary - Borrowed from Microsoft, and is not inherent in our software.  Works perhaps if you have Microsoft Office installed.  Not sure if other requirements are needed. Works for us

Upper Drop Down Box Additional Options

There should also be a help file included.

SPECIFICATIONS

• Font Type Choices: Tries to load all legitimate fonts on your computer into a selectable drop down box (like "arial")
• Font Size Choices - Sizes from 6 to 72 points, which is quite tiny to quite huge
• Document Number of Characters: A little over 2 gigabytes (we believe) we have used this out to over 25 pages
• Color Choices - 25 - in upper pull down menu.  Primary colors listed on top.  Color choices selected for easier transport to other systems, such as email
• Picture Handling - Only as an rtf composer and saved files.  Pictures can be loaded, indeed, from file or clipboard and they allow you size them suggesting a standard size.  And the result can be saved to file including pictures as an rtf file.  However, pictures are not now sent to clipboard except perhaps for the alt-c option of rtf to clipboard.  The issue?  rtf, rich text files handle pictures very differently than html which is often the standard other places.  Some complex word processors we agree make this translation. We do not as yet offer that.
• Printing Capability - Not much work is done on this.  It likely will print something, but will not follow the font types or sizes and may have other issues.  We admit that only small effort was done on printing so far.  We tend to use this program as a composer with its final usage in emails, articles, chapters of books
• File Save Check (new Dec 11,2015) - When you exit, if the text length or rtf length is different, it will ask about file save
