Tutorials

Version 10
For version 10, a full set of printed tutorials is provided in the User's Guide PDF, which will be found in the \MPO\DOCS directory. During installation, the user has the option of installing all the images referenced in the User's Guide.

In addition, the MPO Canopus/PhotoRed Manual PDF is also found in the same directory. This gives extensive detailed information about both programs.


Version 12
For version 12, no printed (PDF) documention is planned, at least for the initial releases. Instead, an extensive set of videos will be posted on the MPO Software YouTube channel. If you subscribe, you can be notified whenever a new or updated tutorial is available.

Tutorial PowerPoint PDF
Most of the tutorials are based on PowerPoint slides. Whenever possible, the slides will be saved as a PDF with two slides per page. Even though v12 has not been released, you can get an idea of what awaits.
