USING KODAK PHOTO CD SCANS:
There are four levels of resolution in the pcd scan. When acquiring the image choose the resolution that meets the specification for your project. Applications such as Photoshop, Quark Express and other desktop publishing tools all accept pcd. QuickTime TM v. 2.1 or later must be installed in the extensions folder in the system folder on the Macintosh.
Special software or plug-ins might be required to open .pcd files.

USING THE WEB LINK:
To be able to connect to the web link your computer has to be setup with the necessary hard and software. A modem and access to an
ISP (Internet Service Provider) are required to use this feature.
Contact a local ISP in your area to get more information.
WINDOWS NOTES:
If the program suffers from General Protection Faults or it exhibits strange-looking screen images, then the most logical culprit is the display driver for your video card. Try these steps to rule out other possibilities:
First, set the display to 640x480 pixels with 256 colors, and try again.
If the problems persist, then take steps to prevent memory managers in DOS and Windows from using the video card's memory area. (Consult the manual that came with your video card to determine this area).
Contact your video and sound card manufacturer for the latest drivers (usually available for free from the manufacturers web site). Outdated driver software can cause conflicts and malfunctions.
