Using this guide
This user guide assumes that you have a basic knowledge of Mac
OS X. You should understand pointing, clicking, double-clicking,
dragging and dropping, and how to select items in the menus. You
should also be familiar with operating dialog boxes and sheets
(which are similar to dialog boxes, but drop down out of the
window), resizing windows, and using the clipboard to copy and
paste. If you aren’t familiar with these or other basic Macintosh
operations or terminology, please refer to the documentation that
came with your computer.
Newcomers to MacJournal will find the first several chapters of this
guide a useful introduction to the basics of using the program. The
rest of this guide will serve as a reference on MacJournal’s many
features. The links to various sections and chapters should be
clickable throughout the document in most PDF viewing programs.
