Installation Directory

The installation procedure creates a directory tree for the LEADTOOLS files, and adds the demonstration programs and online help to your desktop. You specify the root directory during installation.

Please note that due to the large size of the PDF files that contain the LEADTOOLS manuals, these files are no longer included in the setup. Instead, these PDF files can be downloaded from our website at http://support.leadtools.com/SupportPortal/DesktopDefault.aspx?tabindex=3&tabid=27.

The following is a list of the subdirectories in the root directory:

BIN

Executable files for the demonstration programs.

Sample images and databases containing images.

EXAMPLES\DLL

One subdirectory for each example API program.
