Installing Picture PlannerTM

Macintosh Installation Instructions

IMPORTANT:

  • You must have the Arial font installed in order to view Picture Planner cleanly. It is likely that you already have it installed but if not, you may download the Arial font for free at: http://download.microsoft.com/download/Office9Mac/Update/2.90/MacOS/EN-US/CoreFonts_update.bin
  • Even if you don't have a printer attached to your computer, you must have one selected with the Printer Setup Utility.

Windows Installation Instructions

IMPORTANT:

  • You must have QuickTime (version 3.0 or greater) installed. If you don't have it installed, the Picture Planner installer will install it for you. You may also download the latest version of QuickTime for free at: http://www.apple.com/quicktime
  • Even if you don't have a printer attached to your computer, you must have one selected and set as your default printer. To set a default printer, go to the "Start" menu, select "Settings," and then select "Control Panel." Double click the "Printers" folder to open it. You should see a printer icon with a checkmark on it. If you have a printer icon, but it doesn't have a black arrow on it, use your right mouse button to click on the printer icon. Select "Default Printer"
