README
HVS ColorGIF(tm) 2.0/Windows
Version 2.007 Demo
2/27/98
The manual for HVS ColorGIF 2.0 is provided as a set of HTML files. You can view the manual with any
Web browser. The file "contents.html" is the top-level document.
INSTALLATION
------------
This version is being distributed as a Zip archive. Use WinZip or PKUNZIP to expand the files. After
expansion, you will have the following files:
HVSCGU.8BF -- the Filter version of the plug-in.
HVSCGU.8BE -- the Filter version of the plug-in.
README -- this file.
HVSColorGIF Docs -- HTML manual for the product.
For maximum functionality, the full HVS ColorGIF 2.0 package includes two versions of the plug-in: a
Filter and a File Export module. You'll find more about this in the manual. One of the things the filter
does well is run on other applications besides Photoshop. VERY FEW paint programs support the Export
plug-in standard. So if you don't have Photoshop, you'll probably only be able to use the filter.
This demo contains both the filter and export plugins which will remain functional for 30 days.
1. Locate your paint program's plug-ins folder. Photoshop has a folder called Plug-Ins inside the main
Photoshop folder. Under the plug-ins folder is another folder for Filters.
2. Copy the HVSCGU.8BF plug-in to the Filters folder.
2. Copy the HVSCGU.8BE plug-in to the Exports folder.
4. Restart your paint application. With an RGB image loaded, the filter should show up under Filters/HVS
Filters.
You can put the docs anywhere on your hard disk that's convenient. As a convenience, you might put an
alias to the contents.html file somewhere on your desktop.
HVS ANIMATOR
------------
Purchasers of HVS ColorGIF 2.0 will automatically be entitled to download the latest version of Digital
Frontiers' Java-based GIF animation tool, HVS Animator.
