| RepliGo 2.0 for Microsoft® Smartphone User Guide |
|
|
|
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 Microsoft® Smartphone 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 Microsoft® Smartphone, documents can easily be viewed 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 Microsoft® Smartphone
and viewed using the RepliGo Viewer. |

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 toolbar
button 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. For Office 2000, XP, and 2003, the toolbar allows such
features as hyperlinks and bookmarks to be recognized in the original document
and translated to the RepliGo version.

After installing RepliGo and choosing to include the Microsoft®
Office Integration during the installation, you must agree to accept the RepliGo
macro 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).

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. Hyperlinks are kept active when using the RepliGo menu or toolbars inside
I.E. 5.5 or higher. To learn more about hyperlinks in RepliGo documents click

Hyperlinks
RepliGo keeps hyperlinks from web pages, Word, Excel, PowerPoint,
and PDF files intact. (See Figure 27). This means you will be prompted to allow
for the device's default browser or email client to launch and attempt to connect
to the specified URL or send email if it is an email link.
To activate a hyperlink, open the document in the viewer, choose
Menu > Go to > Hyperlink. Use the D-pad to navigate to the hyperlinks on
the page and use the Action button to choose the link. A confirmation screen will
appear asking if you would like to follow the hyperlink.
RepliGo recognizes internal or "named anchor" links
within the same document and jumps to the appropriate location specified by the
internal link.
*Notes:
1. Image maps (images with hyperlinks) in Word are not recognized.
2. RepliGo does not provide a live connection to the Internet.
3. You must use the RepliGo integrated toolbar button inside Word, Excel, and
PowerPoint for hyperlinks to be converted and recognized.
4. "mailto:" links are converted and recognized as email links and the
Viewer will attempt to launch the default email client.
