• More than 65 illustrations carvings of eminent Lamas and various sacred objects ready to import into any document using your favorite word processor.

• A new collection of over 250 exotic monastic seals found on the woodblock prints in the collections of St. Petersburg.

• Included in the 50,000 entries of the catalogs to the St. Petersburg collections is information about every one of an estimated 20,000 carved illustrations found in the books already cataloged; it’s exciting to realize that you can find them there and request directly from the Russian libraries a photocopy of a line drawing for just about any important classical Indian or Tibetan thinker, even when an ACIP digital version is not yet available.

Given that there are all these exciting, newly available materials on the latest ACIP release, how are you going to go about using it? How do you view, search, or print the wonderful resources that are on the CD-ROM? For these purposes, ACIP is proud to provide a powerful new user interface, AsiaView version 2.0, included free with this release. Detailed information on how to use AsiaView begins on page 41 of this User Manual.
