|
| NOTE: Some known problems |
| You have a program installed which will
not handle the G4 TIFF files, but NT has the file
type associated. Example: Adobe Photoshop, or possibly
a plug-in. |
| To manually associate a file format with
an application, but not the application's file icon: |
| 1.) Choose Start Programs Windows Explorer. |
| 2.) Select a file whose file format
association you want to change. For example, if you
want to change the file format association for all
TIFF files, select a TIFF file. |
| 3.) Press Shift+F10, or Shift+right-click
the file you selected in step 2. |
| 4.) Choose Open With from the pop-up
menu. (If Open With is not available, repeat steps
2-3.) |
| 5.) In the Open With dialog box,
select the application with which you want to associate
the file format. If the application isn't listed,
click Other, then locate the desired application. |
| 6.) Select the option labeled "Always
use this program to open files of this type" and click
OK. |
| 7.)Repeat steps 1-6 for any other
file format associations you want to change. |
| |
| To associate a file format with an application
and the application's file icon: |
| 1.) Choose Start Programs Windows Explorer. |
2.) Choose View Options (Windows 95 or Windows NT
4.0) or View Folder Options (Windows 98), and click the File Types tab. |
| 3.) Select to the file type you
want to associate with an application (e.g., JPEG
Image) from the Registered File Types scroll box,
then click Edit. |
| |
| The wang image viewer is not very good
at memory handling. If you open several files you
will probably start getting an error every time you
close a file. If this happens RIgh-Click in the Task
Bar to bring up Task Manager, Select the Processes
Tab, Click on Image Name to sort the existing processes
by name, You will most likely see several wangimg.exe
listings, Select each one and Choose End Process to
eliminate them. |
