Note that the extension for ImageJ is not available in ZEN lite.

  1. Install ImageJ on your computer. Make sure that you use the latest version (check for online updates after installation).
  2. Download loci_tools.jar and drop it into in the ImageJ/plugins folder.
  3. Note the name of the folder with your preferred alternative. While you can switch freely among them all, it makes sense to stick to one and the same environment, once you have started to add your own programs and macros.
  4. The ImageJ/Fiji folder you will eventually decide on, can either belong to you alone or be shared among other users of the system. It is up to you decide, what you prefer: if you are the only user, nobody will meddle with its contents (images, macros etc), but then, you will need to copy and distribute the contents, if they are of interest to others as well.
  1. You have successfully fulfilled all prerequisites. You can now continue with setting up ImageJ within ZEN software.
