* To be more clear and with version information.


When I access TypeAlign, I get the error message "TypeAlign can't run until
you have rebooted with the TypeAlign Startup in your System Folder". Is
there a special way to install this program under System 7?


Installing Adobe TypeAlign under System 7 is similar to installing it
under previous versions of the Macintosh operating system.  Here are the
steps:

1) Drag the TypeAlign, TypeAlign Startup, and TypeAlign Help icons from
  the master floppy disk to your System Folder.  

2) When "Some of these items need to be stored in special places...
  Put them where they belong?" dialog appears, click OK.  The system will
  place TypeAlign in the Apple Menu Items Folder, TypeAlign Help in the
  System Folder, and the TypeAlign Startup in the Extensions Folder.

3) In order for TypeAlign to run properly, move the TypeAlign Startup
  icon from the Extensions Folder to the root level of the System Folder.

Note that at least TypeAlign version 1.0.5 is available. Contact Adobe for
the most recent version information.
