KODAK PICTURE DISK VERSION 1.2
------------------------------
For more information about Kodak products and services,
see our web site at http:\\www.kodak.com
RECOMMENDED SYSTEM
IBM PC-compatible 486/25 computer
MICROSOFT WINDOWS 3.1 or higher
8 MB of RAM
Minimum 256-color monitor
To install KODAK Picture Disk Software:
1. Insert the floppy disk into drive A or B.
2. If running WINDOWS 3.1: From Program Manager, choose
File > Run. If running WINDOWS 95: Click Start and
choose Run.
3. Type A:\INSTALL.EXE (or B:\INSTALL.EXE) and click OK.
4. Follow the instructions on the screen.
To start Picture Disk, double-click the Picture Disk icon
in the KODAK program group.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
General
-------
KODAK Picture Disk Software requires a minimum of 256
colors to display your pictures. For the best results, set your
display for more than 256 colors. (The way you set this
depends on your hardware configuration; for instructions, refer
to your WINDOWS system documentation or to the manual
that came with your video display driver.)
Reinstalling Picture Disk Software overwrites the existing
version of the software without warning but preserves your
existing Images Folder (called the "drawer" in previous versions)
and albums. When you run Picture Disk Software V1.2 for the
first time, any pictures in the Images Folder on the hard disk
are converted to a new space-saving format. The amount of time
the conversion takes depends on the number of pictures you have
in the Images Folder.
If you are running WINDOWS 3.1 and you remove the
floppy disk while it is being read, a distorted thumbnail
may be created. Reread the Picture Disk floppy disk
before saving this thumbnail to the Images Folder; if you do
not, the distorted thumbnail will be saved.
If you are running WINDOWS 95 and you remove the diskette
while it is being read, the application window may not be
redrawn correctly after the error message appears. To
correct the display, simply minimize and then restore the
application window.
If you press the spacebar while in the Slideshow window,
the slide show closes.
On a 4 MB system, extended use of Picture Disk Software
may lead to unpredicatable results. To recover, you
must restart WINDOWS and Picture Disk Software.
Performance
-----------
Using very large JPG files may result in slower performance
during Import, Edit, Print Preview, Print Picture, and
Slideshow displays.
The performance of the application degrades when you open
and close the Edit window if the number of pictures
in the Images Folder becomes very large.
Video Display
-------------
When your video driver is configured for 256 colors,
grayscale pictures do not always display correctly.
When the video driver is configured for 256 colors,
pictures that are copied to and pasted from the Clipboard
may not display all of the colors that were displayed in
the original picture.
When the video driver is configured for 256 colors, a
picture that is copied to the Clipboard and then pasted
into ADOBE PHOTOSHOP will have a resolution of only
3.811 pixels. To correct this, choose File > New and
change the resolution to 150 in the dialog box before pasting
the picture in the new window.
When the video driver is configured for 256 colors,
some pictures may not display correctly in the Print
Preview window.
When the video driver is configured for Large Fonts,
the Edit window and the Print Preview window do not
fit completely in the default window size. You must
maximize the window to see the entire window.
When running WINDOWS 95 with your video display
configured for 640 x 480, you will not be able to see the
Picture Disk Software status line. If you maximize and then
restore your window, the status line will become visible.
When you are using a 9FX Motion 771 video card and you
attempt to zoom in on a print preview of a 5 x 7 picture,
Picture Disk Software may halt. If you do not zoom in,
Print Preview will work correctly.
Printing
--------
When running WINDOWS 95 and using an HP DeskJet printer,
using the TAB key in Options from the Print Setup dialog box
may cause the software to halt. Options work correctly
when you select them with the mouse.
When you print to the HP DeskJet 660C printer, selecting
Print Thumbnails may result in some titles printing
incorrectly.
To improve performance and conserve disk space when
printing, turn off the WINDOWS Print Manager through
the Printers icon in the WINDOWS Control Panel.
Some 8 x 10 pictures may be cropped without warning,
depending on the printer you are using.
Horizontal and vertical centering may not work correctly,
depending on the printer you use and the paper orientation.
Trying to cancel Print Thumbnails while the printer is
preparing to print the thumbnails causes the system to
appear to be frozen for as much as a minute or more,
depending on the number of thumbnails being prepared. The
frozen appearance is most likely to occur during printing of
thumbnails from the Picture Disk floppy disk or a Photo CD
disc, but it can also occur during printing of thumbnails from
the Images Folder.
If you run out of disk space while attempting to print,
your printout will not appear, but you will not get any
error message.
When you print to the CANON BJC-600 printer, the Copies
option in the Print dialog box is not available.
On a 4 MB system, Picture Disk Software may halt if you
attempt to print thumbnails to an Epson Stylus Color
ESC/P2 printer with an Epson printer driver earlier than
Version 2.10. To correct the problem, use Version 2.10
or later of the Epson printer driver.
