Compression & File Formats
- See our web page showing ImagXpress File Format Support in Each Edition
- Interact with file formats on disk, in memory and URLs
- Support for 1, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32-bit images
- Support for 2 to 16-bit grayscale images, including window leveling
- Support beyond 8-bit, grayscale lossy JPEG
- Unicode (double-byte) characters are supported in text, file, and in thumbnail descriptors
- Convert to PDF or Scan to PDF (containing bitonal, grayscale, and color image data such as JPEG, JPEG 2000 or JBIG2). Users may add on PDF Xpress for enhanced PDF support.
- Support for TIFF format including Group 3,Group 4, JPEG, JPEG Type 7, CCITT RLE, LZW, Pack Bits, and Deflate compressions. Additionally support is available for IPTC metadata, TIFF tag editing, compacting of multiple page files, Wang TIFF annotation compatibility, 9 to 16-bit grayscale, and intrinsic orientation (the file itself contains a rotation angle that can be interpreted during display).
- Support vendor-specific Camera RAW - automatic detection and decompression of digital RAW photos from Canon, Fuji, Kodak, Minolta, Nikon, Olympus, and more.
- Password protect images using .pic, an Accusoft Pegasus format that allows greater compression and password capability. These files require Accusoft Pegasus products to view and manipulate them.
