SViewIV als ImageFX-Loader
All owners of a keyfile for SViewIV can now use SViewIV as loader module for ImageFX V2.6+ due to
the SuperView IFX loader module. By the use of the optional PPC module, the SuperView library, download time
can be reduced notedly. SViewIV supports more than 30 graphics formats.
Anyone who owns a valid keyfile for SViewIV now also can utilize the
new "SUPERVIEW" IFX loader module with ImageFX 2.6 and above - it's
distributed as part of the main program, but add-on wise.
Additional ultra-speed can be achieved through SuperView-Library's
optional PPC modules - which are working completely transparently.
Additional information on SViewIV/PPC can be found under
http://www.ar-kleinert.de - including download links to
Aminet and to the RegNet creditcard-based online registration site.
If you can't wait, here's some more information.
SViewIV comes with the following SVObject loaders for images:
- IFF-ACBM - Windows,OS/2 BMP - PNM (PBM,PGM,PPM)
- IFF-ILBM - JPEG (JFIF v6) - IMG (GEM Graphics)
- IFF-DEEP - PhotoCD - WPG (WP Bitmaps)
- IFF-FAXX - TIFF - MacPaint MAC
- IFF-PBM - PCX - EPS (Header/PS)
- IFF-RGB8 - Atari Degas - C64 (Koala, Doodle)
- IFF-RGBN - Spectrum ZX - TIM
- IFF-RGFX - XWD - FBM
- IFF-YUVN - Windows Icon - CDR-Previews
- QRT/POV Raytrace - Mac PICT-2 - SGI

following file formats seamlessly can be embedded:
