Update Help About to the description in 04.15 GUI_Help_AboutHRE 2018-05-31.pdf

Hi

I find it rather counterproductive that you have a long text in this document, but has made it non-machinereadable, so I have to type it in again from a picture.

I would suggest that as a matter of principle we should never be uploading text in image format.

Hi Michael,

One issue that I had note thought about. I hope that this request below will avoid it in the future.

Don, Rod > For the future, please make sure any special text that is in an image in the GUI documents is also included as a normal text string with the the appropriate document.

You have a point! I’ll add the text to the raw documentation too.

The text you’re after (I presume) is the stuff in the splash screen, which looks like:

Have finished the About dialog by hand in the meantime. Just wanted to improve the process for the future.
