SATORI INSTALLATION

BEFORE YOU INSTALL:
Please be sure that:
1. Your operating system is Windows 95, Windows ‘98 or Windows NT 4.0. 
(Satori will not run in Windows 3.x, and versions of NT less than 4.0 are not recommended)
2. There are no other open applications during installation.
3.  Please be certain that you have enough space available on your hard drive before you install.  

You will need approx 6 Mbytes to install the software 

INSTALLATION TIPS:
1.  Read all documentation and Readme files before you install.
2.  If your installation is unsuccessful:
	a).  Make a note of any error messages.
	b).  Make sure that nothing is running in the background.
	c).  Try a system restart and run through the "Before You Install" checklist.
	d).  If the installer or application fails, please contact Technical Support. 

	Wherever possible please document the fault using the problem form supplied on disk and email this to support@satoripaint.com

TO INSTALL:
1. If Setup has not been run automatically (by inserting the CD or by running the self extracting install program) then you will need to locate the Setup.exe and double-click it to launch the Satori installer. 

2. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the software on your hard drive.

All the files you need to run Satori will now be installed. 

3. Installation of any third party drivers for tablets or any other relevant devices will need to be completed at the end of the installation.  

4. The first time you run Satori PhotoXL you will be asked to enter a CD-Key. The CD-KEY required to fully enable the software is  A3011-X764229

TO SET UP YOUR SYSTEM:
Satori will use your system swap (virtual) file. The size of the swap file required depends on how much system memory (RAM) you have installed, the size of your image(s), number of layers and objects. In most cases, you do not need to make any changes as by default the operating system will adjust these settings automatically

If you would like to check your current settings or intend to work very large images (100Mbytes or greater) then you may prefer to set your system swap file (virtual memory) to 200Mbytes or greater. To set this: 
1. Press the Start button on your task bar.
2. From the settings menu select Control Panel.
3. Double click on the system icon and select the performance tab. 
4. Change the virtual memory settings. Set the maximum value to be 200Mbytes or greater. Set the minimum value to be the same value.  For more information, consult your operating system help.

TO RUN SATORI:
1.  Press the Start button on your task bar.
2   From the Programs menu select the Satori folder.
3.  Double click on the Satori icon to launch the Satori application.

POINTING DEVICES (TABLET / MOUSE) 

Satori has some powerful drawing features and these work best with a pressure sensitive pointing device, such as a pen and tablet, instead of a mouse. If you don't have a pressure sensitive pointing device then pressure can be selected using the ten keyboard number keys where 1 selects 10% pressure, 2 selects 20% pressure, and so on up to 9 which selects 90% pressure and 0 which selects 100% pressure.

To get optimum drawing results using this software, we would recommend that a WinTab compatible graphics tablet is connected to your system. If you are already using a WinTab tablet then you do not need to install the drivers provided.

If you are installing a Wacom tablet for the first time then you should complete the following instructions or consult the documentation provided with your Wacom tablet.

WARNING:	The Wacom tablet must be attached to the system and powered up in order for the drivers to correctly identify the tablet type.

TO INSTALL THE WACOM TABLET DRIVER:
1. Download the Wacom tablet driver (www.wacom.com or www.satoripaint.com) 
2. Locate the icon named Setup and double-click it.
3. Double click on the Wacom Setup icon (under the Wacom sub-directory).
4. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the software on your hard drive.

When all the drivers are installed you will need to re-start (or re-boot) the system. On restarting the system you will need to set the Wacom driver to its optimum settings for operation with Satori.

TO SET-UP THE WACOM TABLET:
1. Press the Start button on your task bar.
2. Select Control Panel from the settings menu.
3. Double click on the Wacom Tablet  icon to start the Wacom setup application. Select tip pressure. Check normal pressure and set minimum pen to 5%.

WARNING:	Failing to reduce the pen pressure threshold will result in a reduced range of pressure responses when freehand drawing

The pen pressure response can also be changed using the response tab in the Satori brush set-up. The changes you make here will only apply to Satori, and not any other applications that are running. See Readme.wri for more information.  If you pen has a barrel switch, use the Wacom controls to set it to "right click".

Once all the software is installed you are now able to use Satori. Spaceward recommend that you read all the documents which will have been installed with the programs to help you set up your system.
