If you have already installed PatXML and wish to update it with a more recent version of the software, you will need to uninstall the older version first. (For more information see Uninstalling PatXML (p 17).) Installation over the existing software may cause incorrect behaviour of the uninstall process. Moreover, you will not be able to use the authoring functionality if you have two copies of the software installed in separate directories.

Using the software will not interfere with normal use of the MS Word® application, if both are running simultaneously. PatXML supports English, French and German versions of MS Word® and associated operating systems.

Note When updating your PatXML version you do not have to uninstall PatXML manually. The Installation Wizard will automatically uninstall the older version. To learn how to install a new version see Standalone installation (p 17).
