New Mac tech: the Mac Thumbnailer uses an Extension — Apple’s technology for file previews. If previews don’t appear, check System Preferences to ensure the extension is added and enabled. Note: Apple’s macOS decision means .EXP files cannot be shown as thumbnails; all other platforms and formats are unaffected.

About this page
Updates: every Embrilliance program uses the same download for an update or a new purchase — whichever you need, the links above are the right ones.
.zip vs .exe: browsers accept .zip files more readily than .exe on Windows; if your browser allows the .exe, it saves you a step.
Printing manuals is allowed — here is a printing release if you need one.
