SOME NOTES ABOUT THE EDITOR
10
Some notes about editor 1. The page heading as
well as the main text can be changed. This is
useful if a lecture title or sequence has changed
because the change also appears as the link on
the preceding page 2. The editor is quite
inflexible in dealing with text fonts cannot be
retained on pasting and font-size is limited to
the categories of headings in the box shown as
normal on the menu bar. 3. Double line
spacing is introduced where there is a return in
the original text. Much of the tweaking involves
this problem. It is overcoming by deleting the
offending line in the editor and then pressing
return with shift pressed. 4. Sub- and
superscripts and greek letters can be added 5.
When tables in the original are created by using
the tab key they do not carry over well. Much
better is to have the original formatted using
the table function in Word. Then the table
imports well by pasting and the properties of the
table can be edited in the editor (table editing
features on menu become active)
