Software manual of games (minis and ps1 classic) using a kind of the PS3 PDF/PNG viewer or by the PSP (with export).
 
Only X3 seems missing, X5, X6, X7 might not be used yet.

Size: 60 bytes, string in ASCII: "PS1EmuConfigFile", "disc_no"
By pressing home button during the game, ICON of software manual will appear near the game icon to display within ".png viewer" of the ps3 (as option when it s PS1 classic)


Generated/overwrited at each boot of the game, configure the PS1 emulator for: ?
Can be swap by other DOCUMENT.DAT of others same game category (for MINIS at least so no ID game check).
It s the SFO (the first, not the SFO inside EBOOT.PBP) to summon this icon and name but it s the EBOOT.PBP giving the path(can be changed)to load it (?)


== KEYS.BIN ==
===DOCUMENT.DAT on PS3===


16 bytes.
(goal: have it on PS3 games/ homebrews, not only MINIS/PS1 games)
===Limitations and workaround===


If you have this file, you can put it into the folder CONTENT to make your PS1 classic game working after being exported.
*From PARAM.SFO:


For export on PS3 3.55: XMB option
  for DG game:  The icon of software game can appear on PS3 games (at least the one tested was fine) but
  not loading the manual (MINIS/PS1 classic .dat tested)
(edited SFO category as MN instead ) 


For export on PS3 4.xx+: PKG as bubble first. (note: install on PS3 also, the "fix" pkg can be use the regular install pkg)
  For HG game (and so for homebrew) : the trick with edited SFO don t work here
  (there are fews possibles others easy tricks to test)


For Minis and export, you can use the same tool linked on main page to make it as ISO running on your (CFW) PSP.
*From EBOOT:
To identify from .PBP to incorporate it on .BIN (if possible).
Not every eboot.PBP /.SFO has this XMB option (software manual after pressing triangle) on PSP ( used for minis, ps1 classic and EG games) or from .SPRX


== DOCUMENT.DAT ==
*Others:
   
   
Software manual of games (minis, PSP remaster and ps1 classic).
Difference between DOCUMENT.DAT from MINIS and PS1 classic.
 
By pressing PS button during the game, ICON of software manual will appear near the game icon to of the PS3 (as option when it s PS1 classic).


Can be replaced by other DOCUMENT.DAT of others same game category (Minis and PSP remaster can be interchanged).
MINIS game and DOCUMENT.DAT from them are the most flexible for tests.


By editing PARAM.SFO: on Disc Game:  The icon of software manual can appear on PS3 games but not loading the manual. (edited SFO category as MN instead of DG, the utility icon don t appear with HG)
For the same purpose of having easy custom text or pictures, getting pictures (or PARAM.HIP) XMB in games (available when it s XMB in music) can be also nice.


3 different version supported? ( ps1 classic-MINIS-old format used on homebrew)
===DOCUMENT.DAT on PSP===


Can be loaded from PSP XMB (if it is from MINIS, not from PS1 classic) without having to boot the game or even a working game.
3 differents type supported? ( ps1 classic-MINIS-old format used on homebrew)
Can be loaded from psp XMB (if it is from MINIS, not from PS1 classic) without having to boot the game or even a working game.


Create your homebrew manual or walktrough by using PSP DocMaker GUI:
It's possible to create your own DOCUMENT.DAT such as homebrew manual or walktrough by using PSP DocMaker GUI but not yet used in PS3 homebrew (limited to EBOOT.PBP type?)?

===DOCUMENT.DAT on PSVITA===
On PSVITA, it seems the document.dat is not used anymore (?) and instead, directly as .png format (also when transfer MINIS games ps3 to psvita?)
[http://www.vitadevwiki.com/index.php?title=Packages_(.PKG)]


On PS3, digital comic can also be repacked and run as {{icon content pspremaster}} or {{icon content pspminis}}.
=== PLAYVIEW ===


Customization might be extremely limited by size of image (around 2MB?)  per page/sum loaded although there are may be some possible setting (if not due to internal use) on emulation for PS3 and one SFO parameter on PSP. XML structure link seems also limited to only two xmlurl / action per page (left/right as backward/forward) .
Other/new way for manual game on PS3/PSP/PSVITA


It is simple to manipulate and make your own .PNG (no need to be specific) slow slide show pack as PKG for your game column.

Pages can be added by simply expand the structure inside USRDIR/packages/comic name/.

*AppTemplate.xml: Contains application name of the app, font (size, type, style ...), buttonMap (L2/R2 included and related status), ...
PS1 game fixed with "NPDRM tool" don t have this file, <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">so it s not clear for me if this file is generated on PS3 side (and the tools can be missing this part and same for MINIS or it s not suppose to be create from free content?</span> : the only reason will because of export but most unlikely) or by the PSP side (and in this case, it s not generated because of the game is considered as free???).
So...it s a bit trivial question since there are a lot of solutions for playing PS1 games on PSP but still.


*config.txt: home page URL, umd and ms root directory, ...
If you have the appropriate file, you can put it into the folder CONTENT to make the game working also in PSP (required at least LCFW)


*NTemplateMain.xml:
On PSP scene: for the purpose of making ps1 cd format to eboot.pbp and using the PS1 emulator, it seems the need of this file was patched to an unique game (attached to "PSP.base").
