Introduction (top)

RepliGo™ represents a breakthrough in document conversion technology and mobility. In a matter of seconds, virtually any document you have on your PC can be transferred to your handheld device while maintaining the document’s original look and feel. This includes Microsoft® Office documents, Adobe® PDF files, Web pages and hundreds of other formats. Once on your device, documents can easily be viewed, printed, and shared with others using the supplied RepliGo Viewer.

RepliGo offers two methods of converting your documents.

1.	RepliGo Menu and Toolbar: This allows you to use the RepliGo menu and toolbar buttons within Microsoft® Office applications to quickly convert Office files. A toolbar button for converting Web pages with Microsoft® Internet Explorer 5.5 or above is also included.
2.	RepliGo Printer: Use the File > Print command in your application to “print” to the RepliGo Printer for conversion. These operations are discussed in greater detail later in this guide.

Once the document has been converted on your desktop computer, it can then be synchronized with your handheld device and viewed using the RepliGo Viewer.

Installation (top)

Follow the steps below to install RepliGo on your desktop computer and handheld device.

Note: You must be logged in with an Administrator account on the local machine to install RepliGo.

Step 1.	Quit all other applications.
Step 2.	Double-click the self-extracting executable file on your desktop computer. This file can be found in the directory you specified during the download process.
Step 3.	Choose the type of installation. (See Figure 1). For more information about registration click here.
Figure 1: The RepliGo Setup Installation Mode dialog
Step 4.	Follow the onscreen instructions.
Step 5.	In the Installation Options dialog, choose which components you would like to install. (See Figure 2). See the Note below for more information about these options.

Figure 2: The RepliGo Setup Installation Options dialog

Note: If you plan on converting Microsoft® Office documents such as Word, Excel, or PowerPoint® files into RepliGo documents for viewing on your handheld device, leave the Microsoft® Office Integration checkbox checked. This will install the RepliGo menu and add the RepliGo toolbar inside these applications which automates the conversion process. If this checkbox is unchecked or you do not have a copy of Microsoft® Office 97 service release 2 or above, these features will not be installed. You can still convert Office documents using the File > Print command and choosing RepliGo from your list of available printers.

If you plan on taking static “snapshots” of Web pages from Microsoft® Internet Explorer for viewing on your handheld device, leave the checkbox for Microsoft® Internet Explorer Integration checked. This feature adds a toolbar button inside Microsoft® Internet Explorer which automates the process of taking Web pages and converting them to be viewed on your handheld device. This application does not create a live connection from your device to the Internet.

Step 5:	Continue to follow the onscreen instructions. RepliGo Viewer will be installed automatically on your handheld device at the time of installation or the next time it is synchronized with your desktop computer.
Step 6.	Choose to launch the ReadMe file and/or the RepliGo Desktop Window for important product information, technical issues, support, and links. (See Figure 3).

The RepliGo Desktop is installed on your desktop computer and is launched at the end of the installation if the Open RepliGo Desktop checkbox is left checked. It can also be started by clicking Start > Programs (or All Programs under Windows® XP) > RepliGo Desktop. There will also be a shortcut to it on your desktop if you chose to add the shortcut during installation. (See Figure 4).

Figure 4: The RepliGo Desktop Window

The RepliGo Desktop serves as a quick reference point to important information, conversion and program settings, links to technical support, documentation, demos, sample files, uninstall, registration, the About box, and the ReadMe file.

Registration (top)

Registering RepliGo is a simple process. You must register the product on the desktop computer. Once the 14-day trial period has expired, registration is required to continue to use the product.

Registering RepliGo on the desktop computer:

Follow the steps below to register RepliGo on the desktop computer:

1.	Obtain a Registration Code by purchasing RepliGo. Once the transaction is complete, you will receive an e-mail which includes your Registration Code. Click here to purchase RepliGo now.
2.	Open the RepliGo Desktop by clicking Start > Programs (or All Programs under Windows® XP) > RepliGo Desktop.
3.	Click the Settings button.

Note: You may also register by clicking the About RepliGo button on the RepliGo Desktop or by starting a document conversion. You will be prompted with the dialog above before each conversion prior to registering.

Document Conversion (top)

Converting Microsoft® Office documents:

RepliGo is tuned to convert Microsoft® Office documents in an intelligent and innovative manner. To make working with and reading these documents a pleasant experience on handheld devices, RepliGo provides an add-in for Microsoft® Word, Excel and PowerPoint® which not only simplifies the conversion process, but allows it to optimize the document translation from these applications.

After installing RepliGo and choosing to include the Microsoft® Office Integration during the installation, you must agree to accept the RepliGo Add-in to allow for the application integration. (See Figure 7). This dialog is displayed the next time you start Microsoft® Word, Excel, or PowerPoint® depending on your macro security settings.

Figure 7: The Macro Security Warning dialog

Click the Always trust macros from this source checkbox and then click Enable Macros. This screen verifies that you are trusting the source of the macro and it can be installed on your desktop computer. You will not see this dialog again once you have enabled the macro.

By choosing to include the Microsoft® Office Integration during the installation and enabling the RepliGo macro, the installer also inserts the RepliGo menu (See Figure 8) into Microsoft® Word, Excel, and PowerPoint® if those applications are present on the desktop computer.

Figure 8: The RepliGo Menu inside Microsoft® Office applications

Additionally, the RepliGo toolbar (See Figure 9) is installed for quick conversion of your document with the current settings. A convenient button launches the RepliGo Desktop Window for access to important information, program settings, links to technical support, documentation, demos, uninstall, and the ReadMe file. (Some links require a live Internet connection to access).

Figure 9: The RepliGo toolbar

Conversion steps:

1.	Open an existing Microsoft® Office document
2.	On the menu bar, choose RepliGo > Send to Handheld…
3.	Use the Convert Document dialog to change any settings for the conversion. Click OK to begin the conversion. (See Figure 10). Figure 10: The Convert Document dialog Click the Options button to set additional settings. These include showing a notification message once the conversion is complete, as well as an option to save an additional copy of the RepliGo converted document to a location on your desktop PC. (See Figure 11). This is useful if you would like a copy of the file to reside on your desktop PC as well as your mobile device. Figure 11: The Options dialog
4.	The conversion progress dialog (See Figure 12) is displayed during the conversion of the native Microsoft® Office document into the corresponding RepliGo document. Figure 12: The Conversion Status dialog Figure 13: The Conversion Finished dialog
5.	Once the conversion is complete, the file will be sent to your handheld device the next time it is synchronized with your desktop computer.

Converting Web pages from Microsoft® Internet Explorer 5.5 or above (top)

RepliGo installs the Microsoft® Internet Explorer integrated toolbar button if the checkbox for that option is checked during installation. The button is added to the toolbar inside Internet Explorer and gives you quick and easy access to converting Web pages and sending the file down to your handheld device.

Follow these simple steps to convert a Web page to a RepliGo document.

1.	Using Internet Explorer 5.5 or above, browse to the Web page you wish to convert and send to your handheld device.
2.	Click the RepliGo toolbar button. (See Figure 14).
3.	Synchronize your desktop computer and handheld device.

RepliGo will now have a “snapshot” of the Web page that was converted. You can view the Web page as you would any other document type. Note: Hyperlinks are not kept active.

Figure 14: The RepliGo integrated toolbar button

The RepliGo Printer: (For converting documents other than Microsoft® Office or Internet Explorer documents) (top)

When converting documents that are not Microsoft® Office or Microsoft® Internet Explorer Web pages, you must use the RepliGo Printer. This special printer is for converting files other than native Microsoft® Office documents. (See Figure 15)

Figure 15: The RepliGo Printer

Open your original document in its native application and launch the Print dialog (usually File > Print) and select the RepliGo printer. The conversion process takes over and creates a corresponding RepliGo document.

HotSync your desktop computer with your handheld device to ensure that the new RepliGo document is sent to your device.

For each document you want to convert, open it in its native application and repeat the steps above.

Your files will now be converted for viewing on your handheld device. Once synchronized with your desktop, the new files will be accessible in the RepliGo Viewer.

RepliGo Viewer (top)

RepliGo Viewer resides on your Palm OS® based device. It synchronizes and receives the documents that are converted on the desktop computer and displays, navigates, manages, and prints your RepliGo files.

Start RepliGo Viewer on your handheld device by tapping the RepliGo icon. This will launch RepliGo and display the existing RepliGo document on your device in a list view if RepliGo Viewer does not currently have a file open.

RepliGo List View

When you start RepliGo Viewer it shows your converted documents in a list view. (See Figure 16).

Figure 16: The RepliGo List View

From the list view you can:

1.	Choose which document to view by tapping its name
2.	Sort by Name, Date, Size, or Creator (original document type, if known)
3.	Choose which files to display in the list view by choosing a location (All Documents, Handheld, or Memory Card)
4.	Beam the document to another device
5.	Set preferences on opening last viewed document at start up and setting the memory card folder location of where to look for RepliGo documents by default.
6.	Delete a file

Viewing RepliGo Documents

To view RepliGo documents, simply tap on its name from the list view. RepliGo Viewer displays the document in Whole page view. (See Figure 17).

RepliGo Viewer has several views to help you navigate and read your document easily. The views are listed below.

1.	Whole page view: (See Figure 17) Shows the document’s entire page and retains the document’s original look and formatting.
2.	Zoomed view: Shows the document zoomed in to a specific area of the page.
3.	Flowed view: Shows the document by “reflowing” or re-wrapping the document to fit the screen size and optimizing the text to a comfortable reading size.
4.	Rotated view: Shows the document rotated 90 degrees. (Only available on Sony Clie models equipped with Silkscreen Virtual Graffiti area)

Each of these views will be discussed in greater detail later in this guide.

Figure 17: Whole page view

Document Navigation

There are several tools available to help navigate through a document. These tools are designed to make reading, zooming, and managing documents an easy and pleasant experience.

The following list explains each of these tools:

Marquee selection: From Whole page or Zoomed views, use the stylus to marquee select an area of the document you wish to zoom to for viewing. Press down and drag the stylus from the top-left corner to the bottom-right corner of the area and release. (See Figure 18).

Figure 18: Whole page view marquee selection

The area that was selected by the stylus is now shown on the screen. (See Figure 19).

Figure 19: Marquee selection result

Back and Forward arrow buttons: Use these buttons to navigate through previous views of the page. Similar to a Web browser, these buttons allow you to move back and forward through prior zoom levels, page views, or pages of the document.

Note: The back and forward buttons do not record the Hand tool movements. Thus you cannot return to prior views based on the Hand tool movements.

Full page button: Use this button to show the current page in full.

Flowed tool: Use this tool to switch to Flowed view and intelligently “re-wrap” the document's text to fit the screen size for easy reading.

This view makes for easily readable text by resizing the text if necessary to a comfortable reading size. You can reflow the document while in either Whole page or Zoomed views. (See Figure 19).

Figure 20: Flowed view

TIP: Another quick way to switch to Flowed view is to simply tap an area of text that you would like to read. This will automatically reflow the text to fit the screen size. Tap images or photos on the page, and it zooms to that object.

Zoom Selection button: Use the Zoom selection button to zoom to an optimal level. The zoom levels range from 10% to 300%. Tap the button to display the percentages and choose a new zoom level. A highlight indicates the current zoom level.

Hand tool: Tap the hand toolbar button and use the stylus to move the page in any direction. This tool is only available in Zoomed view.

Paging buttons: Tap the Paging button to display the page numbers in multiple page documents. A highlight indicates the current page. Tap a different page number to jump to that page.

The small arrows on both sides of the Paging buttons allow you to navigate to the previous page or next page.

Rotate button: (available only for Sony Clie models equipped with Silkscreen Virtual Graffiti area) Tap the Rotate button to display the current page in a 90 degree rotated view. All the regular functions of RepliGo Viewer are still available in Rotated View. This view is especially helpful in viewing PowerPoint slides, reading large amounts of text, and landscape oriented pages. (See Figure 21).

Simply tap the button again to return to the normal portrait oriented view.

Figure 21: Rotated view

Scrollbars: Scrollbars allow for both the vertical and horizontal navigation (up and down and side to side) through the document.

Printing from the RepliGo Viewer (top)

RepliGo Viewer supports printing to infrared enabled printers manufactured by HP (Hewlett-Packard). The Palm OS® based handheld device must have infrared capabilities either integrated into the device or as an add-on component.

Devices that support Bluetooth such as Palm's Tungsten T and the Sony Clie NZ90 can print via Bluetooth to an HP Bluetooth enabled printer. See your device's documentation.

Text in documents printed from RepliGo Viewer is printed at a high resolution. Some graphs, charts, photos, and other images may have lost some of their original quality in the conversion process due to compression.

Infrared Printing

To print a RepliGo document from your handheld device to a compatible printer follow the steps below.

1.	Open a RepliGo document in RepliGo Viewer.
2.	Tap the Menu button on the Palm Graffiti area 3.
3.	Choose File > Print from the menu. This will launch the RepliGo Print dialog. (See Figure 22). Figure 22: The Print dialog
4.	Choose the range of printing by selecting the appropriate radio button under Page Range.
5.	If you do not want to print images and only wish to print text, uncheck the Print Images checkbox.
6.	Check the Reverse Print Order checkbox if you wish to print your document starting from the last page and printing in reverse order. On some printers, this allows your hardcopy pages to be in the correct order when finished.
7.	Tap OK when you are satisfied with the print settings.
8.	Align your handheld device’s infrared port with the infrared port on your HP infrared enabled printer. The handheld device and the printer should be no more than 3 feet apart.
9.	RepliGo Viewer will search for the printer. (See Figure 23). Figure 23: Establishing connection with infrared printer
10.	Once the printer is found, the information is automatically sent to the printer for processing. (See Figure 24). Figure 24: Sending data to the printer

Beaming RepliGo Files (top)

RepliGo allows you to beam your documents to another Palm based device. Also, Pocket PC devices can receive beamed RepliGo documents from Palm based devices and vice versa. Since RepliG0 files are cross-platform, the files that were converted and beamed from a Palm based device can be viewed on the Pocket PC based device.

To beam a document to another Palm based device follow these steps.

1.	Start RepliGo Viewer on the handheld device.
2.	From the List View, select the document you wish to beam by selecting the checkbox next to the file name.
3.	Click the RepliGo title button and choose Beam…
4.	Align the infrared ports on both devices.
5.	Follow the onscreen instructions on both devices to complete the beaming of the document.

Notes:
The receiving handheld device must have the RepliGo Viewer installed to view the document.
Devices that support Bluetooth such as Palm's Tungsten T and the Sony Clie NZ90 can beam files to other Bluetooth enabled handheld devices. See your device's documentation.
