General Information
The PC Offices is a collection of HTML files which allow the user to access the 1928 Book of Common Prayer Daily Offices of Morning Prayer and Evening Prayer, as well as the Occasional Offices of The Litany, The Penitential Office, Family Prayer, Visitation of the Sick, and The Psalter. The Hourly Offices (Matins, Prime, Terce, Sext, None, and Compline) based on various Anglican resources are also included.

The files are organized in a manner that allows the propers for a given day and office to be seen in parallel with the office. There is no viewer program or executable file used to display the PC Offices; instead, the user's default browser program is used.

The daily propers are normally accessed through a one-year day-by-day calendar. The files for the calendar must be changed when a new year begins. Utility programs are included to handle this change, and future calendar updates files will be available for download by registered users. Resource pages are also included with the PC Offices which link directly to the propers for each Calendar day of the liturgical year and all Holy Days to allow "year-independent" access to the propers.

 
Demonstration
A demonstration version of the PC Offices can be accessed below to provide a sample of the software operation. The demo version is identical to the original release of the actual software, but has been abridged; only a portion of the calendar year will link to propers, and some other features are not included.

Answers to Some Questions
Please click the following link: Questions???


 
Operating System / Software Requirements
Microsoft Windows 98 or newer, or Mac OS 9.x or newer.

The PC Offices have been tested with Internet Explorer 5.x/6.x and Netscape 7.x Browsers, as well as Avant Browser and Apple Safari. Other browsers should also work, since there are no browser-specific features included in the source files. However, the browser must support the use of frames (such as Internet Explorer version 4.0 and newer, or Netscape version 3.0 and newer).

Windows Note: Windows 95 will run the PC offices, but is not recommended due to possible problems with the version of Internet Explorer included.


 
Hardware Requirements
The PC Offices is best viewed with a screen resolution of 1024x768; the minimum resolution is 800x600. High Color mode is preferred; 256 Color mode will also work acceptably.

Any computer system capable of running Windows 98 or newer, or Mac OS 9.x (OS X [Jaguar & up] is preferred) or newer is satisfactory for the PC Offices. At least 15MB of free space on the hard drive is needed for installation.


Mac Note: Older versions of Mac's should work, but the installer program only supports back to OS 8.1, so the PC Offices will not install on systems running old versions of OS.
