The SwiftView software, used for viewing PCL files – a format commonly used for governmental documents – is available on all public Maxwell computers. While the software will work with our computers, there are some things that SwiftView users should be aware of:

• The Swift view client will work as a standalone viewer and as a plug-in for Firefox, but it will not work as a plug-in for IE due to security settings.
  
• We recommend right clicking on the file you would like to view using SwiftView and selecting “Save as” or “Save link as”. When prompted for a location to save the file, please save it to your H drive for safe keeping. Do not save to your C drive! Once saved, you can view the file using the SwitView standalone viewer.
