Installing the Software

The PhotoDeluxe installation procedure is different for Macintosh and PC computers. Therefore, we have provided two separate sets of instructions. Follow the set of instructions for your computer.

Installing Adobe PhotoDeluxe on the PC

NOTE: PhotoDeluxe is compatible with Windows 98, 95 and higher. Use the following steps to install your scanning software rather than using the add/remove programs to install the software.

1.Insert the CD-ROM labeled “PhotoDeluxe” into your computer’s CD-ROM drive. Your computer should automatically read the disk and display a series of screens regarding product licensing. Follow the onscreen instructions.

NOTE: If a window does not appear automatically, double-click the My Computer icon to open it, double-click the PhotoDeluxe CD-ROM icon to open it.

2.A Licensing Agreement window appears. Enter the country where you are currently located in and click Next.

NOTE: To access these files you must click the “Start” bar, select “Programs”, and then select “Adobe”. A cascading file appears with “ReadMe” information and other selections to choose from. For information about setting up desktop shortcuts, refer to your Microsoft Windows documentation.

Install VistaScan and Bundle Software (Presto! PageManager, Presto! PageType, OmniPage LE, and Online Manuals)
