Conventions
When using MAPware-7000, there are usually several ways to perform a task. For example, if
you want to copy a graphics object, you can:

click the Copy command on the Edit menu

click the Copy button on the Standard toolbar

press the CTRL+C keys on your computer

In most cases, we will describe each method when the task is introduced. The menu method is
then used whenever the task is used in later procedures. Other conventions used in this manual
are listed in the following table.

Convention

Meaning

Bold

Characters that you must type exactly as they appear. For example, if you are directed
to type a:\setup, you should type all the bold characters exactly as they are printed.

Italic

Placeholders for information you must provide. For example, if you are directed to
type filename, you should type the actual name for a file instead of the word shown in
italic type. Italics are also used to indicate a glossary term.

ALL CAPITALS

Directory names, files names, key names, and acronyms.

KEY1+KEY2

A plus sign (+) between key names means to press and hold down the first key while
you press the second key.
