1.3 About this document
Target users This guide has been written for both users that want to install programs for the
first time and for system administrators. Therefore it is inevitable that when
reading this guide you may feel that it is not addressed to you either because
the procedures described are familiar to you or because the topics are not
relevant for you.
You can easily start installing the TIS-Office stand-alone version on a brand
new computer. With existing computers we recommend that you read
Chapter 3 "Preparing for installation". You can then take the necessary
preparatory steps so that you can detect and take into consideration any
problems that could occur.
Information for system administrators: Some descriptions in this guide will
certainly not contain any groundbreaking news. However, you will find useful
tips that will make it easier for you to install the Client/Server version in
particular.
What you should know This documentation assumes that you have gained practical experience of the
operating system you use and its conventions.
If you want to install the Client/Server version, you should be familiar with:
• local networks and
• database management.
Depending on your current operating system settings you must also have
administrator rights or the permission to install programs.
Typographical
conventions
The uniform structure of the sections that describe this application should make
it easier for you to start using the manual.
The left hand column…
• ... …is reserved for what we call marginal notes that emphasise a specific
subject in the form of keywords and should thus make finding information
easier for you. You can also access many of these keywords using the
index.
The right hand column…
• ... …is reserved for the detailed description using text, pictures of program
windows and dialogue boxes and tables.
