Installing the plug-in module for use by other applications

The Apple Color OneScanner plug-in module allows you to scan images directly into applications compatible with Adobe Photoshop plug-ins. The user’s manual for your application will tell you where the application requires you to place the plug-in module.

Before you install the plug-in modules, you must install the Apple Color

OneScanner software, as described earlier in this chapter.

To install the plug-in module for use by another application:

1Open the Apple Color OneScanner folder (the one you just installed on your hard disk).

Plug-ins folder

2Open the Plug-ins folder, select the plug-in icon, and choose Duplicate or Make Alias from the File menu (Finder).

A copy or an alias of the plug-in module is created. (An alias takes up no space on your disk, a big advantage. For information about using aliases, see your Macintosh user’s manual or Apple Guide, Apple’s online help.)

3Move the copy or the alias to the location you want.

The original plug-in must remain in the Plug-in folder in the Apple Color OneScanner folder or you will not be able to create new scans with the OneScanner Dispatcher application.
