Getting Resources

It is possible to upgrade your Quanta Plus without getting a new version, by getting new resources like DTEP packages, toolbars with actions, templates, scripts and documentation. One possibility is that you got the resources in email or have downloaded from a web server, in which cases you usually need to manually install them. In lucky case you also got an install script when you have downloaded the resources. But Quanta Plus has a dedicated server holding resources that were either not included in the main distribution because of their sizes or infrequent usage, or they were contributed later by users, and these resources are automatically installed. Do download such resources use the various Download menu entries. You can find them at DTD->Download DTD Package (DTEP), Toolbars->Download Toolbar, in the context menu of an empty area or toplevel item in the Templates, Scripts and Documentation trees.

After a resource was downloaded, but before it is installed, Quanta Plus verifies if the resource is valid, by checking the integrity and the signature. In case of problems it warns you and you can decide if you want to continue or not. Please read the warning dialogs carefully. In the case when the integrity is correct and the resource is correctly signed, you will still get an information dialog, so you can see who created the resource.

Caution

Be sure that you install resources, especially toolbars and scripts, only from trusted sources!
