Softpedia Editor's Review for WinSoftMagic Photo Editor
|
Special Photo Editor that preserves the original picture quality
Written by Elena Opris on May 14th, 2012
WinSoftMagic Photo Editor is an application that you can use to edit your pictures and apply several effects to them.
The interface of the program is plain and easy to navigate through. Pictures can be imported via the file browser only, since the "drag and drop" method is not supported. Batch processing is possible.
So, you can resize, rotate and crop images, remove the red eye effect, zoom in and out, add watermarks, as well as edit text information and the active profile.
But you can also use toggle between image compression and correction, as well as adjust the brightness, contrast, saturation, RGB, color temperature and sharpness levels.
In addition, you can enable WinSoftMagic Photo Editor to keep the EXIF information, metadata and text comments of the pictures, change the image resolution, set intervals for integrity marks (they allow the decompression to be resumed if the picture will be damaged), and more.
The graphic editing tool runs on a low-to-moderate amount of system resources, contains a comprehensive help file with snapshots for users of all levels, has a very good response time and didn't freeze, crash or pop up errors during our tests.
Unfortunately, WinSoftMagic Photo Editor doesn't support the undo and redo functions, which is a major downside. Other than that, we strongly recommend this software to all users.

WinSoftMagic Photo Editor description
|
Here are some key features of "WinSoftMagic Photo Editor":
· Interactivity - the process of compression becomes visual, effectively trading image quality with file size by adjusting the compressor's settings. It also offers a preview of the resulting image immediately in the result image preview window
· Multi-document interface allows you to work with many images at the same time, enabling you to view and compare different compression parameters applied to either the same or different images
· Advanced JPEG compression engine, specially optimized for higher image quality, considerably reduces the file size of images and provides the most comprehensive set of options to tune the compression level
· Profiles considerably improve processing of multiple images with similar characteristics. A profile contains the most important compression parameters along with resizing information. You can create, save, edit and apply named profiles
· Photo hosting integration allows you to save photos in the Web. Our photo hosting service allows you to upload and store your photos on our web server. Use this feature to share your photos online - email links, insert photos in forums, use for auctions, etc.
· Command-line processing ability lets you to automate base image processing tasks
· Graphic Detail Quality Equalizer is a unique feature that gives you significant flexibility in adjusting the compressed image quality. Its 5 bands are intended to tune the compression level applied to the image details with different sizes (ranging from large to small)
· Compression-oriented image prefiltering helps to achieve better compression/optimization results and improve the visual appearance of an image. You can choose one of five filters and change the level and radius (depth) of applying the active filter
· Separate compression sliders for Luma(intensity) and Chroma(color) channels allow you to gain better compression results, eliminate color artefacts, and significantly improve the compressed image quality
· Hold the defined compression ratio is a unique feature for graphic software that allows you to create images whose file size is limited by the defined compression ratio (like the "bit rate" parameter for audio files), and does not depend on their content
· Selective image compression - some areas of the image can be compressed more or less than others. This useful feature allows you to save high quality for the most important parts of the image (faces,etc.), and lower for the rest, achieving excellent compression results
· Progressive JPEG images support; images in this format being published on the Web will be incrementally displayed (gradually improving their quality) during loading from the Internet or other communications
· Additional options for adjusting precision of compression allow you to get the best result depending on the priority: small file size or high image quality (which means large file size)
· Ability to acquire images from TWAIN compliant devices - such as scanners or digital cameras
· Image Resizing(Resampling) by using one of three implemented high-quality interpolation methods
· Viewing/Editing the invisible text (signature, copyright notice, comments, etc.) embedded in your JPEG file
· Possibility to crop unnecessary portions of the image
· Easy-to-use and highly customizable user interface
Limitations:
· Save is disabled
