Search
The
Search
tab enables you to search the entire Help system for specific words,
such as "borderless print".
Tip
If any of the words you are entering are fairly common (such as
"print", in the "borderless print" example), you might want to place
quotation marks around the combination of words for which you are
searching. This limits your search so that the results are more relevant to
the information you need. Instead of returning all topics that contain either
the word "borderless" or the word "print", the search will only return topics
that contain the phrase "borderless print".
After entering your search criteria, click
List
Topics
to view all the Help topics that contain
the words or phrases you entered. The results
are listed in a three-column table. Each row
contains the topic
Title
, the
Location
in the Help
where the topic is contained, and the
Rank
,
assigned based on its relevance to your search
criteria.
By default, the results are sorted by
Rank
, so that the topic containing the most
instances of your search criteria is at the top of the list. You can also sort the
results by the topic's
Title
or
Location
, by clicking the table heading for that
column. To view the contents of a topic, double-click that row in the results table.
The selected topic appears in the display area on the right.
Display area
The display area on the right side of the Help window displays the Help topic you
select from one of the tabs on the left. Help topics include descriptive text, step-by-
step instructions, and illustrations, if applicable.

Topics often include links to other topics in the Help system where you can find
additional information. Sometimes a link automatically opens the new topic in the
display area. At other times, there might be more than one applicable topic. When
