FXDeko User’s Guide
Introduction
W
ELCOME
!
This is the User’s Guide for FXDeko, a full-color video character generator from
Pinnacle Systems, Inc. Based on the Windows NT operating system, FXDeko
offers unprecedented performance in a broadcast-quality character generator,
including:
 
The highest picture quality currently
available for television graphics
 
The ease of use and the networking
capabilities of Windows NT
 
The power of a word processor, a page
layout program and a “slide show”
presentation program in a single application
Like a word processor, FXDeko offers a variety of tools for typing text and for
selecting fonts and styles.
Like a page layout program, FXDeko allows total flexibility in positioning text and
full-color graphic elements on the screen.
Like a presentation program, FXDeko plays back a series of graphic pages using
a wide range of real-time effects.
FXDeko is unique among the Deko product line in that it provides up to three
output channels and a powerful Motion Editor, for the most flexibility available in
creating and playing motions.
Graphics and sequences you create on FXDeko can easily be exported for
playback to other Deko products.
We think you’ll be pleased with FXDeko’s quality, power and flexibility. If you
have any suggestions for features to include in future software releases, we
would very much like to hear from you. See How to Contact Pinnacle Systems,
