• File N#: This should be a reference number that will help you locate prints or negatives.
• <PhotoCD field>: This area of the window will show an icon of an image if a picture have been loaded into the record by pressing the command "Select picture"
• Select picture: A select dialog opens up for you to select the image or PhotoCD picture. It is recommended that you select PhotoCD images of the format 192x128. This will open faster.
• Open picture: If an icon shows on the "PhotoCD field" and this bottom is press, Photomatica will try to open the picture using a compatible application.
note: Photomatica moves to the background when the image opens. If the PhotoCD where the image is store is not mounted a dialog will ask you to insert the disc. I recommend Aaron Giles' JPEGView. It is an excellent viewer for PhotoCD files. JPEG View is postcardware and available on Compuserve and other online services as well as several ftp sites.
