Documentation improvements

All BlueCielo products are supplied with documentation that consists of an Administrator's Guide, a Configuration Guide, a User's Guide, or a combination, depending on the complexity of the product.

All manuals are available in either Microsoft HTML Help (CHM format for on-screen viewing) or Adobe PDF format (for on-screen viewing or printing). Most manuals are available in both formats. Manuals that are available in Adobe PDF format are provided in both LTR and A4 page sizes for optimal printing and are not copy protected.

All manuals provide on-screen cross-reference hyperlinks for convenient navigation to related topics. The Microsoft HTML Help files can be opened with context-sensitive links (press F1 or click Help or click the button on the toolbar) from appropriate locations in the programs and from shortcuts in the Windows Start menu.

The following improvements have been made to the Meridian Enterprise documentation.

• The following documents have been updated, expanded, and corrected:
• BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise 2012 Administrator's Guide
• BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise 2012 Configuration Guide
• BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise 2012 User's Guide
• BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise 2012 Developer's Guide
• BlueCielo .NET SDK Reference Guide
• BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise 2012 Release Notes
• BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise Supported Software
• BlueCielo Meridian Advanced Project Workflow Module Configuration Guide

• BlueCielo Meridian Email Manager Configuration Guide
• BlueCielo Meridian Transmittal Management Module Configuration Guide
• BlueCielo Meridian Transmittal Management Module User's Guide
• BlueCielo Web Parts Administrator's Guide
• BlueCielo Web Parts User's Guide
• All of the manuals that are available in Adobe PDF format can now be installed on the Meridian Enterprise server by the setup programs. The documents are automatically detected by PowerUser and added to the Help menu for easy access. You can install other supplemental documentation as described in the BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise Administrator's Guide.
• The application links section of the BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise User's Guide has been considerably revised.

• Installation checklists with related topic hyperlinks have been added to the Meridian Enterprise, Publisher, Global Collaboration Framework, and Explorer administrator's guides.

• The VBScript Reference appendices of the BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise Configuration Guide have been moved to a new manual, the BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise VBScript API Reference.

This was done to:

• Accommodate the growth of the VBScript API.
• Acknowledge the VBScript API as the primary method of customizing BlueCielo products, superceding the COM and .NET APIs, which will continue to be supported.
• Recognize the typical division of responsibilities and skill sets between users who configure BlueCielo products and users who customize the products using programming languages.
• Make the VBScript API Reference more convenient to print alone as a hardcopy desk reference.
• Make VBScript information easier to find.

• The BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise Supported Applications document has been renamed toBlueCielo Meridian Enterprise Supported Software. This was done to better reflect the supported Meridian Enterprise modules, operating systems, database management systems, web browsers, and languages that are listed in the document. The document now also contains the current support life cycle status of the products in the BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise product suite. This information was previously found in the BlueCielo Products Life Cycle Policy document that has been largely replaced by the BlueCielo Customer Guide to Support Services.
• The BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise Release Notes (this document) has been shortened by eliminating information about versions that are no longer supported.
