Using Windows Applications with JDS
In this chapter, we discussed using software written for Microsoft Windows platforms on JDS. In the past, people have had difficulty bridging gaps between the Linux and Windows platforms. Several solutions exist, which allow you to run Windows applications on Linux without rebooting.
In Chapter 10, we discuss JDS applications such a Acrobat Reader, Real Player, and the GNU Image Manipulation Program (GIMP). These applications add additional functionality to JDS for working with Portable Document Files (PDFs), audio and video formats, and image editing in native Linux, without emulation.
