Using the ISPF/PDF Editor

You need to use the ISPF/PDF editor to perform some administrative tasks, such as adding and modifying news items and course abstracts. The system invokes ISPF/PDF and begins the edit session for you. You simply type in the information on the panel that is displayed.

The ISPF/PDF editor has simple commands for inserting, deleting, copying, moving, and splitting lines. If you are unfamiliar with these commands, you might want to read the section of the online ISPF/PDF tutorial that describes them.

To see the editing information in the ISPF/PDF tutorial, either:

Press the HELP PF key twice while a panel that allows you to type text is displayed.
Select the PDF option on the main menu panel for administrators (Figure 1). The PDF option invokes ISPF/PDF and displays the first ISPF/PDF panel. Select the TUTORIAL option on that panel. A few pages into the tutorial you see a table of contents and can select the EDIT option.
