€€INTRODUCTION This file is designed to show you how to use ²Saxon Publisher's³ Imbedded Text Commands when creating text files in WordPerfect. If used effectively, this useful feature can increase your typesetting efficiency significantly, and will reduce the time required to produce many documents. In order to fully understand the use of these commands, please follow these steps carefully: 1. First examine this text file closely, noting especially the format of the blocks of text that appear and the relative positions of the various Imbedded Text Commands that are illustrated. It is suggested that you have your program manual handy and open to the Editing Text section in order to be able to refer to the various text commands. 2. Once you have examined this file, please run ²Saxon Publisher³ and load the file called "ImbeddedTextCommands.SP" from the Examples Disk. 3. Next, load the "ITCStyleSheet" stylesheet file by selecting 'TypeStyle©>Load StyleSheet'. 4. Load this text file by first selecting 'External©>Import Textª>WordPerfect', and entering "ImbeddedTextCommands.WP" as the file name. 5. Once this file has been imported into ²Saxon Publisher³, insert it into the text boxes in your document. The various paragraphs will automatically be reformatted as specified by the Imbedded Text Commands found in this WordPerfect file, according to the formatting parameters specified in the associated style sheet. The remaining portion of this file discusses the use of ²Saxon Publisher's³ Imbedded Text Commands in detail, outlining their use and drawing your attention to important points.œ @sbody text The first thing that you should note is that the above paragraph does not contain any imbedded text commands. When it is inserted into ²Saxon Publisher³, these paragraphs will be rendered in the prohgram's default 'BODY TEXT' style. This particular paragraph will also be rendered in the 'BODY TEXT' style since the text command appearing on the first line specifies it. Note these important points about the style definition command. @sbullet 1.œ First of all, the style definition command must appear alone on a line of text in WordPerfect. It is placed at the beginning of the line and is separated from the paragraphs immediately preceding and following it by carriage returns. 2.œ As you can see, it is not essential that a blank line precedes the style command, but it is essential that the first paragraph following the style command begin immediately on the line following the command. 3. œ Since a style definition named "bullet" was specified at the beginning of this list, all of the numbered items in this list will appear in the "bullet" style when the text is inserted. The program scrolls through the ²Tag List³ searching for a style tag named "bullet". If it doesn't find one, any associated paragraphs will be rendered in the default 'BODY TEXT' style. This is why it is important that you load the appropriate stylesheet before you load a file containing imbedded text commands.œ 4. Note that a style command does not have to be specified at the beginning of each paragraph within a document. As it inserts the textÜjÜ file,² Saxon Publisher³ renders all paragraphs in the type style that was last specifiedœ. For example, if, in the creation of this document, we did not specify any more style definitions, all paragraphs following the "bullet" tag would be rendered in the 'bullet' style. This point will become more readily apparent to you as you read the rest of this file. @sBODY TEXT Note that we have now reverted to the 'BODY TEXT' style. When specifying style commands, it is not important whether the command is written in upper or lower case. However it is important that the name of the style tag begins immediately after the commandœ. For example, in the command found at the top of this paragraph, there is no space between the "S" in the command and the "B" in "Body". There is a space between the words "body" and "text", and this is because the style tag was defined that way when it was created. There is no limit to the number of times that the style command can be used in a document; The only factor that is limiting you is the number of defined style tags contained on your stylesheets and the amount of available memory. The following paragraphs will illustrate the use of the other imbedded text commands available in ²Saxon Publisher³. The remaining commands are imbedded within your actual paragraphs, and are not subject to the placement restrictions found when using the style definition command. The supported embedded text commands allow you to @Bboldface certain words as required@b, @I italicize words as required @i and @U underline words as required@u. Provisions have also been made to allow you to @>superscript certain words@=, or, alternatively, to @Alter Current'@n.œ As a final demonstration, we will recopy the first part of this WordPerfect file using ²Saxon Publisher's³ Imbedded Text Commandsœ. When you insert this file into the example document in ²Saxon Publisher³, compare the following section with the the one that appears at the beginning of this file. Both have been boldfaced in order to make it easier for you to compare them: @sTITLE INTRODUCTION @sbody textÜjÜŒThis file is designed to show you how to use ²Saxon Publisher's³ Imbedded Text Commands when creating text files in WordPerfect.

It may seem at first that the implementation of these commands in your WordPerfect file is no better than reformatting the paragraphs individually when you are ready to typeset your document. However, you will soon realize that these commands are not as complicated as they initially seem, and their use will soon become second nature as you are become more comfortable using² Saxon Publisher.³ and have built up a library of stylesheets. œ
