Creating your on-line shop will be a breeze with ShopFactory. ShopFactory has been awarded 4 stars by ZDNet for its ease of use and feature richness. ShopFactory Light will allow you to create your one department on-line shop in no time at all.

In fact we guarantee you will not find an easier to use editor to create professional Internet shops ranging from small text only shops to complete multimedia extravaganzas in 2D or 3D with links to larger images, sound and video files and much, much more.

See further down for types of shops to see what kind of shops you can create with point and click ease.

Just point and click to add departments, products and multimedia links, to add options and choices to your products, to customize your shop and even to automatically create a 3D virtual reality shopping environment, the future of shopping on the Internet.

You can choose payment options or define your own, have postage and tax calculated automatically for your customers, receive your order by email, put products on special, integrate catalog numbers, charge extra for options and choices, customize the look of your shop, allow customers to switch between 2D and 3D shopping, work with international currencies and weight units, use SSL for secure ordering, use PGP for encryption and automatically creates all the files so your shop will run as soon as it is uploaded.

You can even preview your complete shop on your local computer before uploading it with ShopFactorys' sophisticated FTP program. It can continue an interrupted upload and even remembers all the graphics you have already uploaded to cut down on uploading time when you have made changes to an existing shop - such as putting a product on special.

This sophisticated upload tool makes ShopFactory the ideal program not only for creating but also for maintaining your on-line shop.

To upload your shop you need a modem and an Internet connection. You shop will run as soon as it is uploaded.

If you have downloaded the zip file, you will have to manually unzip the file to install it. We recommend Winzip for installation. Open the file with Winzip, click on the Install button and follow instructions.

Otherwise double-click on the setup.exe file to start the installation.

You will be able to enter your shop on the internet via enter.html at the location to which you uploaded. You can also rename the enter.html file.

• Preview:
  If you use ASCII characters other than the letters a-z and numbers in names of departments and products Preview may not work. To overcome this problem many of these characters are automatically removed by the program. We suggest you do not use other characters than the letters a-z and numbers in titles. This includes the names of departments, products, of options and choices as well as the names of shipping methods and delivery and tax areas. However you can try for yourself.

• Product Descriptions
  Product descriptions as well as Terms and Conditions and simular pages are limited to 1500 characters including spaces.

• Hard Disk Space
  When you run out of hard disk space you will normally get a warning message "Out of Memory". This means you do not have enough space to save your shop. Before saving your shop you must make space on your hard disk.

  ShopFactory does not know in advance how many products you want to add to your shop and therefore can't warn you in advance. You must make sure before building a shop that you have enough hard disk space available, as you may not always be able to create extra space on your hard disk.

  When building a shop, ShopFactory creates a temporary file in the swap folder of your ShopFactory folder. Make sure you have about 2MB of free hard disk space on the hard disk ShopFactory is installed on for every 100 products or departments you want to add. This swap file is replaced each time you create a new shop or work on another shop. The actual size of the file you save when you store your shop is much smaller.
