CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying IMPDF2.INI to your appropriate Windows system directory. SmartDraw LLC typically does not release SmartDraw INI files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer. The installer's task is to ensure that all correct verifications have been made before installing and placing IMPDF2.INI and all other INI files for SmartDraw. An incorrectly installed INI file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
