To install a Q++ UNICODE Workstation:
1)If this is a Workstation Re-Installation, then you should a) make a back-up of the entire C:\Qpp\ folder and sub-folders, and b) you should de-activate you copy of QuarkXPress (if using QuarkXPress 6 or above), before reformatting your PC or re-installing Windows.
2)Make sure that the computer meets the Configuration Requirements.
3)If you do not have a copy of the latest Q++Workstation Installation Program, start downloading it now (it is about 50 MB in size), and continue with the next steps while the installation programs is being downloaded.
4)Make sure that a Q++ Server is installed. If not, install it now, before proceeding to the next step.
5)Create a network drive Q:\ which maps directly to the C:\ drive of the Q++ Server (if you do not know how to do this, see the instructions here).
6)Sitting at the workstation, open the folder Q:\Q++ Server\ and double-click on the program Q++Users.exe. Wait for 20 seconds and then email us the file Q++Users.ini, located in the same folder, and continue with the next steps while a licence file is being created for you.
7)If you are installing more than one workstation at the same time, you should perform steps 1-4-5 on each of the other workstations, before proceeding to this next step. Here you will do either of the 2 following:
•If this is a Workstation Re-Installation, then you should now restore the entire C:\Qpp\ and C:\Q++ Studio\ folders and sub-folders from the latest available backup.
•If this is an Additional Workstation Installation, then you should now copy all the files of the format Q++Ini.* and the single file Q++.ini from the C:\Qpp\ folder of another workstation, one which has already been in use with Q++ Studio, and whose default settings are satisfactory for your company.
8)Install QuarkXPress, making sure to accept the default installation path that the installation program proposes (otherwise, future upgrades of QuarkXPress may be difficult, or even impossible).
a)Apply all necessary updates to bring your version of QuarkXPress to either of the minimum QuarkXPress versions required.
b)If you have installed QuarkXPress 6, or above, launch it once and go through the activation process.
9)Before proceeding to the next step, wait until the completion of the download initiated in step 2, and until you have received a license file from technical support, in response to the ini file you sent in step 5.
10)Open the ZIP file sent by technical support, and extract the 3 files (Q++Studio.BIN, Q++Studio.CRC and Q++Studio.STE), to the folder Q:\Q++ Server\ (if asked if you want to overwrite the existing files, answer Yes).
11)Launch the installation program Q++WorkstationSetup_UNICODE.EXE that you downloaded in step 3, and accept all the default options proposed to you (if you encounter any error or warning messages, please see the section on Workstation Installation Messages).
12)If you are using Windows 7 or above, make sure that QuarkXPress is set to run in Windows XP Compatibility Mode.
13)After the installation is complete, remove any CDs or DVDs from the computer, and restart Windows.
