Each of the Personal Composition System software tools has a manual that teaches how to use the tool. This manual will teach you to use of Cg Compose 2 software. It also includes a separate chapter on each one of the output devices and a quick reference section describing the set up of output devices. If you are already familiar with the Personal Composition System you may want to turn to Chapter 3:Cg Compose 2 Reference, to learn about the software enhancements. If you are new to the Personal Composition System, you should follow the steps listed below. 1 Go through Chapters 1 and 2 in the Lisa Office System Manual for an introduction to the Lisa. This includes booting the system with LisaGuide and completing the interactive training. 2 The Lisa Office System Manual also contains other information about how to use your System. For example, it has a trouble shooting section to help you solve problems when the System is not working as it should. As you become more familiar with the System and need more information, check the Table of Contents or the Index for assistance. This may include installing software, setting Preferences, using the calculator, tips on caring for the Lisa, and other desktop management activities. 3 When you are familiar with Personal Composition System basic operating procedures, turn to each of the foo/ manuals to learn the essentials of using that tool. To learn Compose you will have to know at least the LisaWrite and LisaDraw tools. Go to Chapter 1 of each tool manual to learn about a tool. Go to Chapter 2 for self-paced instructions on using a tool. Go to Chapter 3 for specific instructions for performing a task with a tool. “"VYYVY When you feel confident that you can create documents in LisaWrite and LisaDraw you will be ready to learn Cg Compose 2. Go to Chapter 1 of this manual to begin learning about the Compose tool. 5 Your Personal Composition System may be set up with a number of different output devices. You can identify the devices and where they are connected by opening your System Preferences. General instructions for checking and changing device connections are found in the Lisa Office Systems Manual. Specific intructions for connecting the typesetter or EP 308 are found in Chapter 4: System Set Up, of this manual. Introduction Introducing Compose About This Manual With Cg Compose 2 you can merge text with all kinds of drawings, such as organization charts, diagrams, flowcharts, and graphics for slide presentations. You can assemble page layouts for reports, brochures, pamphlets, and small newspaper productions. The page on your Personal Composition System screen is displayed as it will appear on the printed page. Compose (Cg Compose 2) can assist you in communicating information with professional looking graphics. It is a tool that makes it easy to merge text with figures. After you copy and paste in information from other document tools, you Compose them so they can be output on a typesetter or EP 308. You use the mouse to produce compartments for text, create rules, and move information around on the screen. Text can be added in your choice of size and style to complete the page. This manual contains three approaches for learning to use Compose: i Chapter 1: Learning Cg Compose 2, gives you practice with the basic skills of Compose by taking you step by step through a typical example. @ Chapter 2: Using Cg Compose 2, contains detailed instructions for performing specific tasks with Compose. This Chapter is also a step-by-step guide. It includes three sample jobs that demonstrate how to apply Compose efficiently and effectively. @ Chapter 3: Cg Compose 2 Reference, summarizes the functions of Compose menus and menu items. It covers how each menu item and dialog box works. Chapters 4 through 8 of this manual contain reference information about specific procedures to set up and operate your Personal Composition System. Chapter 4: System Set up, contains preventive maintenance, daily operating procedures, and trouble shooting information that will be of specific help to all Personal Composition System users. Chapter 5 covers installing fonts on to the System. You may only need to use the information in this chapter when you first purchase your fonts. Some of the chapters may refer to the configuration of equipment that is not part of your system. Each Chapter begins with a table of contents so you can look up different topics easily. If you can’t find what you need in the table of contents, check the index at the end of this manual. The index lists many topics in several ways to help you find the information you are looking for—even if your not sure what it’s called.

What You’ll Need To Get Started Seeing What’s On A Disk This Chapter gives you actual hands-on experience with Compose. By going step- by-step through an easy example, you will become familiar with the basic Compose operations. Use this example to experiment with each menu item. Try out several ways to change the text with each new function you learn. Use this time to gain experience and understanding of how Compose works. It’s OK if your screen is a little different than the pictures in the manual, especially if you are developing confidence in using the tool. After completing this chapter you will be able to create, edit, store, and print Compose documents. The material in this manual assumes that you have gone through LisaGuide, which teaches you the fundamentals of using the Lisa. The LisaGuide diskette comes in the Lisa 7/7 package. Instructions for using LisaGuide appear in Chapter 1 of the Lisa Office System manual. Important background information about the desktop is found in Chapter 2 of that manual. Make sure you understand the concepts in that section before going on with this manual. 1 A Personal Composition System set up and plugged in. 2 The Disk set up with Lisa Office System and tools, Compugraphic fonts, and Cg Compose 2 software installed. 3 The system turned on. 4 Abasic understanding of tool operations, especially LisaDraw and LisaWrite. 5 About 45 minutes. Note: If Your System is not set up, or if you need to install the Cg Compose 2 tool, the Cg Compose 2 Examples Folder, or the Cg Compose 2 Software, see Chapter 4 System Set Up, in this manual. To get the document you'll work with, you first need to have a duplicate of the Examples Folder copied on your Disk. An explanation of how to duplicate the folder is in Chapter 4. Open the Disk icon as described in the steps below. The icon you will open may be called the ProFile, Internal Hard Disk, Disk, or you may have already named it something else. When you open the Disk you access information stored on the hard disk. The way you open the Disk will illustrate the most general principle of your Personal Composition System: @ First you select something. I Then you do something to what you've selected. Chapter 1: Learning Cg Compose 2 ll To Open the Disk Icon 1. Select (highlight) the Disk icon by placing the tip of the pointer on it and clicking the mouse button. (Icon not highlighted? Try again.) 2 To open the Disk icon, choose Open “Disk” from the File/Print menu. > Press and hold down the mouse button with the tip of the pointer on File/Print in the menu bar. > Move the pointer down and release when Open “Disk” is highlighted. (Is the Open menu item dim? You probably clicked somewhere else on the gray part of the screen and deselected the Disk icon. Go back to step 1 and make sure the Disk icon is selected.)

Wait a minute—the hourglass means wait—until the Compose tool displays the Annual Report document. The Compose document is made up of several items that may be new to you. Study the Annual Report document below before going to work on it.

Across the menu bar at the top of the screen are the Compose menu names, Each menu contains a list of actions you can use ina Compose document. The Compose tool combines the writing and text editing features of LisaWrite with the drawing capabilities of LisaDraw. Text, spreadsheets, lists, drawings, and other graphics can be cut or copied from other Lisa tools and stored on galleys that are created at the bottom of the Compose window. Compose is a paste-up tool for assembling text and graphics. The most efficient way to work is to perform the major editing in the source tools, and assemble the final page in Compose for the typesetter or printer. A page layout is accomplished by drawing compartments in the Compose document and then filling the compartments with text and figures from the galley. Compartments can be varied in size. They can be individually styled for a page, or you can select to repeat the same layout for each page of the document. When a graphic is placed into a compartment, the text will automatically indent to run around the graphic. Chapter 1: Learning Cg Compose 2 15 16 Practice with Compose Once the page layout is displayed the way that you want it, you may choose to accept the page from the Edit menu. This prohibits any changes to that page unless you choose to edit it again from the Edit menu. When possible you should make stationery pads out of your most commonly used page layouts and store them on micro diskettes. This will greatly reduce your production time and minimize the time you will have to spend setting up your documents. Without pressing the mouse button, move the pointer around the screen and notice that it is shaped like an arrow. In Compose this is how it appears when you move compartments and galleys and select menu items. You will see other kinds of pointers as you go through Getting Started. To enter text into a compartment you will create a the text insertion point by placing the change pointer into the compartment, holding down the [Apple|key, and clicking the mouse button. The shape of the pointer changes to a drawing symbol when you draw a rule or choose Make A Compartment from the Page Layout menu. Imagine you work for a fictional company called Switch-On Communications, Inc. You will put the finishing touches on last year’s Annual Report for the big annual meeting. Text for the Annual Report has been written, edited, and copied as a LisaWrite document. A galley has been created at the bottom of the Compose document on your screen, and the text has been pasted on it through the clipboard. Two graphs and the company logo have been completed in LisaDraw and copied onto three other galleys at the bottom of the Compose document. You will assemble these components into the Annual Report. In the next several pages you will learn to: @ Make compartments. Wl Move a figure to a page. W@ Format text ina galley. @ Merge text from the galley into a compartment. @ Enter text into a compartment. @ Change the typestyle of text. @ Kern text. @ Cut unwanted material from the text. Cg Compose 2 @ Insert a rule into the report. @ Change the Composition Defaults. WB Use Vertical Jusification. Ml Make a Space Block.

I Align and Match I Set Tabs W@ Output the report on an ImageWriter Hi Output the report on a Typesetter or EP 308. @ Change the selected printer @ Put Your Document Away. When you are finished, the first page of your report will look like the three pages tht follow. If you should have trouble with one of the steps as you go through the example, try comparing the Annual Report document on the screen with the finished pages.

Compartments control the position of the text on the page. You make a compartment by drawing a rectangle, just like in LisaDraw. 1 Choose Make a Compartment from the Page Layout menu. Notice how the pointer changes to a drawing pointer when the menu item is chosen. 2 Use the pointer to draw the compartment beginning 1% inches from the top of the page, and 1 inch from the left side of the page. Draw the compartment to the 4 inch mark on the top margin ruler and down to the 9% inch mark on the side, page ruler. » Place the pointer where the upper-left corner of the compartment will be located (see the figure). > Press and hold down the mouse button as you move the pointer down to the 9% inch mark and to the right to the 4 inch mark. A box will appear. > Release the mouse button when you reach the correct size. Chapter 1: Learning Cg Compose 2 21 Duplicating a Compartment Aligning Compartments 22 The text for the report will be set in dual columns so the compartment that you just made must be duplicated and the new compartment must be placed correctly on the page. Follow the steps below to duplicate the compartment and position it on the right side of the page. 1 With the compartment selected, choose Duplicate from the Edit menu. (Pull down the menu, point to the menu item, and release the mouse button.) 2. Place the duplicate compartment 4% inches from the left margin. Align the top edges of both compartments. (Box not in the right spot? Place the pointer into the box and move it into position.) If you have trouble aligning the top edges of the compartments, you may choose a menu item to help you. Notice what happens when you select a compartment. Handles appear on the edge of the drawing, showing that it’s selected. You can change the shape of the compartment by selecting and moving the handles. You may choose more than one compartment at a time by holding down the [Shift] key as you select another compartment. 1 Press down and hold the Shift|key and select both compartments. > Place the pointer on a compartment. > Click the mouse button as you continue holding down the [Shift|key. > Select the other compartment. 2 Choose Align Objects... from the Arrangement menu. 3 Choose Align...

A figure can be copied from LisaDraw, LisaProject, or LisaGraph and pasted onto a galley. It will remain on the galley until you merge it into the Compose document. You will take the graphic from the galley and move it into the Annual Report. It can be placed anywhere on the page. The most dramatic position will be to place it in the middle of the page so it slightly overlaps both columns of text. 1 You may change the rulers to help you with your layout. © Choose Customize Rulers... from the Page Layout menu. > Choose Adjustable Zero-Point: On from the dialog box that appears. > Choose OK. > Click the mouse button on the 4% inch mark on the ruler. Notice that the ruler now displays a 0 (zero). This will help in centering the graph figure.

Press and hold down the mouse button to select it. > Move the pointer to drag the galley onto the page. Release the mouse button when the figure is centered between the compartments. The upper left corner will be positioned automatically where the mouse button was released. You may move it around by selecting it. Note: The figure should be correctly sized before it is brought into Compose. You can not change the size or content of a figure after it has been pasted on a Compose galley. Desk _File/Print Edit Type St mob Text that is created in LisaWrite, LisaCalc, and LisaList can be copied and pasted into a Compose document by placing it first ina galley. While it is being stored in the galley you may change the typestyle, point size, and compress the text by adding character compensation or kerning. By applying these format attributes to text when it is in the galley you can determine how it will appear before it is placed into a compartment. You can always select blocks of text on the page and change them after you have merged it into Compartments. 1.

You can insert a word break manually to change the automatic hyphenation of a particular line. You can turn off the automatic hyphenation for the whole page in the Composition Defaults dialog box. 1 As you scroll through the Annual Report look at each line and choose a hyphenated word, or a sentence that has a large gap and could be improved if a hyphen were placed differently. Because there are so many factors that determine line endings, it will be difficult to say where the unstisfactory word breaks may be in your Annual Report. Place an insertion point at another place in the word where it might be better to make the hyphen. > Press down and hold the [Apple|key. > Click the mouse button. 2 Choose Insert Word Break from the Format Text menu. The word will now hyphenate where you have chosen. There are certain limits to how much you can change the hyphenation. The control you have over these limits is in the word and letter space settings that you make in the Composition Defaults. If you choose to allow more word and letter space, you have a wider range of control. If you do not want a word to hyphenate, you may place a word break before or after a word. If the entire word will fit on the line, the word will not be hyphenated. 3 To remove the word breaks you've inserted, choose Delete Word Break from the Edit menu.

It also guides you, step-by-step, through several real-life examples. To get the maximum value from the chapter, you should try out the examples on your Personal Composition System as you go through it. Major Compose features are covered in the examples. A complete description of each Compose operation can be found in Chapter 3: Compose 2 Reference in this manual. Before you begin this chapter, be sure you have completed the interactive LisaGuide, and Chapter 1: Learning Cg Compose 2 in this manual. Chapter 1 introduces you to Compose Operations. To complete this tutorial, you will need: @ The Cg Compose 2 Stationery paper that is on the Disk. @ The sample documents in the Examples Folder. You should have duplicated the Cg Compose 2 Examples Folder onto the Disk. Instructions for this procedure are found in Chapter 4: System Set Up. When you have finished learning Compose, you will probably want to throw the Examples Folder into the Wastebasket to make room on your Disk. If you need it again, you can duplicate the original folder that is on the micro diskette. You should understand the following procedures before beginning this chapter: How to move the pointer around the screen using the mouse. Hi How to open menus and choose menu items. W@ How to select text or objects on the screen. @ How to open and save documents. @ How to change the size of a window and move it around on the desktop. @ How to prepare text in LisaWrite. Wi How to make LisaDraw figures. lf How to copy and paste documents. @ How to scroll the window to see different parts of the document. - The arrow symbol appears before each activity in the chapter and indicates “Do something.” For example, > Turn the page to learn more about Cg Compose 2. Cg Compose 2 The Cg Compose 2 Window Cg Compose 2 Terms This Chapter is divided into two parts. The first part briefly explains basic Compose concepts. The second part contains three examples of work you might perform on your Personal Composition System. Each example gives directions for accomplishing specific tasks. These tasks illustrate important points. You may use Chapter 2 as a reference guide when you want a reminder on how to doa specific task or when you want more information about a particular subject. You can look for specific topics and procedures in the index. To use Cg Compose 2 you must understand the basic concepts and terminology associated with the Compose document. The basic operations that you perform in Compose, such as selecting, scrolling, entering text, changing text and formatting text, are similar to those you have learned in LisaWrite and LisaDraw. With Compose you will take these operations several steps farther. You will learn to have even more control over the final product—your document. When you create and edit Cg Compose 2 documents, the desktop looks something like the figure below.

Pointer Used to select, move, create, stretch, shrink, or reshape objects on the desktop. Compartment Rectangle used to position text on a page. Design Page... Used to set the format of the next page after you have accepted the current one. Rule A horizontal or vertical line. Galley A temporary storage area for moving figures and text into Compose. Rulers Used to help layout the page. Scroll bar Controls that allow you to move the document within the window to see different parts of it. Compose lets you merge graphic figures with text. Compose documents may contain figures such as drawings, company logos, graphs or flowcharts. Figure objects include graphs and anything you draw—lines, circles, graphs, boxes, etc. Text consists of material pasted in from LisaWrite, LisaList, LisaCalc and the fonts displayed on the screen, including letters, numbers, symbols, and punctuation. With Compose you can layout your text with multiple columns, perform cut runarounds, indents, and other page layout functions that cannot be performed ona standard typewriter or word processor. Many of the operations performed in Compose are accomplished by choosing an item from a menu. The Compose menus are listed on the menu bar shown in the previous figure. A description of all Compose menu items is found in Chapter 3: Compose 2 Reference To choose a menu item, move the pointer to the menu bar and position it over the name of the menu, press the mouse button and hold it down. Notice that the menu is displayed. Move the pointer to the menu item you want to select. When the item is highlightled, release the mouse button. Some menu items have an Apple symbol and a letter beside them. As a shortcut you can hold down the [Apple] key and press the letter to select a function rather than choosing the item from the menu with the mouse. Refer to Appendix 2, Apple Keys, in this manual, for a list of menu items that you can choose using the Apple key. Cg Compose 2 Some menu items are followed by an ellipsis (. . .). When you choose one of these menu items, you must respond to a dialog box before the item takes effect. (Dialog boxes are explained below.) When a menu item is shown in gray instead of black, it cannot be chosen at that time. This is usually because it does not apply to the current selection. Some menu items are grouped together and represent the available choices for a particular menu setting. The current setting has a check mark next to it. If you choose another setting, the current one automatically turns off. Choosing one of these menu items excludes the ability to perform other similar operations. For instance, the same text cannot be both Bold and Plain at the same time. Other menu items have check marks when they are on, but they can also work with other menu items. For example, you can use Bold and Underline at the same time. When you do, both items will be checked on the Typestyle menu. In this case, choosing Plain Text turns off both Bold and Underline. A few menu items such as Group Objects or Lock in Place, show check marks when they have been selected and are on. The reselection of the same item will turn them off.

Depending on what you are doing, the pointer can have any of the following shapes: The check pointer is used to make choices within a dialog box. The hourglass appears when you must wait while the Lisa finishes a task. The arrow pointer appears when you can make changes to the screen display. It is used for view controls, menu items, selecting icons, and moving figures around on the desktop. The drawing pointer appears when you draw a rule or make a compartment. The text pointer appears when you have pressed the [Apple|key and clicked the mouse button in a compartment. When the text symbol is activated, there is an insertion point marking where the text will appear in the compartment. To work on a passage of text or a graphic object, you must indicate what you want to change or alter by selecting it on the screen. To select something place the pointer on it and click the mouse button. This is an important concept: you must always select the text or figure before you can edit or format it. When you press the key and click the mouse button to select a point of insertion, a vertical bar blinks to show where the next typed character will appear. This vertical bar is called the insertion point. The text pointer temporarily disappears (it reappears as a text pointer when you move the mouse). Any previously selected text is deselected. If you try to select a point at the bottom of a document or in a blank area and can’t, there is no text to be selected. You can place the insertion point after the last text and press to move the insertion point down, or you can press the spacebar to move the insertion point to the right across the page. After selecting text, you can type new text to replace the selection or you can choose a menu item to edit or format the selection. For example, to replace a misspelled word, select the word and type it correctly. The table on the next page explains how to select a point of insertion, one or more characters, or a text passage of any length. Selected text is highlighted on the screen; however, highlighting doesn’t print. Cg Compose 2 Compose Paper To Select Text Insertion point One or more characters Select everything Deselect Extend the selection To Select Objects Figures, lines, etc. Multiple objects Do the Following Move the pointer to the desired location and press the key as you click the mouse button. Move the pointer to the left of the first character. Press the key. Press and hold the mouse button. Pull through to the last character and release the mouse button. Choose Select All of Document from the Edit menu. This selects the text and objects. Click the mouse button when the pointer is in a blank area of the document. Move the pointer to the end of the text you want included in the selection. Press and hold the key and click the mouse button. Do The following Move the pointer so that it touches the object. If the object is filled, you can move the pointer anywhere inside the object. Click the mouse button. Be sure you don't move the mouse while clicking. Handles appear to show that the object is selected. Press the key and hold it down. Move the pointer to each object you want to select and click the mouse button. Handles appear as the objects are selected. Release the [Shift}key. In Compose, you can choose three kinds of paper from the Page Layout menu. @ Plain paper is completely blank with no grid lines. @ Grid paper has grid lines that are useful as a visual drawing aid. Use grid paper to position objects and text manually. @ Auto-grid paper also has grid lines. Everything you draw will snap to these grid lines automatically, as if the lines are magnetic. The auto-grid is useful when you are drawing charts or anything that has to be aligned perfectly. Chapter 2: Using Cg Compose 2 55 The Compose Page Linking Compartments 56 With a Compose document you may edit only one page at a time. You must accept the contents of the page you are on before you can change the contents of another page. This is done by choosing Accept Page from the Edit menu. You then go to the new page and click the mouse button on it. Text can only be entered onto the Compose page by placing it into a compartment. A compartment is made the same way as drawing a rectangle in LisaDraw. You must choose Make a Compartment from the Page Layout menu. Each block of text or figure that you copy and bring into Compose from another tool must be placed on a galley. You draw a galley in the lower part of the Compose document. You must draw seperate gallies for holding text and figures, then assemble the text and figures on the page. You merge text from a galley into a compartment by selecting the galley and dragging it up to the compartment. Release the mouse button when the pointer is in the compartment you are filling with text. You can link a galley with several compartments on a page, so that text will merge into one compartment from the galley and then automatically begin filling the next compartment. First create a blank galley at the bottom of the page. Place the pointer onto the galley. Press and hold down the mouse button. Drag the galley into the first compartment and release the mouse button when the arrow is on the compartment. The galley will change shape and become the same length as the compartment. When you bring the text galley into the first compartment, text will fill that and all other compartments that are linked with it. This procedure allows text to be composed as it moves from the galley into the compartment, and back to the galley again if the compartment size is changed. You may break the association link between compartments on the same page by choosing Break Compartment Links from the Page Layout menu. When you choose Accept Page from the Edit menu, the link between the galley and the compartment is broken. Because the association is no longer active, if the compartment is made smaller, the text will automatically flow onto an overflow galley, which appears in the galley area. The contents of a galley can be merged into the next compartment that is associated with that galley. Cg Compose 2 Page Size Group Objects Lock Objects Changing Shapes Entering and Editing Text When you tear off a piece of stationery for the first time, you see a Page Size dialog box that you must complete. The decisions you make will be carried with the document and with duplicates of the document. The Compose document Page Size designates the intended output size of the paper (letter or legal), the graphic resolution (high or low), and the mode, of output (landscape or portrait). In the Format for Print dialog box you must match the attributes of the page size to output the document. You can paste material from one size page to another size page to change the output resolution, mode or length of paper. Note: The EP 308 can only output bigh resolution pages You can select several objects and treat them as one single object by grouping them. This technique is used when you want to move or change all the objects as a single unit. Later, if you want to edit parts of the group, you can ungroup the objects. They will be separate again. You can also choose Align Objects... from the Arrangement menu to straighten selected objects. The dialog box that appears gives you the added choice of matching existing characteristics of some of the items selected. You can lock selected parts of a document into place. Once locked, these selections cannot be changed, deleted, or moved until you unlock them. In Compose, you can stretch or shrink any compartment, space or rule. You can make it wider or thinner, taller or shorter, or change both dimensions at the same time. The way an object changes when you stretch or shrink it depends on which of the handles you move when the figure is selected. When you enter text, you type it for the first time. When you edit text, you add to, rearrange, replace, or remove existing text. Compose allows you to enter new text and edit text that is already in the document. You can type in Compose without worrying about the length of the line. As you type, any word that exceeds the right compartment edge automatically moves down to start a new line at the left margin. This feature is called word wrap. You press the[Return|key only when you want to start a new paragraph. Text wrapped together in one paragraph is treated as a unit for many Compose operations. For example, when you add or remove text from a wrapped paragraph, all gaps between the text and the compartment edge are readjusted automatically. If you change the size of the compartment, the text realigns between the new borders. Chapter 2: Using Cg Compose 2 57 58 Format Text When you create, edit, and format a Compose document, its contents can be viewed as groupings of text, paragraphs, and pages. W@ Zext is a group of one or more characters, including letters, numbers, symbols, punctuation, and nonprinting, characters such as spaces, tabs, and paragraph returns. Some Compose operations, such as cutting, copying, and replacing text, work with any amount of text that you select in a document, whether it is part of a word in the middle of a line, a sentence in the middle of a paragraph, two paragraphs, or the entire document. @@ A paragraph is a group of text that ends with a paragraph return character. A paragraph return character by itself is also a paragraph. (A paragraph return character is the result of pressing the [Return]key.) Some of the formatting styles available in Compose work on a paragraph-by-paragraph basis such as the selection of alignment. @ A page is text and figures that will print on one piece of paper. Compose has special formatting features for pages. Page length, page numbers, repeating page layout formats, and single page editing create style attributes associated with pages. Formatting text determines the appearance of your document by specifying the fonts, paragraph alignment, and page design. You can set the document format you want before entering text, or you can change it after you've entered text. Format attributes result from selecting the operations from the Edit, Typestyle, Fonts, and Format § menus. From the Composition Defaults... dialog box on the Edit menu you choose letter, word, and line spacing, as well as automatic and manual hyphenation. This dialog box displays the settings in effect for the current page you are editing. The Format § menu allows you to choose paragraph alignment, set tabs and vertical justification and control the word breaks. The menu item Compress Text allows you to apply book set, ad set, or tight set Character Compensation and text or designer Kerning to make the text tighter on the page. The type used in a document is chosen from the Typestyle and Fonts menu and applied to text that has been selected. The size of the characters is chosen from the Typestyle menu, and the typeface is chosen from those available on the Fonts menu. This is applied when text is first entered into Compose by choosing Change Fonts in Galley from the Fonts menu, or it can be added later when the text is edited. Cg Compose 2 Tabs The top of the Typestyle menu is displayed in the same arrangement as the LisaWrite Typestyle menu with the variations of Plain Text, Underline, Boldface, Italic, Subscript and Superscript. The bottom section of the menu shows the available type sizes including the ability to indicate sizes other than those shown on the menu. The Fonts menu contains the typefaces Apple Classic and Apple Modern and the typefaces purchased from Compugraphic. You can display 14 typefaces on the menu at one time. You may have up to 100 typefaces on the Disk. Fonts can be accessed from the disk by the menu item, Replace Menu Fonts. After you have finished a page, and accepted it in the Edit menu you can choose the method of designing and filling the next page from the Page Layout menu. The Design Page... item allows you to maintain the same format parameters as you continue, or to change them as you style a new page. When you change a page format, the new attributes will be applied to all of your work until you change them again. The Design Page... dialog box allows your work to be uniform, but gives the flexibility to change the layout if you choose. @ Setting Format Styles Before Entering Text: Before you start typing, you can choose the formatting styles you want from the various menus. The settings you choose become active at the current insertion point. When you type, your text automatically conforms to them. To increase your production speed, you may want to make many of your format decisions when you are working on your source documents with the other tools. ‘Typestyle, size, and paragraph alignment can be applied to your document when you are working in LisaWrite. These attributes will carry over into Compose. Wi Changing Format Style of Text In Compose: To change the format of text displayed in the middle of a document, highlight the text you want to change, and choose the format item you want. The format attributes set in the Composition Defaults... dialog box apply to the entire page. @ Standard Format Settings: The blank stationery pad that comes with Compose has some standard format or default settings. To change settings or set specific Compose formats, including the design of your own stationery pads, see Typesetting A Memo in this Chapter. In Cg Compose 2 you can set tabs to line up information. If you have a source document that already has tabs, the material will remain in tabs when it is moved into a compartment. Chapter 2: Using Cg Compose 2 59 Page Layout Design Page The Horizontal Paragraph Ruler The Vertical Page Ruler 60 You set tabs in a Compose document the same way you set them in LisaWrite. You bring the ruler to the screen. Place the pointer on the line of text where you will set the tab stop. Press the key and the mouse button. With the insertion point blinking in the text, you mark the type of tab stop at the location you wish on the ruler. When you press the [tab]key on that line, text moves to align with the tab stop. You can set Left (normal), right, center, decimal and comma tab stops. You can use fill patterns to place repeating characters on the page between text that is in tabs. Layout is the assembling of graphic elements on the page. It is the positioning of text, rules, headers, footers, and figures on the page. The Compose document layout is performed by drawing compartments and placing figures on the page. Text is then merged into the compartments from galleys. The page layout is changed by using the mouse to move the position of the compartments. Text placed on the screen is viewed the way it will appear on the printed page. What- you-see-is-what-you-get. To expedite the production of your documents it is best to have a specific plan in mind when you begin to layout a page. The Personal Composition System allows for considerable experimentation and ease in changing document display. However, your ability to plan ahead in assembling components will greatly simplify your work. The manipulation of compartments and figures is the most fundamental page layout operation. You also can insert Rules on your page and use Space Blocks to leave room for adding artwork that can not be pasted onto a galley. Compartments can be shaded, and brought to the front, or sent to the back as you do in LisaDraw to hide or crop figures. When you choose Design Page... from the Page Layout menu, you can designate the compartment layout on the new page to: 1) repeat from the current page, 2) repeat from the preceding page, or 3) copy a page layout that has been placed on the clipboard. If you want the fext in a compartment to repeat on all pages, such as for a header or footer, you can designate that the compartment and contents Repeat on All Pages from the Arrangement menu. The Horizontal Paragraph Ruler is used to set tabs and help position compartments and margins on the page. It appears when you choose Show Rulers from the Page Layout menu. By checking items on the Customize Rulers... dialog box, you can change and redefine the measuring increments that display on the rulers. The vertical page ruler is used to set vertical justification and measure the placement of compartments, figures, margins, headers, and footers. You bring it to the screen by choosing Show Rulers from the Page Layout menu. Cg Compose 2 When you use the vertical page ruler, the basic Compose screen changes to look similar to the figure below. This figure shows only the top half of the page ruler. When you choose Customize Rulers... from the Page Layout menu, you can change the incremental scale shown on the rulers.

Output Dialog Boxes ‘You have several options for outputting your document on the Personal Composition System. This includes electronic communication with another system, printing on a dot matrix printer, or EP 308 printer, or typesetting ona Compugraphic 8400, or 8600. The output device is initially connected through the Connect Devices dialog box of the Preferences icon. The appropriate device must be indicated in the Format for Printer dialog box before each printing cycle output. You may select a device as the Default in the preferences. This will allow the device to remain selected in the Format for Printer Dialog Box. Directions for making the correct device connections are given in Chapter 4: System Set Up. For an example of the sequence of steps you must follow to change the output device connections, see Chapter 1: Learning Cg Compose 2.
