IX. About the Victor Library for 32-bit Windows
--------------------------------------------------------------------
I. Program Overview
DemoVic is a full featured grayscale and color image processing
program based on the Victor Library for 32-bit Windows.
With DemoVic images can be loaded from a variety of file
formats, enhanced with image processing, displayed, and printed.
Images can be transferred to and from the clipboard and combined
in various ways for special effects or analysis.
Because this is a demonstration program the SAVE commands in
DemoVic have been disabled.
If you would like to try the 16-bit Victor for Windows. You may
download it from our website at <http://www.catenary.com/victor>
II. Installing DemoVic
DemoVic is ready to run on this CD.
III. Running DemoVic
To run the program, double click the DemoVic icon or DemoVic.exe.
To load an image select File Open. DemoVic supports BMP, GIF, PCX,
TGA, JPG, and TIFF image formats.
IV. Getting Help
To obtain help on commands or dialog boxes, use the Help facility.
Help may be accessed by clicking the Help menu item or pressing
the F1 key with a menu item highlighted to get context-sensitive help.
V. Display Modes
We recommend that Windows be run in a 256-color mode to obtain the
best graphics possible. Although we think DemoVic does a good job
of representing colors in a 16-color mode, images will appear
sharper and colors more realistic in a 256-color mode. The Windows
display mode is set by running the Windows SETUP program from
within Windows or from the DOS prompt.

IX. About the Victor Image Processing Library
The program on this disk is a fully functional grayscale
and color image processing program based on the Victor Image
Processing Library for 32-bit Windows.
This program does not include every function in the Victor Library,
but enough to give you an idea of what is possible for you to achieve
with your own application.
The Victor Library is a complete image handling library that you can
use to create powerful applications . . . other libraries may allow
you to load and display images, but only the Victor Library gives
your application the additional power to print images, control the
scanner, and to perform image processing and color reduction
to enhance your images for the best possible display.
