Copying a Job Into Another Storage Area You may want to copy an entire or part of a job into another storage area. To copy part of a job, you must first copy the entire job and then delete the parts you do not want. This is best explained by an example. The following steps will copy storage area 1 into storage area 2. 1. Type some text in storage area 1. 2. Press Stare + 2. 3. Press Play + 1 plus the Spacebar, • This plays the first character, space, tab, arid so on of the job. 4. Press Ada= + A (All). • You have now copied storage area 1 into storage area 2. • You have not changed anything in storage area 1. 5. Press Store. Helpful Hints If the typewriter does not have enough memory for the entire job to be copied, the typewriter will beep, the Store light will blink, and only pert of the job will be copied. ,• When Using Play, Del, and Advnc To: Make sure you type the word or words exactly as they appea in the stored job. Type no more than 28 characters for the word or words. The typewriter beeps and ignores each additional character you type. • You can Del and Advnc through stop codes sat for a multipage job. • If you add text to a multipage job, the stop code set before revision will no longer indicate the end of your text on that page. • If you turn off your typewriter while storage is open, you must reopen storage and play back or use Advnc + All to move to the end of the job, • If the word you want to advance, delete, or play to la a short or common word. type several words up to 28 characters to define the destination more clearly. For example, if you want to advance to the word "is." it will advance to the first word containing the letters "la." This could be "his," ."this," "island," and so on. • If the word you want to advance, delete or play to contains a deac key, do not type the dead key (accent marks). • If the word you want to advance, delete, or play to contains an overstrike, key only one of the overstrike characters. For examplf If you have 0 0, key only 1300" or "1/I." 11 you are playing text from one storage area to another, the Play, Dar, and Advnc keys work with the storage area where the text is being played from until the end of the storage area is reached. 4-32 Operator's Guide Advanced Storage 4-31
