Tip:

To convert from bytes to megabytes (MB), divide by 1024 two times (1024 equals

the number of bytes per kilobyte). Thankfully, all operating systems come with
calculators. For a rough approximation, drop the last 6 digits.

An 8-bit image is 1 byte, a 10 or 16-bit image is 2 bytes, and a float image is 4 bytes.

Installing Shake

When you install Shake, its components are placed in the

Applications

folder of the

hard disk, typically your startup disk.

Important:

Be sure to review “

Shake 4 System Requirements

” on page 4 before

folder

on your hard drive.

Shake Folder Contents

When Shake is installed, three icons appear within the

Shake

folder:

shake

,

shkv

,

and

shkqtv

. The

shake

icon represents the Shake application, and can be placed in the Dock.

The

shkv

icon represents the Shake Viewer application (the Flipbook player for all

platforms). The

shkqtv

icon represents the Shake Disk-Based Viewer application (the

QuickTime Flipbook player). You cannot launch

shkv

or

shkqtv

outside of Shake. When

you create a standard or disk-based Flipbook in Shake, Shake Viewer is automatically
launched and the

shkv

or

shkqtv

icon appears in the Dock.
