Welcome screen
After any prerequisites are installed, the PrintShop Mail installer Welcome screen appears.
Click Next to continue with the PrintShop Mail installation.
If the installation is an upgrade over a pre-existing Connect installation, the installer will first
uninstall the earlier version. If you would like to keep the information from your existing
installation, check the "Remove User data" checkbox. This will retain the MySQL database
from pre-2022.1 installations.
License Agreement
The next page displays the Skin/Formats/CrossReferencePrintFormat("" on page๎1), which
needs to be read and accepted before clicking Next.
Component Selection
After clicking the Next button, the Component Selection page appears, in which the different
components of PrintShop Mail Connect can be selected for installation.
The options are:
l Base: The installation files required for any PrintShop Mail Connect Connect installation.
This component is not optional.
l Designer: The Designer module (see "The Designer" on page๎103) can be installed
standalone (with no other installed modules)๎on as many machines as you like. It does
not require a license to run as a standalone designer tool . This allows any number of
people to use the Designer for creating jobs, but without production capabilities such as
automation and commingling. The Designer module is optional, but it is recommended
that it always be installed.
l MariaDB Server: A supplied MariaDB๎database used by PrintShop Mail Connect.
The database is used for referencing temporary Connect files and for sorting temporarily
extracted data, and similar.
A pre-existing MariaDB, MySQL or Microsoft SQL server (referred to as an external
database, in this documentation) could be used instead, for the same purposes. The
external database could reside on the same computer or on a separate server.
If you wish to make use of an external database, please make sure the MariaDB option is
not selected.
