Version 2 of the Universal Filter for PageStream
The 'universal' filter allows loading of many additional graphic formats
within the PageStream v3.x/v4.x DTP program. Furthermore the loading of already
supported graphic formats was considerably accelerated in parts.
Version 2 of the filter is finally released for free on
http://www.uni.coloraid.de. Similar to
ICS the filter is now using the IRW library for
image loading.
The innovations in version 2 are:
- Now supports <8Bit and CMYK modes in PageStream
- Faster
- Almost no memory usage when no image is loaded
- Loading of 16 bit (converted to 8 bit) and CMYK data is now possible
- Improved PGM/PBM/PPM/JPEG/BMP/TIFF routines
- Considerably improved error handling thanks to IRW
- Locale support
- Compiled for different cpus
- MANY small improvements
The supported formats for now are:
BMP, DataTypes, DCX, IFF ILBM, JPEG, PCX, GIF, PGM/PBM/PPM,
PNG, Targa, TIFF
