=======================
Using TWAIN Data Source
=======================

Photo Image can work with TWAIN Data Sources to scan/acquire images.
There are two commands involved from Photo Image' File menu:
Acquire and Select Source. If you have more than one Data Source
available, choose "Select Source" to select a specific Data Source.
Choose "Acquire" to access the device driver.

The TWAIN Data Source manager (TWAIN.DLL) is automatically installed
into your hard disk during Photo Image installation.
If there is a TWAIN.DLL file already installed in your Windows
directory, Photo Image Installer will replace it if the existing
version is older. The TWAIN.DLL file used in Photo Image is Version
1.5. Before using a TWAIN Data Source, you must first install it.
Please refer to your image input device (e.g. scanner or frame
grabber board) User's Guide to install it properly.


=======================================
Note on 16-color VGA display adapters
=======================================

For better display of gray scale images in a 16-color Windows
display environment, iPhoto+ will check your display adapter for
VGA hardware compatibility to ensure it displays 16 shades of gray
for gray scale images. If you encounter any problems during the
loading of Photo Image Pro or using the screen capture for gray scale
images in this environment, please add the following statements to
the IPPLUS.INI file:

        [Internal]
        VGABIOS=0       ; to disable VGA compatibility checking


===================================
Note on running with EMM386 driver
===================================

If you run Photo Image Pro in Windows 3.0 real mode and install Expanded
memory with the EMM386 driver in the CONFIG.SYS file, we suggest
you open Windows using WIN /n/r. This should eliminate potential
problems caused by insufficient memory.
We strongly recommend you avoid using this application in Windows
3.0 real mode.

=======================================
Contents of the installed directory
=======================================

After installation, your Photo Image directory should contain:

        Setup.exe       ;Photo Image driver setup program
        Install.inf     ;Installation information file
        Photon.exe      ;Photo Image application program
        iPPlus.ini      ;This file is for Photo Image initialization
        Photon.hlp      ;Photo Image help file
        Readme.txt      ;The file you are reading now
        iPPtw.exe       ;
        capture.exe     ;Screen  Capture
        PiPfind.dll     ;Dynamic Link Library
        PiPhelp.dll     ;Dynamic Link Library
        Keyhook.dll     ;Dynamic Link Library

        [images]        ;subdirectory

                 
                   pg.jpg       ;Sample image file
                 
        [install]       ;subdirectory

                iPPlogo.ubm     ;
                iPhoto.ubm      ;
  
        [palettes]      ;subdirectory

                Blue.pal        ;Palette sample
                Green.pal       ;Palette sample
                Magenta.pal     ;Palette sample
                Brown.pal       ;Palette sample
                Gold.pal        ;Palette sample
                Yellow.pal      ;Palette sample


============================
Note on installer temp file
============================

If you interrupt the installation process, a file named: ~ulins.exe
will be created in your C:\ directory.  This file can be deleted
without any side effects.
This file is created during installation. Because you cannot delete
a program that is being executed. Therefore instead of moving the
install.exe onto your system disk and leaving it around, we left a
small ~ulins.exe file which would be deleted when you run iPhoto
Plus.
