Apple Newton Connection Utilities (for Macintosh) - Manual (Page 101)

101
The Read Me file that comes with your Newton Connection Utilities includes
a list of translators that come with the utilities. You can use these translators
to import, export, or synchronize information between your Newton device
and applications on your computer.
Here are some tips for working with translators (these tips don’t apply to
Newton Works import and export):
m When you export from the Notepad, one file is created on your computer
even if you have several notes on your Newton device.
m When you export notes that contain full paragraphs of ink, each ink
paragraph is converted to a graphic on your computer.
m When you export notes that contain paragraphs with mixed ink and text,
only the text is exported, unless you export using the RTF format.
m If you export mixed text and graphics (for example, a drawing with text
labels) from your Newton device, the information is converted to an RTF
file with graphics included as PICT files.
m If you import graphics that are wider or taller than the Newton screen, the
upper left corner of the graphic appears on your Newton device.
m Some translators may turn repeating meetings into separate individual
meetings. In this case, you can specify whether only the first instance of
this meeting is transferred or all instances of this meeting. For more
information, see “Setting Miscellaneous Options” in Chapter 10, “Setting
Advanced Options.”
m You cannot synchronize with files created by word-processing applications.
