INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

1) Be SURE to download the IC32122.jar file in BINARY format and place it into a temporary directory.
2) Within the temporary directory, unpack the JAR file by running JAR.exe like so:
	
	jar -xvf ic32122.jar

***Note this requires a JDK to be installed.  If WTP is installed on the machine then this should not be a problem.
   If your PATH environmnt variable doesn't contain the JDK's bin directory you will need to fully qualify the
   jar command (e.g. /usr/java_dev2/bin/jar for AIX).

3) For Windows, run instfix.bat as shown below:
	
	instfix c:\Progra~1\IBMTrans  

   where c:\Progra~1\IBMTrans is the install directory for WebSphere Transcoding 
   Publisher. Note that the batch file cannot except directory names with spaces, so be
   sure to use the directory's short name (derived using "dir /X").

4) For Aix, Linux and Solaris, first add execute permissions to the shell script, then
   run instfix.sh as shown below:

        chmod +x instfix.sh
	instfix.sh  /usr/IBMTrans 

   where /usr/IBMTrans is the install directory of WebSphere Transcoding Publisher.
