ALLVUE PRO V1.01 - README.TXT

INSTALLATION NOTE - OUTDATED SYSTEM FILES

If you have a previous version of ALLVUE, bring up the Control Panel, double click on Add/Remove programs, and remove ALLVUE from your system.  The de-installation procedure is automatic and quick.  If you do not remove ALLVUE, there may be conflicts with older DLLs.  Depending upon how often or rarely you install other applications that update your system files, you may receive a warning that some of your system files are out of date.  Should this occur, the installation procedure is notifying you that ALLVUE PRO cannot run with the older system (DLL) files.  To proceed, the installation process must update those files and then reboot.  After the reboot, restart the installation procedure.  With the updated files in place, the installation of ALLVUE PRO should proceed very quickly and easily taking less than two minutes.

Windows NT Users:  Service Pack 2 should be installed on your system to run all current software from Microsoft and others.

1. ALLVUE PRO is a multiple image file manager created to easily and quickly sort, cull, search, and locate multiple image files for Web-pages, photos, graphic designs, clip art, and other image types.  It is 32-bit software application that runs on Windows 95 and Windows NT V4.0.

ALLVUE PRO displays fifteen image files at once.  You can scroll forward or backwards through hundreds or thousands of image files.  ALLVUE PRO will copy, move, rename, delete, and print image files.  You can choose to work on screen or print pages of single or all fifteen images at a time (in color if you have a color printer) to work off-line.  For each image, you can choose to display file name, image size, number of colors, last date modified or the size of the file in bytes.  And by clicking on an image, ALLVUE PRO will zoom in under your control to examine and magnify any section you wish to examine up to 5,000%.  You can also print or copy to the clipboard the entire image or just a cropped and magnified section.

2.  If you have downloaded the "Full Distribution" version, all you need do is run "setup.exe".  It will take care of the rest and let you select or create a directory for ALLVUE PRO.  The installation procedure also uses Windows 95 and Windows NT V4.0 "Add/Remove Program" feature to support removal if you decide to remove it from your computer for any reason.  Just select "START/SETTINGS/CONTROL PANEL", and click on the "Add/Remove Programs" option.  A dialog box will appear with a list of programs you can remove.  Just select ALLVUE and follow the instructions.

Our Web-page will indicate when an available minimum distribution will work and on which prior versions it will work.  If no "Minimum Distribution" is available, you must download the "Full Distribution" to assure that other necessary system files are on your system and are up-to-date.

3.  ALLVUE PRO is free for a 30 day evaluation.  You then have the option of registering it for permanent use or deleting it from your system.  In addition to the registration process making your use of ALLVUE PRO legal, it will also remove the "Evaluation Mode" bar and license reminder.

4.  The program may be freely distributed in "Evaluation Mode" as long as it is done so in its entirety with all copyrights, license information, this readme file, etc.  In other words, the entire ZIP file you downloaded from our site or one of our distributors.

7.  Version changes:

    Version 1.00 is a new release which upgrades the functionality of ALLVUE to the professional version and adds the ability to move image files individually and in bulk.  There are several ZOOM functions that allow the user to magnify and crop the image and print it magnified and cropped.  It also adds the ability to copy the image to the clipboard (whole or magnified and cropped), save any displayed image file to a BMP file regardless of its source type, scan file tpyes, plus other additional enhancements.

    Version 1.01 is a minor bug-fix.  It fixes a problem with the "Scan File Types" routine and moved or deleted files.
