The conversion log is a file that the program creates

to

record information about llie

conversion process.

It

is conceivable that some features in

a

document cannot

be

converted because they are not supported by the destination word processor.

The program can record such exceptions in a log file containing an audit trail. The

audit trail log file is a simple ASCII text file, which may be reviewed or printed after

doing a conversion.

If the log file does not exist when you run the program, it automatically creates it and

writes the log into it. If the file already exists, the program appends the new

information to the end of the file, leaving the previous information in it intact.

Therefore, the log file can accumulate the audit trail over successive conversion

sessions.

The log file created will always be named “CONVERT.LOG”, and will be saved in the

Brother subdirectory.

The log file can be viewed on the screen using the

DOS

type command. For example:

C>TYPE C;\BROTHER\CONVERT.LOG

This will display the audit trail on the screen.

Note that for each conversion session, the audit trail records the date and time the
conversion was performed, the source and destination word processing formats, and

the exception summary results tor each tile converted.
You

have the option to allow the program to create the log or not to create it. You may

select On or Off for the Conversion Log feature from the sub-menu.
