Overview
--------
In order to use the software on this CD ROM, you need to have a 486 or 
Pentium with at least 8 MB of RAM and 50 MB of hard disk space.  If you 
are installing Adobe Photoshop, you need to have 16 MB of RAM (memory) 
in order to run Photoshop.  The hard disk space requirements depend on 
the size of images you scan.  50 MB is enough if you are scanning small
images.  If you intend to scan larger files or very high resolutions, you
need to have much more space than 50 MB on your hard disk.

ScanWizard - ScanWizard is the scanner controller software driver or the 
Twain driver for your scanner.  It allows your applications to communicate
with your scanner.  When you install this software under Windows 95, you 
get a 16-bit as well as a 32-bit version of ScanWizard.  Use the 16-bit 
version with 16-bit applications and the 32-bit versions with 32-bit 
applications.

ULead PhotoImpact - This is a 32-bit image editing software for Windows 95.  
Use this program to scan images under Windows 95 and save them as bitmaps.

ULead ImagePals to Go! - This is a 16-bit image editing software for Windows
3.1x. If you are using Windows 95, it is a good idea to use PhotoImpact to
scan images instead.  This software will install and run under Windows 95 
should you choose to install it.

OmniPage Limited Edition - This software is 16-bits but works properly under
Windows 95.  OmniPage Limited Edition is used for scanning pages of text and
converting them into a word processor format so you can then edit the text. 

Documentation
-------------
- In order to use the documentation, you must run the Acrobat Reader
program which is on the CD ROM in the ACROREAD directory.  To execute,
run \ACROREAD\ACROREAD.EXE from your CD ROM and follow the screen instructions.
Refer to the printed Installation Guide on how to read the manual for each 
specific software.

Older Microtek Interface Cards and Windows 95
---------------------------------------------

If you plan to use a MS-PCZ or MS-PNR interface card with your scanner under 
Windows 95, please refer to the \ScanWiz\cards.rtf file of the CD ROM for 
installation instructions.  This file can be openned with any word processor 
which can read a Rich Text Format (RTF) file such as Windows 95 Wordpad 
application.  The .INF files for these two types of cards can be found in 
the \ScanWiz\DISK1 subdirectory of the CD ROM.  This document refers to a 
disk called the Drivers disk.  You can use the .INF files whenever the document
refers to the Drivers diskette.
