  Incorrect inserts in collections

Collections affected: z/OS Software Products Collection, SK3T-4270-06
z/OS Licensed Product Library, LK3T-4307-03

Due to a printing error, the insides of the front inserts for these collections are incorrect, and list the contents of another collection.

The insert for the z/OS Software Products Collection lists the contents of the z/OS Licensed Product Library. Instead, it should state the contents of the collection as follows:

Disc 1
  • Software Products (A-Da) - BookManager files
Disc 2
  • Software Products (DB-M) - BookManager files
Disc 3
  • Software Products (N-P) - BookManager files
Disc 4
  • Software Products (Q-Z) - BookManager files
Disc 5
  • Software Products (A-I) - PDF files
Disc 6
  • Software Products (J-Z) - PDF files

The insert for the z/OS Licensed Product Library lists the contents of the z/OS Software Products Collection. Instead, it should state the contents of the CD-ROM as follows:

Licensed libraries for z/OS:
  • DFSMS
  • IBM Communications Server

The inserts will be corrected the next time the collections are updated.

  Problems opening PDF files

Collections affected: All collections

You might experience difficulties viewing PDF files depending on the level of your Adobe Acrobat Reader and your Windows platform. In some cases the file does not display, while in others you get a message that the file is being repaired and then it displays. If you have problems, try using a different level of the Adobe Acrobat Reader. You can install an Adobe Acrobat Reader from the collection, or you can download one from the Adobe Web site.

If you are having trouble viewing a PDF file on a CD or the Internet, try downloading the file and viewing it from your hard drive.

 Cross-book linking for older books

Collections affected: All collections

Cross-book links might not work from old, unchanged books to more recent books. Many bookshelves contain a mix of recent softcopy books and some older softcopy books. Most old softcopy books containing cross-book links are not updated to point to more recent editions of the books they link to. As a result, the links work only for the specific back-level editions that the links point to. When you open one of these old softcopy books from a bookshelf that does not contain the back-level editions the links point to, the links to these back-level books fail.
