VERSION NOTES
-----------------------------------------------------------

These are the enhancements for Version 1.5.1 of the IBM
Advanced Linguistic Search Plug-in for Adobe, organized by
driver levels:

ALS_20130822
   . Error in packaging (hclxinst.exe) prevented IbmAls running
     correctly when the Reader was operating as a plug-in for the
     selected browser

   . IbmAls now runs under some 'protected' browser environments


ALS_20130318
    
   . Some PDF topics extend over a number of pages.  
     Acrobat/Reader can only display the highlighted hits 
     of one page at a time. Therefore in the event of a 
     topic containing hits across multiple pages a suitable
     message and a secondary list box is displayed, 
     allowing the user to quickly access the other pages 
     containing  search hits.
     ref. Incomplete highlighting of hits in (multipage) topic 
                                                           (Defect 4965)
     ref. Report number of hits being displayed            (Defect 4958)

   . On some installations the 'About' page (an HTML file) 
     is not created and displayed correctly.
     This has now been rectified, and the location of the 
     associated 'temporary' file has changed to one 
     unlikely to be affected by access restrictions 
     introduced by other (non-IBM) applications
     ref.  About page problems on some installation of 1.5 (Defect 4952)

   . The use of a single dialog for setting the Search 
     parameters and displaying the results of a Search, 
     resulted in the loss of information about these 
     parameters when viewing the Search Results. 
     Appropriate informational text has now been added to 
     the Search Results dialog.
     ref. Search parameters listed when search results displayed  
                                                           (Defect 4959)

   . Long PDF titles would cause the initial display of the
     Search dialog to be excessively wide.
     The appropriate steps have been taken to ensure that 
     such titles are now correctly 'wrapped'.
     ref. Long PDF titles cause Search dlg to be excessively wide
                                                           (Defect 4961)

   . Differences in the word delimiting parameters used by
     the IbmAls indexing system and that adopted by 
     Acrobat/Reader can sometimes result in the message 
     "Failed to locate Search Term in Selected Topic".
     This message will still appear, but IbmAls will now
     scroll to the page containing the (non-highlighted) hit.
     ref. Change action  "Failed to locate Search Term in Selected Topic" 
                                                           (Defect 4962)

   . When a new search results in the display of the same 
     page as the last search, then the highlighted hits are
     not refreshed -- i.e. the hits of the previous search 
     remain highlighted. 
     This has now been rectified, and only the hits of the 
     current search are highlighted.
     ref.  Search Hit Highlighting Nit                     (Defect 4951)


ALS_20120826
   . The IBMALS User Interface is now based on wxWidgets
     and is no longer dependent on the (unsupported) Adobe
     Dialog Manager 

   . The Search Dialog can now be re-sized and moved in the
     usual (Windows) way

   . 'Paste' of the Search Terms into the 'Search Term:' 
     box, is now supported (as is 'Copy' etc.)
     ref. Default 'paste' operation does not work 
          in Srch Win                                      (Defect 3453)

   . Pageup/PageDown keys now work within the Search 
     (Results) list
     ref. Pgup/PgDwn Search Results                        (Defect 3370)

   . The Scroll Arrows in the Search Results dialog and in
     the Page Display window now respond to the normal 
     'continuous-scroll' operation (ie. keeping the button 
     depressed).

   . Selection of a topic hit (in the Results pane) is no
     longer adversely affected by the size of the Topic
     Title.
     ref: Results Dlg.  Long entries need two clicks       (Defect 3430)

   . Multiple Acrobat sessions are now supported,
     i.e. those started with "<path>\Acrobat.exe /n" or
     with "<path>\AcroRd32.exe /n".
     One search dialog is created per Acrobat/Reader 
     session which contains the Title of the PDF document
     that is open and being searched.  Similarly the user
     is warned if they attempt to open more than one dialog.
     ref: Search only operates on 'last opened' PDF        (Defect 4079)

   . When launched from the Library Server, with "Exact 
     word any case" or "Exact word and Case matched", 
     IBMALS reversed the criteria when displaying the 
     results. This has now been rectified.
     ref. From LS launch, ALS results for EXACTW vs. EXACTN 
          are reversed                                     (Defect 4899)

   . The IBM Document Indexer tool does not capture 
     'Indexed' words in PDF documents.  Therefore the 
     check box for 'Indexed Words' in 'Where to Search' 
     has been disabled. 

   . Leading blanks in the Search Term no longer causes 
     IBMALS to 'abend'
     ref: Leading blanks in search term cause ABEND in 
          engine                                           (Defect 3706)

   . A large number of 'search hits' no longer results the
     Search Dialog 'hanging'
     ref: Search-selection engine 'freezes' with large 
          number of hits                                   (Defect 3707)

   . Excessively long topic no longer causes the search 
     engine to freeze (or hang)
     ref: Hit recovery freezes for long topics             (Defect 3709)


ALS_20100920
   . IbmALS plugin with Adobe Reader 9.3.3 (or greater) causes 
     LibraryServer and SoftCopyReader to Abend -- with total shutdown of 
     Browser in the case of the former

ALS_20090721
   . When IbmAls is called upon to search a PDF that does not contain the
     necessary Index, a dialog is displayed that reads "This PDF does not
     contain an Index for the IBM Advanced Linguistics Search". When Reader
     (and Acrobat) 9.x is used with IbmAls version 1.4.0, the dialog is not
     displayed and Reader becomes unstable.
     ref. "No index" dialog display causes failure         (Defect 4497)

   . In some cases, the presence of a non-displayable character (/1) in the
     Topic Title (displayed in the Search Results Dialog), results in IbmAls
     failing to find the Topic in the document and results in "Could not
     locate the topic in the PDF Outline tree"
     /1. usually displayed as the "Latin small letter y with diaersis"
     ref. Outline Topic titles that are unicode are not being recognized
                                                           (Defect 4498)

   . When the cursor is 'hovered' over a Topic Title (in the Search
     Results Dialog) that is too long to be displayed, Reader 9.x attempts
     to display a fly-over dialog containing the full Title.  This action
     results in focus changing from the "Search Results" Dialog to the
     "IBM Advanced Linguistic Search" dialog.
     ref. Rollover of long titles -- causes Results dialog to loose focus"
                                                           (Defect 4499)

   . Adobe limits the size of Outline (TOC) entries to 125 characters (if
     the text was entered as Unicode) and 254 (if entered as single-byte
     text).  IbmAls 1.4.0 does not take this limit into account when
     matching a Topic Title with that found in the body of the document.
     ref. Failure to recognize truncated Outline entries   (Defect 4500)


  Known Problems:
   . Some early testers have found that the 'About.htm' button and action
     fails.  This may be related to the number of times the 'About' has 
     been displayed, or if some third party application (e.g. 'Classic
     Shell' from classicshell.sourceforge.net) has affected the
     Permissions Properties for the IbmAls data file directory.

   . Acrobat now allows the user to disable Printing and Editing of the
     PDF by setting a "Permission's" password. Indexed PDFs that have such
     a password set can no longer be searched.
     ref. index unusable after PDF is 'password-protected' (Defect 3527)

   . Enabling an already indexed PDF for 'Reader Usage Rights' adversely
     affects searching in the Reader.
     ref. addition of comments does not affect function    (Defect 3722)

   . In some instances ALS will not be able to accurately determine the
     location of the Topic on the Page, consequently it will display the
     full page.
     ref. Adobe Wordfinder Bug concatenated words          (Defect 3399)
     ref. Fails to find search term in figure              (Defect 3434)
     ref. Fail to locate srch term delimited with u'scores (Defect 3435)
     ref. Topic Titles with Overscore not recognized.      (Defect 3438)
     ref. Fails to find next topic title (==end of topic)  (Defect 3439)
     ref. Figure Data adversely affect Topic Location      (Defect 3441)
     ref. Scroll alignment for some topics                 (Defect 3442)
     ref. Header mistaken for Topic Title                  (Defect 3446)
     ref. Hits in other topic to that indicated in Search  (Defect 3602)

   . Search terms containing the '<' character will produce anomalous
     results. For example "Test<EndTag>" will be treated as a search for
     "Test<" and "EndTag>"
     ref. Search terms containing '<'                      (Defect 3395)

   . Search terms that are terminated by a colon cannot be found.
     ref. Fails to find search terms terminated with colon (Defect 3433)

   . PDF files do not clearly differentiate between words that appear in
     the body of the text, and words that appear in the page header
     and/or footer. Consequently the search will produce false hits if
     a search term is present in the page header or footer.

   . Occasionally Reader (and Acrobat) will appear to be unresponsive,
     and the user will be obliged to wait until the Reader regains focus.


ALS_20071012
  Version 1.4.0
   . When in a 'stand-alone' configuration (ie. Not inside a Web Browser
     page), excessively long Topic titles displayed in the Results Dialog
     no longer need more than one 'click' in order to be selected.
     ref. Results Dlg.  Long entries need two clicks       (Defect 3430)

   . When opening the Search dialog, the cursor is now automatically placed
     in the search entry box. The search action is now activated by the
     Enter key and the 'Search', 'Reset' and 'Help' buttons are now visible
     when the Results dialog is topmost.
     ref. Auto position cursor in search area              (Defect 3603)
     ref. Search should be activated by 'Enter' key        (Defect 3604)
     ref. Adjust positioning of 'Search Results' dialog    (Defect 3786)

   . If the user attempts to search a PDF that was not indexed with the
     IBM Document Indexer tool, the user may now choose to use the Adobe
     search tool, or submit the PDF to IBM for indexing.
     ref. "No DII index" dialog offer Normal Adobe search. (Defect 3609)

   . 'IBM Advanced Linguistics Search' may now be selected from a menu
     activated by "Right-Mousebutton-Click", in addition to the toolbar
     and Edit menu
     ref. New icon / menu entries for version 8.0          (Defect 3627)

   . ALS can now accurately determine the location of the Topic on the Page
     in the following instances:
     ref. Fails to find Topic Title prefixed with a '&'    (Defect 3436)
     ref. Topic Titles with '(' and ')'                    (Defect 3437)
     ref. Topic Titles with embedded punctuation, not recog. (Defect 3440)

   . The 'About' dialog now displays the version of the Indexer used to
     index the current PDF.
     ref. Report index CT level in the 'about' box         (Defect 3867)

   . Search terms containing leading blanks no longer cause the search
     to fail
     ref. Leading blanks in search term cause ABEND.       (Defect 3706)

   . The scroll keys in the Results dialog now work.  This appears to
     be related to an Adobe bug that is now fixed in Acrobat/Reader
     Version 8.x
     ref. Scroll keys in Search Results not work correctly (Defect 3787)

   . Selecting Topics whose title contains an embedded "=" no longer
     cause subsequent selections to fail.
     ref. Page display fails after first search hit        (Defect 3892)

   . PDFs created using Microsoft Word with PDFmaker Version 7.0 have
     Topic Titles that contain a trailing blank. This often causes
     the search to fail in some way. The presence of these abnormalities
     has been accommodated by IBMALS, and such search failures no
     longer occur.
     ref. MsWrd/PDFMaker 7.0 trailing blank in TopicTitle  (Defect 3629)

   . Opening and searching multiple PDFs often resulted in misleading search
     results. As a temporary measure, searching is now limited to the last
     opened (ie. topmost) PDF. Searching another opened PDF will require that
     that PDF be re-opened.



ALS_20060405
  Version 1.2.0, 1.3.0
   . Long entries (ie Topic Titles) in the Results dialog are truncated,
     when the cursor (mouse) passes over such entries the full text
     appears in a 'fly-over box'.  When Acrobat is running inside a
     browser page, this behavior was interpreted as a 'select' and
     consequently the indicated Topic was displayed.
     This behavior has been corrected (however, see Defect 3430 in
     'Known Problems')
     ref. Results Dialog -- Mouse-flyover                  (Defect 3364)

   . When in stand-alone, you could kill the results dialog, and any
     subsequent 'entry and search' from the Search dialog would result
     in a new Results dialog being created. When running in a browser
     window, this behavior was not seen.
     This behavior has been corrected, the search dialog can now be
     're-used'
     ref. Reuse of Results dialog fails in Browser         (Defect 3367)

   . In some instances ALS was not be able to accurately determine the
     location of the Topic on the Page, consequently it displayed the
     full page.
     This behavior is caused by a number of processing errors, the
     following have been corrected:
     ref. Topic titles with mixed emdash, endash, hyphen   (Defect 3394)
     ref. Revision Bar in Topic Title                      (Defect 3397)
     ref. Hyphen with spaces in Topic Title                (Defect 3398)
     ref. Fails to recognize/process (R) in Topic Title    (Defect 3401)
     ref. Topic Title contain 'C++' not recognized         (Defect 3402)
     ref. U'scores in Topic Title not recognized           (Defect 3448)

   . Some search operations (from within a Web Browser) were adversely
     affected by the processing of 'special' characters.
     These failings have now been rectified.
     ref. c?t does not work in browser mode                (Defect 3400)
     ref. Hexed chars (e.g. %26) stripped from PDF URL       (Defect 3413)

   . Internal processing errors would sometimes result in the message
     "Could not locate the topic in the PDF Outline tree" being
     displayed.
     These errors have now been addressed.
     ref. Fails to find valid Topic in Outline Tree        (Defect 3403)
     ref. Need test for "End of topic title"               (Defect 3407)
     ref. Fails to find end of last topic in outline tree  (Defect 3408)
     ref. Topic parent of "1.0" not recognized             (Defect 3420)

   . If, when working in a Browser Session, the Results dialog was
     minimized, then further use of IBMALS was not possible.
     This behavior has now been corrected.
     ref. IBMALS cannot be reused during an LS session     (Defect 3414)

   . There was no on-line help for the IBMALS search.  The search
     methodology and the options available to the user, are identical
     to those in the LibraryServer.  Therefore IBMALS now uses the
     appropriate section from the LibraryServer "Getting Started"
     document
     ref. Add Help -- pntr to LS GetStart, Srch a Doc      (Defect 3416)
     ref. Add 'Help' button to Search Dialog               (Defect 3470)

   . PDFs produced from applications other than Adobe Distiller, sometimes
     use 'unusual' methods to construct the document.  These resulted in
     PDFs that could not be fully exploited by IBMALS.
     The analysis and processing capabilities of IBMALS have now been
     improved to cover these differences in document architecture.
     ref. Fails to find topics in 'brochures'              (Defect 3449)
     ref. Fails to process all forms of page ref.          (Defect 3450)


ALS_20060814
   .  support for launching via the SoftCopy Reader (SCR) Version 3.6
      (SCRV3_081506)


ALSP_20051212
  Version 1.1.0
   . IBMALS is now able to differentiate between Topics
     with identical titles.
     ref. (Defect 3363)

   . The use of Boolean Characters in search terms (as per
     the Library Server Search) is now supported.
     ref. (Defect 3365)

   . Search hits in neighboring topics are now highlighted
     correctly.

LIMITATIONS
-----------------------------------------------------------
*  The IBM Advanced Linguistics Search will only work with
   PDFs indexed with the IBM Document Indexer tool.

   This version (1.5) is intended for use with Adobe Reader/Acrobat
   Version 10.x, not 9.x 8.x or 7.x

   Normally, selecting a Topic from the 'Search Results' dialog will
   result in scrolling of the appropriate page to place the topic title
   at the  top of the display.  In the event that the first 'hit' is
   not on the  page containing the Topic Title, the full page
   (containing the hit) will  be displayed.

   Users of the Reader can now add comments to PDFs that have 'Reader
   Enabled Usage Rights' (usually done via Adobe Acrobat). However,
   indexing such a PDF will insert an index into the PDF. Such
   changes are not considered to be benign and therefore result
   in the PDF losing it's 'Reader Enabled Usage Rights'.
