<P STYLE="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;"><FONT FACE="MS Sans Serif" SIZE="2">In some cases you may want to launch an external viewer to handle certain types of files stored in ShrinkIt archives or disk images.&nbsp; For example, CiderPress does not have a built-in GIF or JPEG viewer.&nbsp; If you put "gif; jpg; jpeg" in this field, then any files that end with those extensions will be opened using the default viewer (the program that gets run if you double-click on the file in Windows).</FONT></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;"><FONT FACE="MS Sans Serif" SIZE="2">The file extensions are separated by semicolons, and should not include a leading dot ('.').&nbsp; You will need to configure the default "open" handler in Windows for the specified file extensions yourself.&nbsp; This can usually be done by opening a folder from My Computer, selecting "Folder Options" from the "Tools" menu, clicking on the "File Types" tab, and then editing the entry for the file type in question.</FONT></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;"><FONT FACE="MS Sans Serif" SIZE="2">When you double-click a file with a matching extension, it is extracted to a temporary file and handed to the external viewer.&nbsp; When you exit CiderPress, all of the temporary files created in this manner are deleted.&nbsp; If an external viewer still has the file open, it may not be possible for CiderPress to remove it.&nbsp; The file will eventually be removed by the Windows disk cleanup feature.</FONT></P>
