  Using the Art Madness Graphics Disks
    Key Terms: vector image, raster image

Art Madness provides you with an enormous variety of images for everyday
               documents and desktop publishing projects.

 Vector Images: You'll find more than 69,000 premium-quality ,'vector" clip
art images. Vector images are comprised of lines and curves and, therefore,
     print crisp and clear no matter what the size. Organized by topic and
    overwhelmingly in color, these images are provided in WMF format for
                   Windows and EPS format for Macintosh.

Raster Images: Raster Images: Also included are more than 10,000 300-DPI
"raster" images. Raster images are high-quality bitmapped images. These
images are not scalable to the same degree but can be edited in programs like
 Photoshop and PhotoPaint. Comprised mainly of color images, this category
    offers files in TIFF (TIF) format for both Windows and Macintosh.
Traditional Images: We've included more than 17,000 300-DPI classical and
  historical images, ideal for more traditional uses. These black and white
images are furnished in TIFF (TIF) format for both Windows and Macintosh.

Technical Symbols: Art Explosion 125,000 contains 5000 technical symbols,
   conveniently provided in more than 100 different files. These symbols are
  useful not only for engineering and architectural purposes but for home and
office use, too. You can, for example, create a floorplan to remodel your home,
  lay out a new backyard for a landscape contractor or even design a pool or
                                  sports court.

 These files, also vector graphics, are provided in WMF format for Windows
 and PICT format for Macintosh and are designed to be used in drawing and
        CAD programs such as Corel Draw, ClarisDraw and Canvas.

 Photographs: You'll find more than 20,000 24-bit 72-DPI color photographs,
 arranged in more than 100 topic areas-each of them ideal for Internet use and
 presentations of all kinds. These files are provided in JPEG (.JPG) format for
both Windows and Macintosh and can be reduced in your desktop publishing or
            word processing program for higher-resolution printing.


 Backgrounds: Like Art Explosion's photographs, the 2500 backgrounds are
 provided as 24-bit 72-DPI color JPEG (.JPG) images. These images are ideal
   for placement behind text, either for presentations or-depending upon the
                       resolution you require-for print.

                    Finding Your Way Around
Art Madness 125,000 makes it easy to find the right image for any project. Just
             remember that there are six categories of images:

 1. Vector Clip Art 2. Technical Symbols 3. Raster Images 4. Photographs 5.
                      Traditional Images 6. Backgrounds

   When looking for an appropriate graphic, you may either use the table of
    contents on Page 17 or the index at the end of this manual. Once you've
  pinpointed the desired image, take note of which of the six categories the
                                  image is in.
               Selecting an Image On The Server
The images in Art Madness span many CD-ROMs and are divided into subject
   area by category and subcategory. You will find smaller topics such as
 Agriculture housed in just one category folder. In contrast, larger categories
 such as Animals have subcategory folders inside with more specific choices
               (for example, Birds, Domestic, Aquatic, etc.).

                  Two Ways to Select an Image
Art Explosion makes it easy to add clip art to any document by giving you two
               convenient ways to locate appropriate images:

The File Import Method: Use the 800-page directory in Parts Two and Three
of this User Manual and add the image into your document directly. This is the
                         simpler of the two methods.

The Image Catalog Method: See color previews of each and every image in a
 category using that category's Image Catalog. You may then "drag and drop"
      the desired image into documents in certain supported applications.



In general, you may want to use the Image Catalog Method if you wish to see a
    preview of a color image or if you are using PageMaker, Quark XPress,
 FreeHand, Adobe Illustrator or Adobe Photoshop. You should, however, have
 sufficient memory (RAM) to run both the Catalog Reader and the application.


                      The File Import Method
Let's get down to business! Selecting an image is easy. Just follow these steps:

1. Choose the topic area that most closely describes the image you are seeking.
 You may also find it helpful to use the Quick Locator Index at the end of this
                                 User Manual.
          2 Pinpoint the image that best meets your needs. (If you're
                  unsure, you can examine more than one.)

3 Take mental note of the image's location. For example, if you wish to use an
 image of a floppy disk it will be important to know that it resides inside the
Media folder inside the Computers folder. Please also note whether the image
                   is vector or raster or another category.

        4 Double-click your desktop publishing, graphics or word pro-
                 cessing program and open your document.

6 Choose the appropriate command, listed below, and specify the format (EPS,
           TIFF or JPEG), if necessary, in the resulting dialog box.

Note: Most graphics programs will allow you to both place (import) or open
 an Art Explosion image. If you open the image, you will be able to edit it.

                      Word About File Names
As you may already know, Art Madness is the only large scale clip art product
               that offers real Macintosh clip art files names.

For example, if a file contains a title which reads "Happy Birthday," we say so.
         In this case the file name would be Happy Birthday Title.

 Other publishers of clip art give you DOS files that they've imply "ported" to
  the Macintosh. So the same file may be called HYBDYTL.WMF instead.


 Now you can say No! to 8-character DOS file names and easy find the right
                  image without visions of C> prompts!

                    The Image Catalog Method
 We've included Kudo Catalog Reader software to enable you see on-screen
  color previews of images prior to adding them to ur document. Each Art
 Explosion CD-ROM contains both clip art and corresponding Kudo image
                                  catalogs.

 In the case of many programs, you can also use the image catgs to "drag and
  drop" the desired image into your document. If u are running System 7.1 or
later and wish to drag an image into eMaker, Quark XPress, FreeHand, Adobe
 Illustrator or Adobe otoshop, you should be running the appropriate program
                           alonge the image catalog.

                      Just follow these steps:
             1. Find your image on the Shared CD-ROM server.

         2. Copy it to the clipboard and / or insert it to Powerpoint.

(Songs and sounds can also be retreived from these CD-ROMS using a similar
                                   process)
