- ABOUT THE VIEWER CD
- ===================
-
- This CD contains:
-
- * The CorelXARA graphic file viewer for viewing CorelXARA files and a very
- wide range of other files types including Corel CDR files and bitmap
- files. A selection of clipart is included on this CD and can be easily
- loaded (see below). This program can also be used to view libraries of
- picture files and preview, install and de-install TrueType fonts.
-
- * A multi-media demonstration of the full CorelXARA graphics program.
- Sit back and let us show you what CorelXARA can do (loading instructions
- below). Please note that the demonstration refers to the program under its
- previous name of 'Xara Studio'.
-
- * On-line details and information about the CorelXARA program.
-
- Minimum hardware requirements
- =============================
-
- The CorelXARA Viewer requires a 486 or better, and at least 8MB of RAM.
- We would recommend a large amount of virtual memory (20MB or better).
- It runs on Windows 3.1, Workgroups 3.11, Windows NT 3.5 and 3.51 and
- Windows 95. It does not run on Windows 3.0.
-
- Getting started:
- ----------------
- Windows 3.1: In Program manager, Choose Run... from the File menu. Type x:\setup
- into the Command line field (where 'x' should be replaced by the drive letter of
- your CD ROM drive), and press OK.
-
- Windows 95: Click on the Start button on the taskbar, select Run... and type
- x:\setup into the Open field (where 'x' should be replaced by the drive letter of
- your CD ROM drive). Click OK.
-
- For more information on installation see INSTALL.TXT. If you are running Windows 3.x
- you may need to install Win32s (the Microsoft extensions that allow 32 bit programs
- to run on 16 bit Windows). SETUP will tell you if Win32s is not already installed.
- To install Win32s run SETUP.EXE in the Win32s directory on this CD (follow the above
- instructions but type x:\WIN32S\SETUP (replacing 'x' with your CD ROM drive letter)).
-
- Warning: Wait until the installer says 'Installation complete' before running
- the viewer.
-
- This viewer will run on, and take advantage of, Windows 95 and Windows NT.
-
- Occasionally when trying to install, the installer will say that the script
- file is corrupted. Simply run SETUP.EXE again and it should proceed normally.
- If the problem persists, try restarting Windows, then installing.
-
- Loading clipart - either use the Clipart gallery in Viewer (click the
- Clipart gallery icon) or load the files directly from a File Manager
- window. The clipart on this CD is in the Clipart directory.
-
- To run the multimedia demonstration of CorelXARA -
- 1. Double-click the 'CorelXARA Demo' icon in program manager
- (or Choose the item 'CorelXARA Demo' from the Programs section
- of the Start menu if using Windows 95).
- 2. When the Help file appears, click the button under the CorelXARA logo to
- run the demo.
-
- Problems running the ScreenCam demonstration
- ============================================
-
- If you are having problems with the ScreenCam demonstration not running, or
- stopping halfway through, try increasing the amount of virtual memory in
- Windows, and make sure you use a permanent swap file. Sometimes it will tell
- you that the demonstration has not been found - this usually means you're
- running low on memory or virtual memory. Or you might have removed the CD.
-
- CDR loading problems
- ====================
-
- Because this viewer was created from an early pre-release version of CorelXARA,
- the CDR loading is still incomplete, and some Corel Draw objects may not be
- imported properly (such as text along a curve, for example).
