-
- Installing FaceLift for Windows 3.0
- ===================================
-
- 1 Install Windows 3.0, if you haven't already done so.
- 2 Start Windows.
- 3 Go to the Program Manager window.
- 4 Choose Run... from the File menu.
- 5 Insert disk 1 from your FaceLift package into a disk drive.
- 6 Type A:INSTALL <Enter> or B:INSTALL <Enter>.
- 7 Follow the prompts on your screen.
- 8 Install the Bitstream typefaces by clicking the Add...
- button and following the screen prompts.
-
- The FaceLift installation program creates a new window in the
- Program Manager, which shows the icon of the FaceLift Control
- Panel. If you want to, you can move the icon elsewhere in
- Windows and delete the empty window.
-
-
- Installing FaceLift for Windows 2.x
- ====================================
-
- The FaceLift installation program modifies Windows device
- drivers so they can print or display FaceLift fonts. It also
- modifies the WIN.INI file. The program installs FaceLift and
- the modified version of Windows 2.x together into a new, empty
- directory on your system.
-
- BEFORE YOU START you should know the type of display adapter
- or display driver you use with Windows.
-
- 1 Start from the DOS prompt. No other program, such as a
- previously installed version of Windows, should be running.
-
- 2 Use the "mkdir" DOS command to create a new directory for
- FaceLift and the FaceLift-modified version of Windows.
-
- 3 Use the "chdir" DOS command change to your new directory.
-
- 4 Insert the FaceLift disk in your disk drive. (Or read
- "Installing FaceLift and Windows from a Network or Hard
- Disk" at the end of this file.)
-
- 5 Start the program by typing A:INSTALL <Enter> or
- B:INSTALL <Enter>.
-
- 6 Follow the instructions on your screen.
-
- 7 When the install program shows a list of Windows-supported
- display drivers, make a note of the number that corresponds
- to your driver.
-
- (If your driver is not on the list, it is not one of the
- common drivers provided by Microsoft. You need to add
- it to the file FLDRIVER.LST, which is in your current
- directory. Edit FLDRIVER.LST with any text editor and
- read the instructions at the beginning of the file. After
- you have made the changes, save FLDRIVER.LST as an
- unformatted ASCII file. Restart the installation program
- (from the new Windows directory) by typing FLMENU <ENTER>.
-
- 8 When the installation program prompts you, type the following
- command: FL X: Y Z <Enter>
-
- where FL is the command name
- X: is the letter of your disk drive
- Y is the number of disks in your Windows 2.x
- package (If your display driver was
- provided by the manufacturer of your
- monitor, Y includes the number of Windows
- disks PLUS the driver disk.)
- Z is the number that corresponds to your
- display driver.
-
- If you make a mistake, press CTRL+BRK and re-try the
- command.
-
- (The installation program copies some files to the current
- directory of the currently selected hard disk. It also
- copies some temporary files to your root directory:
- FACELIFT.ORG, FACELIFT.GRB, FACELIFT.LGO, FACELIFT.3EX,
- and FACELIFT.386. If, by chance, there are files by these
- names in the root directory, they will be deleted!)
-
- 9 When prompted, insert your Windows disks one at a time.
- Be sure to insert the Windows Setup disk last. (If you
- have a separate disk containing your display driver, be
- sure you insert that, too.)
-
- 10 After copying files it needs from the Windows disks, the
- installation program begins the Windows setup procedure.
- Be alert! You will answer some of the setup questions
- differently than you did when you first installed Windows.
- This time you will install a display driver with a name
- like "WIN2 Screen Driver Interface V.1.0" instead of the
- standard name you might expect.
-
- * Enter the name of your current directory as the Windows
- directory.
- * If Setup asks you for your hardware configuration, give
- the normal answers. Very shortly you will alter some
- selections.
- * Choose the option to change the display driver. Select
- the last line of possible drivers, which is labeled
- "Other drivers."
- * If Setup asks you for the drive where the driver is
- to be loaded from, type the drive letter of your hard
- disk. (For example, C:).
- * Look for a display driver with a name such as
- "WIN2 Screen Driver Interface V.1.0" and select it.
- * Answer other prompts in Setup the same way you did the
- first time you installed Windows 2.x.
-
- 11 Insert Windows disks as Setup requests them.
-
- 12 After all the required files have been installed, the
- modified version of Windows will start and you will see
- the FaceLift Typefaces Panel. If Windows does not start,
- you did something wrong during installation. Re-read
- the instructions and try again. If you don't succeed, call
- Bitstream Technical Support.
-
- 13 Begin installing the Bitstream typefaces by inserting the
- FaceLift disk in the drive and selecting the drive.
-
- 14 Select the Add... button and the typefaces to copy to your
- hard disk.
-
- 15 Select Copy.
-
- 16 Select OK to accept the default typeface directory, or
- type a new directory name and select OK.
-
- 17 After all FaceLift, Windows, and your Bitstream typefaces
- have been installed, you have one last thing to do before
- using FaceLift. Remove three of the standard Windows (.FON)
- fonts that you will not need with FaceLift: Roman
- Script
- Modern.
-
- These three fonts can potentially interfere with FaceLift's
- operation. To remove the .FON fonts, use the Windows
- Control Panel (CONTROL.EXE) or, if you are an experienced
- user, edit WIN.INI with the Notepad.
-
-
- Installing FaceLift and Windows 2.x from a Network or Hard Disk
- ===============================================================
-
- To install FaceLift from a directory on your hard disk or
- network* follow these steps:
-
- 1 Copy the contents of all Windows disks to the directory.
-
- 2 Copy the contents of the FaceLift disk(s) to the same
- directory.
-
- 3 If the directory is on your hard disk, use the DOS "subst"
- command to make it a disk drive.
-
- 4 If the directory is on your network, use the DOS "chdir"
- command to make it your current directory.
-
- 5 Follow the installation procedure above (steps 1 through 17).
- As the drive letter, use the letter of your network
- directory, or the letter you used with the "subst" command.
- As the number of Windows Setup disks, use 1.
-
- * The license agreement requires the purchase of one copy
- of FaceLift for each computer.
-
- (For instructions on installing network applications for
- Windows 3.0, refer to the Windows User's Guide.)
