KompoZer User Guide 17 December 2007 Based on version 0.7.10 44
Appendix 4 Installing KompoZer and extensions
A4.1 Installing KompoZer
The program may be downloaded from KompoZer's
web site http://kompozer.sourceforge.net/.
The site does not offer an installer but J C Steele
has provided one for KompoZer 0.7.10. It is available
from
http://ww2.coastal.edu/jcsteele/kompozer/
With an installer available:
1 Download the Windows full installer from the
downloads page
2 Save the program wherever you wish. Possibly
in My Documents\Downloads
3 Double click the file to start the installation
process
4 Answer the prompts. You will probably want to
install to C:\Program Files\KompoZer
If no installer is available:
1 Download the Win32 tarball
2 Save the program wherever you wish. Possibly
in My Documents\Downloads. The file will have
the extension 'zip'
3 Decide on the folder in which you wish to install
the files - probably C:\Program Files\KompoZer
4 Double click the 'zip' file and extract to the
required location
5 In the same location find the file `kompozer.exe'
6 Create a shortcut to this and place it either on
the desktop or the taskbar
The program may now be run by clicking the
shortcut. The first time it is run it will create a 'profile'.
(See next section.)
Note With earlier versions of KompoZer you were
advised not to run Nvu and KompoZer simultaneously.
This no longer applies.
A4.2 Reinstalling/updating
It is not expected that Nvu will be updated after
version 1.0 but you may need to upgrade from an
earlier version or possibly to repair a broken installa-
tion.
Nvu stores a number of settings in files located in
the 'Profiles' folder. KompoZer does the same thing
and maintains a separate, independent profiles folder.
The profile includes:
Some default settings
Details of the sites which you have set up in
'Site Manager'
Publishing Site Settings
Details of any add-ons installed
Your custom spelling dictionary.
The Nvu team recommend that this folder be delet-
ed prior to installing a new version of Nvu. This means
that these settings will be lost and have to be re-
entered following the new installation. It is advisable
to follow this recommendation.
The default profiles folder is located at
%AppData%\Nvu (i.e. Something like c:\Documents
and Settings\<login settings>\Application Data\Nvu).
(Similarly for KompoZer.)
The procedure for updating is therefore (applicable
to Nvu only)
1. Download the latest version of the program
2. Make sure that you have a record of your
Publishing site settings
3. De-install the program in the usual way e.g.
From Start > Settings > Control panel > Add or remove
Programs.
4. Delete the profiles folder.
5. Install the new version of Nvu
6. Set up Site Manager and Publishing Settings
A4.3 Installing extensions
There are a small number of extensions available
for KompoZer including alternative spelling dictionar-
ies.
Extensions are installed differently from normal
programs. the procedure is as follows:
Locate the web page from which the extension
may be downloaded
Download and save save the extension on your
hard drive using the link 'Save link target as...'.
Launch KompoZer.
Tools > Extensions > Install.
Browse to the folder where the extension file is
located and select the file.
In the window that opens click 'Install now'.
Close and relaunch KompoZer.
If you have extensions installed you may some-
times wish to run KompoZer without the extension.
For this you need to have one profile which has the
extension installed and one without. Managing profiles
explains how to achieve this.
A4.4 Managing profiles
Set up profiles windowIn order to manage profiles
you must start KompoZer with profiles enabled.
To enable profiles:
