Chapter 4: Working with Cutouts
4 – 24 VARIQUEST DESIGN CENTER SOFTWARE USER GUIDE
When you purchase additional content, you will receive a CD.
• For Letters, Numbers & Symbols and for Collections, the CD contains the licensed fonts or
collections.
• For Shapes, the CD contains a specified number of “credits” that can be used to activate
cutout shapes of your choice that are already in the Design Center Software library.
Installing Fonts, Collections, and Shape Credits
The installation process for content and “credits” CDs is simple:
1. Insert the CD into the CD-ROM drive of your DC1000 or the PC on which the Design
Center Software is installed.
2. A welcome screen will appear. To continue, touch or click the
Next button.
3. Fonts and collections only: The license screen will appear. Read the license and touch
or click the option to
Accept. Then touch or click Next.
4. The registration screen will appear, prompting you to call the Registration Center at 1-
800-328-0585. The first time you make the call, be prepared to provide your school or
organization’s contact information, such as the school name and address, the name and
contact information for the individual who decided to purchase the VariQuest™ Visual
Learning Tools, and for the individual responsible for managing the suite of learning
tools. Every time you install a content CD, you will be asked to read off the alpha-
numeric registration key that appears on this screen.
5. When the Registration Center directs you to, enter the four-part activation code in the
spaces provided.
6. Touch or click the Next button.
7. The content will be installed, and you will receive a message verifying installation.
Once installed, new fonts will be added to the list of fonts to select from when you preview
your
Letters, Numbers & Symbols cutouts. New collections will be added to the display of
collection thumbnails you see when you search or browse for a collection.
For shapes, however, because all available designs are already included in the Design Center
Software, after you install the credit CD, you can activate shapes whenever you wish until the
credits are used up.
