SOME TIPS ON USING JPEGView 3.0 for the Macintosh
You can transfer a .hqx file as ASCII. The suffix means BinHex, and you will
need to "de-binhex" before you can decompress. Stuffit Lite will perform
both actions, and if you don't already have it, it is available at
sumex-aim, or any number of sites. Once you have de-binhexed, any number of
applications will decompress from .cpt (CompactPro).
Open Stuffit Lite, and in the rightmost window (Translate), choose Binhex 4,
select the file in the dialog window , & hit
Return.Then under the same window, choose Cpt Extract, select the file
(there will now be two jpegview files; find the one
_without_ the .hqx suffix) and run it again. Now you have the JPEGView 3.0
folder ready to use. Drop the INIT into your system folder as directed, and
open the application. Set preferences, click in the File menu, find a
file you wish to view, and Open it.
A note of caution: When the INIT is installed as directed, the application
will open both .gif and .jpg files. If you wish to take advantage of the
"save as" function with .jpg files, (so they can have an image preview and
thumbnail image icon; see ) you must increase the JPEGView
application memory size significantly. I have found that for all but the
most massive files (like human.01.jpg, a monster) 2500K is sufficient (3000K
for the few biggies). Afterwards, viewing can be done with 1500K or so. It
is a good idea to turn off unnecessary memory-eating extensions while saving
the files to JPEG Pict format.
I have opened and saved all of the 200 Vatican Library files.
Email if you have questions or problems. In case you get no response, it
only means I have a new Internet address; I expect one in the Spring of
1994. I will try to remember to update this posting, but if I don't--
