Covenant Browser Help 

Overview The image browser included with this program is designed to make it easier for you to work with the graphics on this CD-ROM. You can quickly see all of the graphic files available, choose the file you want to work with, and then export, print, or copy the file to your Windows clipboard to use in a word processor or graphic editing program.

If you prefer not to use the browser to view the clip-art images you can still access the graphics in the appropriately named folders.  For example, to find all the black and white holiday images available you would access the d\Black and White\Book of Mormon\ folder (where d is the letter of you CD-ROM drive). This method of use is intended for users who are familiar with the file management features of Windows. 

Selecting Graphics The selected graphic is outlined in a yellow box. To select a graphic, simply click on it. When you click on a graphic, you will see the attributes of that graphic displayed in the Information Box.

Information Box This box, located at the top left corner of the screen, displays information about the graphic currently selected.
Title--This is the name of the graphic itself.
Image Size--Displays the approximate size of the image in both inches and bytes.

Zoom This button will open a window with a larger preview of the selected graphic.

Export This button takes a copy of the selected image and opens it in a program designed for that specific image type. This feature can be used to bring an image into a graphics editing program for advanced editing.
-SPECIAL NOTE- The browser opens the graphic with its Windows-assigned application. If you prefer using a different program, try copying the image using the "Copy to Clipboard" feature and then pasting it into the application of your choice.
Once an image is exported and in another application, this feature is unsupported by Covenant. Because every word processing and graphics program is different, you will need to refer to your application's instructions for help on working with graphics.

Print You can print any selected graphic by clicking this button.  This will print the selected graphic in the center of the printed page.

Copy to Clipboard This feature will copy the currently selected graphic to the Windows clipboard. You can then paste it into another application (such as Microsoft Word or WordPerfect). When copying the image to the clipboard, the image is decreased to 72 dpi so it may appear larger than the original when it is pasted into an application. 
-SPECIAL NOTE-  Once an image is copied into the clipboard, it is unsupported by Covenant. Because every word processing and graphics program is different, you will need to refer to your application's instructions for help on working with graphics.

Switch to B & W / Color Switches the preview to black and white or color. (Note Not all the images are available in both color and black and white.)

Exit Exits the program.

Image Category Box This box displays the different categories of images available on the CD-ROM. The current category displayed is highlighted in red. To change to another category, click on the category of your choice in this window.

Previous and Next Buttons These buttons will preview the next or previous sixteen graphics.

KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS

Arrow keys These change the selected graphic in whatever direction the user chooses.

Page Up Shows the previous 16 graphics (If available)

Page Down Shows the next 16 graphics (if available)

If you press the letter "p" on your keyboard, the browser will print all the thumbnails in the current category (the on-screen category) for quick reference.  The printed pages include category title, graphics and graphics titles.
In addition to this, if you press the letter "a" on your keyboard, all thumbnails for all categories in both B+W and Color  will print out in the same quick reference format.

--PLEASE NOTE-- If you have an slower computer, it is recommended that you do not use the "a" printing command as explained above. Instead, view the category of your choice in the browser and hit the "p" key on your keyboard.
