Where is Product Documentation

sdilling2_085db4e1ed

I am in the process of switching from Poser to Daz. A painful but rewarding pursuit. I am sure I will be bending this forum in all kinds of directions for the next few weeks as I become accustomed to the software.

My first question is; where can I find product readmes and Documentation? I let IM install all my content (a considerable amount), but I am not finding any product documentation. 

For example, I purchased Ultimate Eyebrows for G8. Where are the docs (and I am assuming that it has not become standard for vendors to NOT make documentation for their content)?

Forgive me while I act like a noob for a few weeks.

Product readmes are hosted on Daz site, in the wiki.

To access the readme for a specifuc product you use the following url with the product's sku: http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/read_me/index/<sku>/start

IIRC there's also a button near the product name to access the readme in DIM.

Click the (universal) icon for "information" to the right of the label of any package listed in one of Install Manager's views to be taken to that product's ReadMe page on the Documentation Center

I am also told

Read the blue note on this (http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/software/install_manager/referenceguide/interface/ready_to_install_page/start) page for a description of the mechanism that allows for the use of local documentation (if it exists).

Thats's the most annoying thing with DAZ, there's no readme's - you have to go online to find documentation, and then cut and paste from those web pages to create your own readme's. A time consuming project to say the least!

Well you can download them as pdf files and put them somewhere you can find them as and when - I do that because my DAZ Studio PC has no internet connection..

If you look at the blue note, http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/software/install_manager/referenceguide/interface/ready_to_install_page/start , it tells you how to name the PDF so that, when placed in the DIM Downloads folder, it will open in response to clicking the i icon.
