Installing CNS Image is very easy. If FileMaker Pro is open, then close it. Next, locate the folder on your hard drive that contains your FileMaker Pro application. For Macintosh, this is usually in the Applications folder; while on Windows, it is usually in the Program Files folder. Next to the FileMaker Pro application, you should see a folder named Extensions. Copy the plug-in file into this folder to install it into FileMaker Pro.
