Viewing, printing, and saving files
Viewing, printing, and saving files
AlphaSmart Manager for Dana works with all AlphaWord files on each connected
Dana. With AlphaSmart Manager for Dana, you can retrieve AlphaWord files to view
them, or you can print them or save them as text (.txt) or rich text format (.rtf) files,
either selectively or as a group.
When you retrieve files, empty workspaces appear in the File Contents list with a light
gray checkbox, which you can’t select. Files that contain text appear with a black
checkbox. The gray checkbox is a visual clue that the workspace or file doesn’t contain
any data, and therefore can’t be viewed, printed, or saved.
When working with a group of Danas connected to an AlphaHub, you could save or
print well over 240 different files (30 devices multiplied by 8 workspaces each), which
can take a considerable amount of time. You’ll discover what’s normal for your system,
but typically, allow at least 10 minutes or as long as 45 minutes to save or print files
from 30 AlphaSmart devices. The size of individual files can also affect transfer times.
Typically, large files take significantly longer to save and print.
