3. If you're having problems, please see the guide below:


QUESTION 1: I'm getting The procedure entry point libintl_snprintf could not be located in the dynamic link library intl.dll. when I try to run PHOTOEDITORX or use plug-ins. How do I fix it?

Some broken application placed a file named intl.dll to your Windows or Windows\System32 directory. Rename it, and PHOTOEDITORX will work fine.

QUESTION 2:  What do I need to do to get Python scripts to work?

You have to install Python (as of PHOTOEDITORX 2.6.4, both Python 2.5 and 2.6 are supported), PyCairo, PyGObject and PyGTK. If you just intend to use Python scripts from within PHOTOEDITORX, there is no need to install GTK+ separately.

If you installed PHOTOEDITORX before installing Python, PyCairo, PyGObject and PyGTK, run the PHOTOEDITORX installer again to install the PHOTOEDITORX Python components.

QUESTION 3: PHOTOEDITORX displays the message Pango-ERROR **: file shape.c line 75 > (pango_shape): assertion failed: (glyphs->num_glyphs > 0) and when I click OK, it crashes. What should I do?

You have two options:

 * Go to Start?Settings?Control Panel?Display properties?Apperance tab(?Advanced if you're on Windows XP/2003), and set all fonts to Tahoma (or any other TrueType font).
 * Uninstall GTK+ then re-install it without the GTK-Wimp component.

QUESTION 4: PHOTOEDITORX appears to hang while loading fonts. What's going on?

If it's the first time you've run PHOTOEDITORX, it may be indexing your fonts. This may take a few minutes to complete.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

QUESTION 5:  When I run PHOTOEDITORX, a console window (MS-DOS box) opens and displays some messages. If I close this window, PHOTOEDITORX closes, too. What should I do?

Minimize the window and ignore it, as most of the warnings it displays are harmless, and PHOTOEDITORX will still work.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

QUESTION 6: I'm getting cryptic error messages about missing entries in DLL files when I try to run PHOTOEDITORX. What's causing this? PHOTOEDITORX loads fine when I run it by clicking the icon, but crashes if I double-click a file associated with it. What is causing this?

This is usually caused by broken programs installing libraries to Windows\System32 directory. Most likely there's a bad version of intl.dll, libxml2.dll, xmlparse.dll or xmltok.dll in there. Rename or remove it, and PHOTOEDITORX should load fine.

QUESTION 7: My antivirus claims that your installers are infected. Why?
Because its definitions are broken. Inform the vendor about the problem and wait a few days until updated definitions are out.
