Show Marks
When the Show Marks setting is on, tabs appear as right arrows and carriage
returns appear as return arrows as shown below.
When you have Show Marks turned off, tabs and carriage returns appear as
spaces on the screen. Regardless of the Show Marks setting, when you send
files to your computer, tabs and carriage returns transfer correctly to your
computer.
File Sizes
In the AlphaWord Plus settings in AlphaSmart Manager, you can set
minimum and maximum file size limits. (The minimum size limit ensures
that a certain amount of space is reserved on the NEO for each file.)
The highest maximum file size allowed is 102,400 characters (about
50 pages); the smallest minimum size allowed is 512 characters (about one
quarter of a page). To keep track of how many characters and pages are in a
file and how much space is left, press ctrl-W while working in the file on the
NEO.
File Passwords Specifies a new default password for all AlphaWord Plus
files. This gives each file the same new password, but you
can assign unique passwords using Control Panel on the
NEO. For more information, see the NEO and NEO 2
User Manual.
