FACELIFT FOR MICROSOFT WINDOWS Version 1.2 INSTALL.TXT 3/91 This file describes FaceLift installation procedures. The instructions assume you are familiar with Windows and Windows' terms. The instructions you need depend on * The version of Windows you are using (3.0 or 2.x) * Whether you are installing FaceLift for the first time or upgrading from an earlier version of FaceLift * Whether you are on a network Choose the instructions that apply to you: * For Windows 3.0: Installing FaceLift for the first time * For Windows 3.0: Re-installing FaceLift (for upgrades) * For Windows 3.0: Installing FaceLift on a network * For Windows 3.0: Re-installing FaceLift on network * For Windows 2.x: Installing FaceLift for the first time * For Windows 2.x: Re-installing FaceLift (for upgrades) * For Windows 2.x: Installing FaceLift and Windows 2.x from a network or hard disk directory FOR WINDOWS 3.0: INSTALLING FACELIFT FOR THE FIRST TIME To install FaceLift for Windows 3.0 for the first time 1 Install Windows 3.0 if you haven't done so already. 2 Start Windows. 3 Open the Program Manager. 4 Select Run from the File menu. 5 Put disk 1 (Utility disk) from your FaceLift package into a disk drive. 6 In the Command Line box, type A:INSTALL (or B:INSTALL) and click OK. 7 Follow the prompts on the screen. 8 Install the Bitstream typefaces by following the prompts on the screen. The FaceLift installation program creates a new program group (the square icon also used for Windows applications, accessories, etc.) in the Program Manager, which shows the FaceLift icon ("B"). If you prefer, you can move the FaceLift icon to another program group and delete the empty program group. FOR WINDOWS 3.0: RE-INSTALLING FACELIFT (FOR UPGRADES) To install version 1.2 of FaceLift for Windows 3.0 if you have an earlier version installed, follow these instructions. If you already have FaceLift typefaces installed, do not re-install them. They work with version 1.2. But you need to make the earlier version of FaceLift inactive. To do this 1 Open FaceLift and open the Parameters option. 2 Turn off the FaceLift active box. 3 Turn off the Save Cache to disk box. 4 Click OK to exit the Parameters dialog box. 5 Click OK when the message "Your system settings have changed..." appears. 6 Open the Printers option. 7 Highlight all the printers in the Installed Printers box. 8 Choose Unassign Shell-driver. 9 Click OK to exit the Printers dialog box. 10 Exit FaceLift and click the button to restart Windows. 11 At the Windows Program Manager, check to see if the Bitstream FaceLift icon ("B") exists. If it does, delete it by highlighting the icon, and press the Delete key. If the Bitstream FaceLift program group icon (the square icon also used for Windows applications, accessories, etc.) exists, delete it too. Now install version 1.2 of FaceLift. To do this 1 Start Windows, if it is not already open. 2 Open the Program Manager. 3 Select Run from the File menu. 4 Put the new disk 1 (Utility disk) into the disk drive. Make sure that "Rev. 1.2" appears near the lower edge of the disk label. 5 In the Command Line box, type A:INSTALL (or B:INSTALL) and click OK. 6 Follow the prompts on the screen. 7 When the Typefaces dialog box appears, check to see if the typefaces are installed. (The typeface names appear to the left, behind the "Please insert Disk 1 from the Bitstream Typeface Package" message.) If the typefaces are installed, press Cancel to exit the message, and Cancel to exit the Typeface dialog box. If they are not installed, install them now. FOR WINDOWS 3.0: INSTALLING FACELIFT ON A NETWORK These instructions for installing FaceLift for Windows 3.0 on a network are in two parts. Part 1 is for network administrators; part 2 is for users. The network administrator must install FaceLift for at least one workstation. The administrator can then choose to install FaceLift for the remaining workstations, or have the users install FaceLift for their own workstations, by following the instructions in part 2. NOTE: The FaceLift license agreement requires the purchase of one copy of FaceLift for each computer. If you are installing FaceLift on a network, you may be interested in making multiple installations with one copy of FaceLift. If so, please contact Bitstream or your local software dealer to purchase a Bitstream FaceLift Multi-License Pack. Part 1: Instructions for Network Administrators 1 Log in as administrator and change to the Windows directory on the network server. 2 Put disk 1 (Utility disk) into the disk drive. Make sure that "Rev. 1.2" appears near the lower edge of the disk label. 3 Type A:NETWORK A: (or substitute the appropriate drive letter) and press Enter to start the batch file NETWORK.BAT. This installs certain files from the disk to the Windows network directory. 4 Install FaceLift for the first workstation: Start Windows for the workstation. Open the Program Manager. Select Run from the File menu. In the Command Line box, type INSTALL and click OK. Follow the prompts on the screen. 5 When installing typefaces, make sure you copy them to a shared network typeface directory. After installing typefaces and before exiting the Typefaces dialog box, follow these additional steps to create a list of typefaces in the shared network typeface directory. With the Typefaces dialog box still open, press Shift+Ctrl and click Exit. A new dialog box appears. Change the pathname to the shared network directory. Click OK. Now the typefaces are installed in the first Windows user's WIN.INI file and also in the TFP.CFG file in the shared network typeface directory. For the remaining workstations, you can install typefaces from this shared directory, instead of from the FaceLift Utility disk. 6 Continue installing FaceLift for the remaining workstations, or have the users install FaceLift on their own workstations. If users are going to install FaceLift, they must have access to the shared network typeface directory. Part 2: Instructions for Users Follow these instructions if the network administrator tells you to install FaceLift on your workstation. (Make sure the administrator has completed part 1.) 1 Start Windows. 2 Open the Windows Program Manager. 3 Select Run from the File menu. 4 In the Command Line box, type INSTALL and click OK. 5 Follow the prompts on the screen. 6 When installing the typefaces, make sure you copy them from the shared network typeface directory. (See the network administrator if you don't know the name of the directory.) 7 Open the Parameters option. Under Cache file, change the drive and pathname to your own Windows directory (which contains the WIN.INI file). You can keep the same file name for the Cache file. FaceLift is installed. If you have any problems, see the network administrator. FOR WINDOWS 3.0: RE-INSTALLING FACELIFT ON A NETWORK The network administrator should follow these instructions for installing version 1.2 of FaceLift for Windows 3.0 on a network if an earlier version is installed. 1 Follow the instructions for inactivating the earlier version of FaceLift for one workstation (steps 1 though 11) in "For Windows 3.0: Re-installing Facelift (for Upgrades)" above. 2 Follow steps 1 through 4 in "For Windows 3.0: Installing FaceLift on a Network" (Part 1) above. Steps 1 through 3 update the FaceLift files on the network server. Step 4 installs the new NAMETABLE.INI into the Windows directory of the first workstation. Make sure this is the same workstation with the inactivated earlier version of FaceLift. (The FaceLift typefaces are already installed, so you don't need to install them again.) 3 Copy the new NAMETABLE.INI file to the remaining workstations' Windows directories. FOR WINDOWS 2.X: INSTALLING FACELIFT FOR THE FIRST TIME The FaceLift installation program modifies Windows device drivers so they can print or display FaceLift fonts. It also modifies the WIN.INI file. The program installs FaceLift and the modified version of Windows 2.x into a new, empty directory on your system. Before you start, you should know the type of display adaptor or display driver you use in Windows. 1 Start from the DOS prompt. No other program, such as a previously installed version of Windows, should be running. 2 Use the DOS command MKDIR to create a new directory for FaceLift and the FaceLift modified version of Windows. 3 Use the DOS command CHDIR to change to your new directory. 4 Put disk 1 (Utility disk) from the FaceLift package into a disk drive. (Or read "Installing FaceLift and Windows 2.x from a Network or Hard Disk Directory" below.) Make sure that disk 1 says "Rev. 1.2" at the lower edge of the disk label. 5 Start the program by typing A:INSTALL (or B:INSTALL) and press Enter. 6 Follow the prompts on the screen. 7 When the installation program shows a list of Windows-supported drivers, make a note of the number that corresponds to your driver. (If your driver is not on the list, it is not one of the common drivers provided by Microsoft. You need to add it to the file FLDRIVER.LST, which is in your current directory. Edit FLDRIVER.LST with any text editor and read the instructions at the beginning of the file. After you have made the changes, save FLDRIVER.LST as an unformatted ASCII file. Restart the installation program (from the new Windows directory) by typing FLMENU and press Enter.) 8 When the installation program prompts you, type this command: FL X: Y Z <Enter> where FL is the command name X: is the letter of your disk drive Y is the number of disks in your Windows 2.x package (If your disk driver was provided by the manufacturer of your monitor, Y includes the number of Windows disks PLUS the driver disk) Z is the number that corresponds to your display driver If you make a mistake, press CTRL+BRK and re-try the command. (The installation program copies some files to the currently selected hard disk. It also copies some temporary files to your root directory: FACELIFT.ORG, FACELIFT.GRB, FACELIFT.LGO, FACELIFT.3EX, and FACELIFT.386. If, by chance, there are files by these names in the root directory, they will be deleted!) 9 When prompted, put your Windows disks in the disk drive, one at a time. (If you have a separate disk containing your display driver, be sure to insert that too.) Be sure to insert the Windows Setup disk last. 10 After copying files it needs from the Windows disks, the installation program begins with the Windows setup procedure. Be alert! You will answer some of the setup questions differently than you did when you first installed Windows. This time you will install a display driver with a name like "WIN2 Screen Driver Interface V.1.0" instead of the standard name you might expect. * Enter the name of your current directory as the Windows directory. * If Setup asks you for your hardware configuration, give the normal answers. Very shortly you will alter some selections. * Choose the option to change the display driver. Select the last line of possible drivers, which is labeled "Other drivers." * If Setup asks you for the drive where the driver is to be loaded from, type the drive letter of your hard disk. (For example, C:) * Look for a display driver with a name such as "WIN2 Screen Driver Interface V.1.0" and select it. * Answer other prompts in Setup the same way you did the first time you installed Windows 2.x. 11 Put the Windows disks in the disk drive as Setup requests them. 12 After all required files have been installed, the modified version of Windows will start and you will see the FaceLift Typefaces dialog box. If Windows does not start, you did something wrong during the installation. Re-read the instructions and try again. If you don't succeed, call Bitstream Technical Support at 617-497-7514. 13 Begin installing the Bitstream typefaces by inserting a FaceLift Typeface disk in the drive and selecting the drive. 14 Select Add, and select the typefaces you want to copy to your hard disk. 15 Select Copy. 16 Select OK to accept the default typeface directory, or type a new directory name and select OK. 17 After FaceLift, Windows, and your Bitstream typefaces have been installed, you have one last thing to do before using FaceLift. Remove three of the standard Windows (.FON) fonts that you will not need with FaceLift: Roman, Script, and Modern. These three fonts can potentially interfere with FaceLift's operation. To remove the .FON fonts, use the Windows Control Panel (CONTROL.EXE) or, if you are an experienced user, edit the WIN.INI file with Notepad. FOR WINDOWS 2.X: RE-INSTALLING FACELIFT (FOR UPGRADES) To install version 1.2 of FaceLift for Windows 2.x, you must first delete Windows 2.x and the earlier version of FaceLift. Then you re-install Windows 2.x and version 1.2 of FaceLift. 1 Make a backup copy of your Windows 2.x directory. (FaceLift is included in the Windows directory.) 2 Use the DOS command DELETE to delete the contents of the Windows directory. 3 Follow the instructions in "For Windows 2.x: Installing FaceLift for the First Time" above. FOR WINDOWS 2.X: INSTALLING FACELIFT AND WINDOWS 2.X FROM A NETWORK OR HARD DISK DIRECTORY Follow these instructions if you prefer to install FaceLift for Windows 2.x from a directory on a network or your hard drive, instead of a disk drive. NOTE: The FaceLift license agreement requires the purchase of one copy of FaceLift for each computer. If you are installing FaceLift on a network, you may be interested in making multiple installations with one copy of FaceLift. If so, please contact Bitstream or your local software dealer to purchase a Bitstream FaceLift Multi-License Pack. 1 Copy the contents of all Windows 2.x disks to the desired directory. 2 Copy the contents of the FaceLift disks to the same directory. Make sure that disk 1 says "Rev. 1.2" at the lower edge of the disk label. 3 If the directory is on a network, use the DOS command CHDIR to make it be your current directory. If the directory is on your hard disk, use the DOS command SUBST to make it correspond to a disk drive. NOTE: If you are not familiar with these DOS commands, see a DOS reference book. 4 Follow the instructions in "For Windows 2.x: Installing FaceLift for the First Time" above. For the drive letters, use the letter of the network directory or the letter you chose for the hard drive. For the number of Windows disks, use 1.
