Installing ePublisher Components

This section provides instructions for installing ePublisher components, including ePublisher Express, ePublisher Pro, and ePublisher AutoMap.

Note: You must install ePublisher Express first. Then, you can install ePublisher Pro and ePublisher AutoMap. Both ePublisher Pro and ePublisher AutoMap require ePublisher Express.

If you are upgrading from a previous version of ePublisher, review the upgrade instructions. For more information, see “Upgrading from Previous Versions” on page 32.

To install ePublisher components

  1. Log on as a user using a user account that is a member of the Administrators group on the local computer.

  8. If you select this check box, ePublisher Express users can modify target settings, condition settings, variable values, and cross-reference definitions used to generate output. This option gives users more control over their ePublisher output, but users can produce output that differs from the standards defined in Stationery.

  9. If you 'do not' select this check box, ePublisher Express users cannot modify target settings, condition settings, variable values, and cross-reference definitions. Projects use the target settings, condition settings, variable values, and cross-reference definitions defined in the Stationery.

You can enable permissions to modify target settings, conditions settings, variable values, and cross-definitions later if needed. For more information, see “Enabling Target Setting Permissions After Installing ePublisher Express” on page 27.
