Changes from Fiery ImageViewer 3.0 to Fiery ImageViewer 4.0

Description of changes between Fiery ImageViewer 3.0 and Fiery ImageViewer 4.0.

  1. Fiery ImageViewer 4.0 is based on OpenGL rendering architecture. For this reason, Fiery ImageViewer 4.0 requires a video card/GPU that supports OpenGL version 3.2 and above. If this requirement is not met on macOS, then Fiery ImageViewer 3.0 is started. The OpenGL version can be checked using third party software, such as OpenGL extension viewer.
  2. On a Windows computer that does not have a video card, or has a video card or GPU that does not support OpenGL version 3.2 and above, Fiery ImageViewer 4.0 will start in software rendering mode.
    Note: You may experience slow performance when you use Fiery ImageViewer in software rendering mode. However, you can use all the features of Fiery ImageViewer 4.0.
  3. When you log on to a Windows client computer using Remote Desktop Connection, Fiery ImageViewer 4.0 starts in software rendering mode.
