All you need is an internet browser and an email account...
technical requirements
One of the real benefits of e-pproval is that it is a fully managed web-server application – therefore, the only requirement to use the system is an Internet Browser and a valid e-mail account.

e-pproval will handle almost any file format from PDF to QuickTime movies, and even Microsoft Office documents. You control how these files are handled in your browser application, so the operator is free to decide what to do with the file when they receive it. You can open the image in your browser or download it to your hard drive. More information about these settings is available in our help pages once you are a registered user of the system.

Sometimes you may require certain plug-ins to be installed with your browser to read particular file types. These are readily available for download and usually at no cost to the user.

The Administrator or controller of the system should have at least a 56K modem or higher for uploading jobs into the system. Feel free to contact us for more information about high speed connection to the internet.
