LEADTOOLS Image Processor for Windows 10/8.1

Searching for the right effect or filter for your favorite picture is not always a piece of cake. You may have to turn the entire Internet upside down just to find one that’s tailored to your needs.

LEADTOOLS Image Processor for Windows 10/8.1 is an application built on this principle and greets you with a pack of editing techniques you can try out on your pictures.

First of all, we have to stress that the essence of this program does not lie in its looks. It features a series of black and grayish sections as well as some red and green text that pops out even more than you might want it to.

Other than that, the application is untroublesome, and you simply have to add a new image either from your personal resources or taken with the webcam. Resizing it can be done right in the main window and requires no major effort.

At this point, some technical info about the selected picture is displayed on the right side of the main window, detailing the file’s location, size, and format, among others.

Note that the app is supposed to support approximately 100 image formats, of which we tested JPEG, TIFF, TIF, GIF, and BMP during our tests.

As for the app’s core functionality, namely the effects themselves, the categories they are grouped into are the following: “Color,” “Transform,” “Distort,” “Document,” “Effects,” and “Artistic.”

Each of them integrates a multitude of quite pregnant tweaks that you can test out and that completely transform your pictures. In any case, even though you considered a specific design and applied it to your image, the app is able to reset it and let you start all over again.

Once you have settled on a makeover for your images, you just have to save the results to a location of your choice on your computer. An alternative would be sending them by mail or sharing them using other programs.

LEADSTOOLS Image Processor for Windows 10/8.1 is a lightweight app only capable of applying a series of rather obvious effects. It is not a tool designed for those keen on making barely visible adjustments to their images, but even so, it does have its appeal.
