Tips and Hints

Q. When I try to print pages with coloured text the words do not come out.

A. Try altering your printer options in your browser. Internet Explorer, for example, usually defaults to print colours as black and white but the Netscape default is not resulting in coloured text appearing blank.

Q. Having set the print options to print colour as black and white I still do not get coloured text to print.

A. We are aware of a problem with HP Laserjet 5 print drivers and Microsoft applications whereby coloured text is missing. Try installing the Laserjet 4 driver and using that instead.

Q When I print a page with a wide table I lose the data along the right hand side.

A. Try printing the page or selection as landscape rather than portrait.

Q. Can I install this product on our corporate Intranet server?

A. No. If younwish to do this you must purchase a Multi-user license for the full Digital Brown Book from Data by Design Ltd.

Q. Can I add this product or any part of the product to a public access web site?

A. No, however, you may wish to provide a link to this site from your own.

Q. When I open the book I only get a single page with no contents to the left or title at the top.

A. Your browser probably does not support frames. We recommend you upgrade your browser to a more recent version that does. Copies of Internet Explorer for Windows 3.1, 95 and NT are provided on the CD-ROM. Alternatively use the navigation bar at the bottom of each page to move around.

Q. Is there an easier way of starting the Brown Book without opening the file each time?

A. Once you have the opening page loaded in the browser create a Book-mark or add to Favourites. In future simply select the Brown Book from the list provided that the CD-ROM is in the drive.
