Zen Tarot for Palm OS User Guide

Palm OS-related FAQ

When I beam Zen Tarot to another user, why do they get the message "this operation requires a text database" when trying to enter either Browse or Layout mode?

When Zen Tarot is beamed from the Palm OS Launcher, only the program is transferred, not the text or image databases. Use the Beam Zen Tarot menu option from the main title screen to successfully beam the necessary Zen Tarot components to another device.

When I beam a Zen Tarot image database to another user, why can't they view the card images?

Each image database is optimized to work for specific Palm OS-based devices, and the image database for your device may not be compatible with the other device. (In general, lower definition image databases can be viewed on a wider selection of devices.) If necessary, an appropriate Image Pack can be downloaded from our website at http://www.hudren.com/download.

The card images look terrible, are nicer looking ones available for my device?

Probably. The image database included with the program download are basic black and white, low-resolution images that can be viewed on all Palm OS 3.0 and later devices. Most devices in use today are capable of displaying grayscale or color images that show much more detail. These Image Packs are downloadable from our website at http://www.hudren.com/download and contain image databases optimized for your specific type of display.

Why doesn't Zen Tarot find the text or image databases located on a storage card?

Make sure the text and image databases are stored in the default directory for prc/pdb files, which is typically the "/PALM/Launcher" directory, although some manufacturers may place these types of files in a different directory. Zen Tarot queries each card for the specific name of this directory and then only searches in that location for the text and image databases. (The Copy Zen Tarot dialog will transfer these databases from internal memory to the correct directory on the expansion card.)
