<div> </div>
<div>I am one of your new members, and, as I am sure will not surprise you, I have a few questions/problems actualizing your software.</div>
<div><strong><font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR:#ffff00">1)</font></strong> I am not, nor can I be, connected to the Internet. I communicate with you <em>via</em> one of our libraries. Therefore, I need to be assured, once again, that I need no such connection to run this software for producing professional papers. I don't care about <strong><u>optional</u></strong> sub-programs.</div>
<div><strong><font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR:#ffff00">2)</font></strong> I am using <strong><u>Windows XP</u></strong> in my computer. I seem to recall your stating somewhere that I MAY need some special Windows sub-program installed, in order to get your stuff to work. How do I tell if I have this, and if I don't where do I get it?</div>
<div><strong><font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR:#ffff00">3)</font></strong> Your Protext layout seems a great improvement on the WinEdt stuff I have been using. But I need some kind of trouble-shooting guideline. I am sure I will have to buy one or more of your technical manuals, as I previously (20 years ago) found to be essential. Do I do this through this website, or elsewhere?</div>
<div><strong><font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR:#ffff00">4)</font></strong> In the interim, is there such an abbreviated trouble-shooting manual in what I already have?</div>
<div><strong><font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR:#ffff00">5)</font></strong> To begin at the beginning, do I need to specify, at the start of my articles, any "use" of font packages, ANSI installation, etc? Or is there a default setting for this?</div>
<div><strong><font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR:#ffff00">6)</font></strong> I notice there does not seem to be any provision for stating "affiliation" after my name. Do I include this in "name" after a linebreak? Or what?</div>
<div><strong><font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR:#ffff00">7)</font></strong> There are a bunch of little downward-pointing arrowheads beside various line numbers. Do each of these mark some kind of error? Or are these something more general?</div>
<div><strong><font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR:#ffff00">8)</font></strong> Perhaps most important, you seem to have a function available to provide a preview of (.pdf?) final text, for highlighted regions of the .tex compilation. I can't get this to work at all. Is there some extra mumbo-jumbo?</div>
<div> </div>
<div><strong> THANX,</strong></div>
