ClickBook 2.0 for Macintosh OS 6,7,8,9
Q:  Why are the EPS graphics not printing correctly?
A:
  ClickBook cannot print EPS graphics when a postscript printer is selected. EPS graphics are not sent to the printer in a way that ClickBook can intercept them, so they cannot get captured in the ClickBook spool file. The workaround is to convert the graphic to another format.

Q:  Why can�t I use ClickBook with Adobe PageMaker to print to a LaserWriter 8?
A:  ClickBook will not work with PageMaker if you are printing with a LaserWriter 8 print driver. This is because PageMaker uses non-standard print methods to communicate with the driver. The only workaround is to install and use the LaserWriter 7 driver. You also need to select the ClickBook Always Active option in the ClickBook Setup Control Panel.

Q:  Is ClickBook GX compatible?
A:  No. If you are using a GX application and you have GX print drivers loaded, you must turn off the GX extension in the Mac extensions manager and restart the Mac. You may also need to install a non-GX driver if you have not already done so.

Q:  I'm using Mac OS 9.1 or 9.2 or Classic Mode and getting an error stating the ClickBook control panel is damaged.
A:  Unfortunately, the changes from OS 9.0 to 9.1 have made ClickBooks control panel incompatible. Since this control panel is vital to ClickBooks operation on the Mac OS, ClickBook will not work on OS 9.1.

There is a workaround for this issue. If you install ClickBook on an OS Prior to 9.1 you can copy the Control Panel over to 9.1 and ClickBook will function properly. ClickBook will not work on OS X.

You can use the control panel from 9.0 or earlier and it will work. We have included it here for you to download and copy to your control panel.
