Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I print out the LiveInk text?
A: The latest version of ClipRead enables you to print the LiveInk
output in 2 or 3 columns. You can also use the "Print Columns" utility
to copy LiveInk formatted text into an e-mail or word-processing
document.
Q: Can I read the document I transformed offline?
A: You can go offline and read the parsed text as long as you keep your
ClipRead application open. In the coming months, an upgrade version will
permit you to save special LiveInk files that you can open and read offline.
Q: What should I do if I experience technical problems?

comments are very valuable to us. If the application freezes, and an error
message appears, please make note of the error message and the
circumstances of the problem and e-mail the information to us at

- If you are a non-for-profit organization or educational
organization (e.g., www.yourorganizationname.org or

ClipRead and/or the patented LiveInk "poetic-prose" formatting

published (public domain material should NOT be reformatted
and published in LiveInk format without our expressed,
written permission).

the web or sent to others).
