Glossary
The following are explanations of terms related to the functions of this unit.
A
Anti-Aliasing Process
This process smoothes rough edges on
curved lines (rough edges on characters,
etc.).
Application Software
This is software, i.e. Word, Excel, Adobe
Reader, etc., that operates on an operating
system (basic software, Windows XP or Vista
for this unit) and is used by the PC user to
perform specific operations.
The SV-Manager is also an application
software, however, application software in
this document refers to software that is not
the SV-Manager.
B
Bitmap
This is a format expressed by clusters of dots
in an image. This is also called a raster data
format. This includes JPEG, TIFF, GIF, BMP,
etc. In a more narrow sense, this term refers
to Windows bitmaps with a bmp extension.
On the other hand, the vector data format
expresses curves and straight lines in images
using mathematical formulas. This includes
TrueType fonts, EPS, etc.
Bookmark
The bookmark is a mark placed on pages just
as post-its are placed on paper documents.
Browse Date
This is the last date that the unit-specific file
was browsed on the unit.
BRVDOC Folder

save unit-specific files. The folder is created when
the SV-Manager or the unit is initialized. The
hidden folder attribute is applied to this folder.

intermediate file format, BVD file.

there is no menu, i.e. "File", "Edit", etc., under
the title bar in the dialog.
Drag and Drop
This function refers to the action of selecting
a target on the screen with the left mouse
button, moving the target while holding the
