- About the Demo
- If you have not purchased a serial number for Portfolio, you can run it as a
- full-functioning demo for 30 days. After this period expires, Portfolio will
- convert into a Browser version. This version only allows read-only operations,
- so you will not be able to create catalogs or add items to catalogs.
- Additionally, the Browser only operates in a single-user setting, so you will be
- locked out of any networked catalog that another user is accessing. If you do
- access a networked catalog, all other users will be locked out of that catalog
- until you close the catalog.
-
-
- Using the UnInstall utility (Windows only):
- In order to remove Portfolio you will need to run the Add/Remove Programs option
- from the Control Panel.

- Software Technical Notes:
-
- * QuickTime 4.0 is used on both Mac and Windows to translate a number of raster
- image and multimedia formats. As a result, we strongly recommend you install
- QuickTime 4.0. The installers for both platforms are available on the Extensis
- CD.
- * Also available on the Extensis CD are additional MacOS extensions that improve
- the functionality of Portfolio.
- - The Appearance Manager 1.02 installer provides support for contextual menus
- and extended keyboard shortcuts in Portfolio. To use it, simply run the
- installer. It will work with MacOS 7.1 and above. These extensions are already
- available in MacOS 8.1 and above. Note that Portfolio does not support Contextual
- Menus with versions of the Appearance Manager prior to 1.02.
- - Navigation Services provides advanced navigational features for the Open and
- Save dialogs in Portfolio. This is a shared library which can be installed by
- dropping it onto your System folder. It will work with MacOS 7.5.5 and above.
- * Portfolio 4.1 for the Macintosh running with the Appearance Manager enabled
- will conflict with Kaleidoscope 2.0. The only workaround at the present time is
- to disable Kaleidoscope.
- * On the Mac, Portfolio uses Internet Config to determine how to handle various
- URL types that are entered into URL fields. Internet Config is installed as part
- of QuickTime 4.0. If Internet Config is not installed or is configured
- incorrectly, URL links in Portfolio may not work or may produce unexpected
- results.
