10-2 Technical Information
Before You Begin
If you have a problem with OmniForm, first check that your computer,
scanner, and other applications are functioning properly.
Make backups of OmniForm files regularly, preferably in a location
other than your hard drive. This could save you hours or days of work
if the unexpected happens: file deletion or corruption caused by disk
crashes, viruses, or user error.
Try this First
It may help to try one or all of the following:
• Turn off your computer, restart your scanner, and then restart
your computer.
• Restart the computer with extensions off to determine if there is a
an extension conflict.
• Reinstall OmniForm.
System Setup Checklist
• Make sure that your system meets all requirements as listed in
“System Requirements” on page 2-2.
• Make sure that your scanner is plugged in and turned on, and
that all cable connections are secure.
• Use the software that came with your scanner to verify that it
works properly before using it with OmniForm.
• Fix Macintosh problems before using OmniForm again.
• Run virus-checking software regularly.
• Scan your disk for problems occasionally: use a utility that checks
and diagnoses damaged disks and files, such as MacTools™ or
Norton Utilities™.
• Defragment your hard disk occasionally with a program such as
MacTools or Norton Utilities.
