| OpenOffice.org | SkyVault uses OpenOffice for transforming documents from one format to another, for example, a text file to a PDF file. If you do not install OpenOffice, you will not have access to the transformation functionality. Use the latest (stable) version of OpenOffice.org. |
| ImageMagick | SkyVault uses ImageMagick to manipulate images for previewing. |
| Flash Player | SkyVault Share requires Flash Player Version 10.x to upload multiple files and view Flash previews. If you do not install Flash, you see the upload screen for single files. Use the latest (stable) version of Flash Player for your platform. |
