Darn it, Peter! There goes our private beer fund! (Smile) Will this command also write protect the file in the same way as release Templates? George. -----Original Message----- From: duxhelp-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:duxhelp-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Peter Sullivan Sent: 27 March 2006 15:22 To: duxhelp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [duxhelp] Re: HELP files George, The "stripping" option is available to all, but undocumented. dbtw /RemovePageInfo <templatefilename> Will strip out printer and embosser setup information. We didn't include that in the command-line summary because I felt it would be confusing to people to even try to explain what it means. - Peter -----Original Message----- From: duxhelp-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:duxhelp-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of George Bell Sent: Monday, March 27, 2006 5:27 AM To: duxhelp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [duxhelp] Re: HELP files Hi Jack, Peter and Joe will correct me I am sure, but to all intents and purposes any Template which has "- basic" after the name, such as "Danish - basic", is simply a basic Template, but pointing to the appropriate Language Translation Table. If you want more information about the Language Translation Tables, these are defined in much more detail within the Language Translation Tables Help Topic. Where a Template does NOT have "- basic" appended, such as "Irish" for example, any refinements will normally be found by looking at the "initial" style for that Template. This "initial" Style embraces the whole document and sets up defaults for every document using that Template, hence you will not see any Codes within the document itself. The whole Templates issue has been very much a moving feast of late, especially since all the "- basic" Templates have only recently been added, plus a few more which have been supplied from local sources, "Irish" being just one. Consequently this section of Help does still require some additional explanatory work before release. I should just re-itterate what Peter says, in so much as NO embosser or paper size information is attached to a Duxbury "Release" Template. And before you ask (smile), I should also expand on this. If you CREATE a new Template locally, then it WILL contain embosser and form size information. This is intentional design, since the vast majority of users will design a Template for their own use where they actually WANT this information. However, in cases where a Template is designed for distribution with the original software, Irish being a classic case in point, Duxbury use a very special in-house process to strip out the superfluous embosser information. After all, there is no point in supplying production release DBTs with a Template set up for an E.T. embosser when the user actually has an Index. And to qualify this further, please do not expect to be able to bombard Duxbury with all manner of Templates for "stripping" unless you are either a very large multi-user customer, or have a few shillings in your pocket to pay for the service. That said, perhaps in a future version of DBT, we might see an option to allow this, but certainly not in the current iteration. George. -----Original Message----- From: duxhelp-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:duxhelp-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jack Maartman Sent: 27 March 2006 03:00 To: duxhelp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [duxhelp] Re: HELP files It's a good idea all the same, especially if it is one one knows little about. This is the first pre-release with a large number of templates, which I am sure will be sorted out before release.
