Description of Functions of "Sharing User-created Character"

Application

Enable organizations or enterprises to install user-created (shared) characters to avoid the problem of "same character, different code". resulting from downloading characters separately from the CNS Master Ideographs Seeker.

Application Method

1. Establish an Administration System：
   To o preserve the consistency of user-created characters and codes (same character, same code), each organization is suggested to assign an Administrator administrator to centrally manage user-created characters in internal-used computers. Whwnever there are new characters needed at client, users should not download or create characters directly, but to apply through the administrator for user-created characters and their codes.
2. Establish Internally Shared Character Set：
   Administrator install [Mater Ideographs Seeker Application Tools] on his/her own computer and use the web site's functions of Code Query, Character Download and [User-created Characters Administration Tools] to establish an internally shared character set. This "Share User-Created Character Set" function is to copy the related files of new or amended "Mutual Character Set" stored in Administrator's computer into folder C:\Cmex\UsrShare
3. "Shared Character Set" available for use：
   Administrator set the folder C:\Cmex\UsrShare in his/her computer as "Shared Resources"
4. Installation of Shared Character Set by Users：
   Intranet users (Client end) can open the administrator's C:\Cmex\UsrSHARE folder from "Internet Neighbor" and execute the UsfSetup.exe installation program. Restart the computer to start using the Shared Character Set. Users of stand-alone computers can access the UsrSHARE folder by requesting the administrator to e-mail the folder as attachment.
5. Install Application Tools at Client End：
   Users at Client end are not required to install the full set of "Master Ideographs Seeker Application Tools". They only need to install frequently used [Code Conversion] and [Print Created Characters] programs. After the installation of "Master Ideographs Seeker", open the folder C:\Cmex\UsrSHARE and execute [Code conversion & Print Created Character Tools exe]; after installation, in [program set], [Master Ideographs Seeker Code Conversion & Print Created Characters Tools] will automatically be generated, which include [Remove Master Ideographs Seeker Code Conversion & Print Created Characters Tools], [Print Created Characters Tools] and [Code Conversion Tools] providing the functions of code conversion, phonetic/Chang-Jei query or printing the user-created character chart.
