Free to use online version . . .

How it works.

The free to use version is an Applet that runs like other web browser add-ins. For it to run Java must be installed. The first steps below are to ensure the correct version of Java is present.

What it does.

It works just like the standalone programme. Digital photographs are loaded in from your computer and results stored back to disk. Results can be printed. All data resides on your computer, the programme resides on the web. No personal information is passed back from your computer.

Steps for using the online version . . . .

Configure your browser and computer.

When the programme is launched a built in security request will appear. Select "Yes" or "Always". This is needed to allow the programme access to your computer to load and save data.

Launch programme.		Open help file.
Start the download in a new browser window.		The help file opens in a new browser window.
Save sample target to your hard disk: exampleExpress24g (use right click "save as")
