Installing and Starting the Brother Conversion Software We recommend that you make a copy of the Brother Conversion Software diskette before you start the installation. You can work from the copy made, and keep the original diskette in a safe place in case it is needed in the future. Computer System Requirements The Brother Conversion Software runs under MS-DOS on any IBM-PC, PC/AT, PS/2 and compatible computer. The computer must have at least one floppy disk drive, a hard disk drive, and 512 KB or more of memory. If your system has a color monitor, the program automatically uses it to the best advantage. Installing and Startingfrom Your Hard Disk Drive To install the Brother Conversion Software on your hard disk drive, power up your computer as usual, and get the C> prompt. Then insert the Brother Conversion diskette in your disk drive, default to that drive (either A: or B:) and type INSTALL. For example: C>A: m .11 A>INSTALL This starts the installation program which automatically creates a subdirectory, on your C: drive, named "BROTHER", and copies all necessary files into that subdi- rectory. The installation program also creates a batch file, on your C: drive, called "CONVERT.BAT". Each time you want to start the Brother Conversion Software, type the command CONVERT at the C> prompt. For example: C >C0NVERT Then after a brief opening screen, the main menu screen appears. 244
