WP
 It is recommended that you use the installation program for installing
 GSview.  The following instructions describe how to install GSview
 without using the installation program.

 Set the environment variable TEMP to point to a directory for
 temporary files.  For example:
   SET TEMP=c:\temp
 The directory must exist and must be writeable.

 First you need to install Ghostscript, plus its library files and fonts.
 You need the Ghostscript version listed in `Overview`.
 This version of GSview will not work with other versions of Ghostscript.
 Install Ghostscript in a directory c:\gs\gsN.NN
 (Replace N.NN by the Ghostscript version number.)

 Make a directory c:\ghostgum\gsview

 Next install
P
 PM GSview by copying gvpm.exe, gvpgs.exe,
 gvpmde.dll, gvpmes.dll, gvpmfr.dll, gvpmit.dll,
 gvpmen.hlp, gvpmde.hlp, gvpmes.hlp, gvpmfr.hlp, gvpmit.hlp
 and printer.ini

 GSview for Windows by copying gsview32.exe, gsv16spl.exe, gvwgs32.exe,
 gsvw32de.dll, gsvw32es.dll, gsvw32fr.dll, gsvw32it.dll,
 gsviewen.hlp, gsviewde.hlp, gsviewes.hlp, gsviewfr.hlp, gsviewit.hlp
 and printer.ini
WP
 to the `c:\ghostgum\gsview` directory.

P
 Start GSview then follow the instructions given in the
 configuration wizard.  This will automatically configure
 `Options` | `Advanced Configure`, copy a list of known
 printers to the INI file,
 and create a GSview program object on the desktop.

 If you want to run the configure wizard later, use
 `Options` | `Easy Configure`.
W
 Start GSview and select the appropriate version of Ghostscript
 (usually the latest).  To change this later, use
 `Options` | `Easy Configure`.
E

 For more control over configuration, see `Advanced Manual Installation`.
3Advanced Manual Installation
?Advanced Manual Installation
WP
 Instead of using `Options` | `Easy Configure`, use
 `Options` | `Advanced Configure`.

 First correctly set the three text fields (see `Advanced Configure`).

P
 Exit GSview, then append printer.ini to the GSview INI file
 (c:\os2\gvpm.ini).

 Create a desktop program object for GSview, associating it
 with the file extensions .ps, .eps and .pdf.

W
 On the `Advanced Configure` dialog, either select the checkboxes
 `Copy printer defaults`, `Associate .ps files with GSview` and
 `Create Start Menu items`, or perform the following three steps.

 1. Exit GSview, then append printer.ini to the GSview INI file
 (c:\windows\gsview32.ini)

 2. Add the .ps and .eps (and optionally the .pdf) file types to
 the `Registry`.

 3. Create a Program Manager or Start Menu item for GSview.
X
 After starting GSview, use `Options` | `Advanced Configure`.
 Set the Ghostscript version number to match your copy of Ghostscript.
 If `gs -h` reports 5.50, enter 550.  If `gs -h` reports 6.50, enter 650.
 Correctly set the following three text fields (see `Advanced Configure`).
E

 If you have some Type 1 fonts on your system, it may be possible to
 tell Ghostscript to use them.  See `Fontmap.os2` and `Fontmap.atm`
 supplied with Ghostscript for examples.  See the `Fonts` topic.

 If you have problems, try reading the help topic `Common Problems`.
WP
3Network Installation
?Network Installation
?User Profiles
 Install GSview to a network directory.

 When a user starts GSview for the first time, or starts GSview
 after the version number has changed, GSview will configure
 the local computer.

 Using a UNC path when installing GSview will not work
 from Windows 3.1, but does work from Windows 95.

W
 GSview tries to maintain one configuration file for each user.
 If user profiles are being used under Windows 95 or NT,
 GSview will store the INI file in the user profile directory,
 as specified in the registry.  If this can't be found,
 and the environment variable USERPROFILE is defined and is
 a directory, GSview will store the INI file in this directory.
 If this fails, GSview will store the INI file in the default
 location, the Windows directory.
 If the user profile directory exists, but is write protected,
 GSview will have trouble.

WP
 If you wish to stop GSview from displaying the `Easy Configure`
 when GSview is first run, or whenever GSview is upgraded,
 place an INI file in the GSview directory.
 `Remember to remove this file before upgrading GSview in the future.`
 This should contain only those entries that you wish to overwrite
 in the users configuration.
 The suggested technique is to install GSview, then configure it.
 Copy gsview32.ini or gvpm.ini from the system directory or your
 user profile directory to the GSview directory, then edit it to
 remove all entries except for:
  [GSview-4.6]
  Version=4.6
  GSversion=813
  Configured=1
  GhostscriptDLL=e:\gs\gs8.13\bin\gsdll32.dll
  GhostscriptInclude=e:\gs\gs8.13\lib;e:\gs\fonts
  GhostscriptOther=-dNOPLATFONTS -sFONTPATH="c:\psfonts"
 When a user starts GSview, their INI file will normally be used.
 The first time GSview is run, or when the GSview version doesn't
 match the INI file, the following will occur:

 1. The INI file in the GSview directory will be read, overriding
 the users INI file.

 2. The list of printers will be updated from printer.ini in
 the GSview directory.

 3. File associations (.ps, .eps, .pdf) will NOT be made or changed.
 If you wish to change these you must use `Options` | `Advanced Configure`.

 4. Program Manager groups / Start menu items / Program objects
 will NOT be changed.
 If you wish to change these you must use `Options` | `Advanced Configure`.
W

 If you are installing on Windows NT4/2000, and you select "All Users",
 then the installer will write this gsview32.ini into your GSview
 directory.  You must have installed Ghostscript first.

 If a user tries to use the GSview uninstall program, it will
 try to delete the GSview and Ghostscript files on the network.
 Make sure the GSview and Ghostscript directories are not writeable
 by users.
 To be extra safe, you may wish to remove the file `uninstal.txt` from
 the GSview directory.

 Alternatively, if you want install GSview on each computer without
 any prompting, unzip the self extracting archive then run the setup
 program as follows:
  setup -name "Your Name" -number XXXXX-XXXXX "c:\ghostgum"

 A silent uninstall can be done using:
  "C:\Program Files\Ghostgum\gsview\uninstgs.exe" "C:\Program Files\Ghostgum\gsview\uninstal.txt" -q

3Running GSview from the File Manager or Windows Explorer
?Registration Info Editor
?File Manager
?Windows Explorer
?Registry
 If you used the GSview setup.exe program and answered `yes` to
 all the questions, the following configuration has already occurred.
 If you didn't update the registry during GSview installation,
 the following information explains how to do it manually.

 To run GSview when a PostScript file is double clicked in the
 File Manager, the following sequence must be followed to teach
 File Manager about PostScript files.

 From the `Program Manager`, run the Registration Info Editor using
 `File `| `Run...` then type `regedit`.
 From the `Registration Info Editor` select `Edit `| `Add File Type...`
 then enter the following fields:
  Identifier = psfile
  Filetype = PostScript
  Action = Open
  Command = c:\ghostgum\gsview\gsview32 %1
  Uses DDE = unchecked
  Action = Print
  Command = c:\ghostgum\gsview\gsview32 /p %1
  Uses DDE = unchecked
 Then press `OK`.

 From the `File Manager`, select `File `| `Associate` then
 enter the following fields:
  Files with Extension = ps
  Associate With = PostScript (gsview)
 Then press `OK`.

 That's it!  Now when you double click on a PostScript file,
 the `File Manager` will run GSview.  When you drop a PostScript
 file on the `Print Manager`, GSview will print the file.
 If you have a PostScript printer, this won't be useful.
 In this case you will need to remove the Print action from
 the registry.

 For Windows 95, the configuration is instead made using Windows
 Explorer.

 Start `Windows Explorer`.  Select `View `| `Options `.  Select the
 `File Types` tab.  Select the `New Type` button.
 Enter the following fields:
  Description of type = PostScript
  Associated Extension = PS EPS
 Press the `New` button, then enter
  Action = open
  Application used to perform action = c:\ghostgum\gsview\gsview32.exe
 Press the `OK` button

 Press the `New` button, then enter
  Action = print
  Application used to perform action = c:\ghostgum\gsview\gsview32.exe /p
 Press the `OK` button

 Press the `Close `button.

 Press the `Close `button.
