PMView Pro description
A robust and configurable image viewing, conversion, and editing tool for bitmapped graphics

PMView is a robust and configurable image viewing, conversion, and editing tool for bitmapped graphics. It loads your images blazingly fast, without compromising quality or robustness. PMView supports saving and loading of more than 40 different file formats, including JPEG, GIF, PNG, TIFF, and PhotoCD.

PMView Pro is a software that views, converts and edits bitmap images.

PMView offers broader and faster support for these file formats than many other programs do, since we wrote all of PMView's code for format handling ourselves. PMView also incorporates various image recovery techniques. If the image is bad, PMView will try to make the best of the situation and show the image if only possible. It does not give up easily.

PMView is intelligent. It tries to figure out what you want instead of popping up meaningless error messages. It tries to provide good default settings for most actions. PMView is also very configurable.

There are hundreds of different options that make it possible for you to configure PMView to your liking. For instance, PMView has fully configurable shortcut keys.

PMView is much more than a viewer. It has functions for doing screen captures including the unique feature to capture parts of a window that are outside the desktop. The print function in PMView is a true WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) implementation that visually lets you adjust margins and see the printed output.

PMView allows for printing an image using multiple sheets of paper, enabling the user to print out a huge poster using standard letter sized paper and gluing the parts together. Naturally, PMView also has a TWAIN-interface for scanning and advanced batch and scripting functions that lets you automate conversion of a large number of files in the background.

PMView has a unique automatic thumbnailing facility that will create thumbnails for your images. The thumbnails in the file open window make it possible for you to browse through hundreds of images in minutes. You'll never again have to load a bunch of images just because you forgot the name of the one you're looking for.

PMView lets you convert files from one file format to another with the click of a mouse button. Just right-click with your mouse on the file you want to convert and select what format to convert to. PMView will do the conversion in a background task and lets you continue working.

PMView also has an easy-to-use slideshow feature that lets you create slideshows just by dragging and dropping the images you want. The slideshow controller gives you an easy way to control your slideshow while it's running.

PMView is written in C++ and makes heavy use of C++ specific features like classes, templates and exception handling. Throughout this product, we have tried our hardest to provide you with the best possible performance.

Our memory and file management routines will provide you with blazing speed and the best use of your hardware. PMView does not lay its foundation on third party code or libraries that would limit our possibilities to provide a robust and optimized solution.

PMView is dynamically multithreaded, meaning that threads will be created and destroyed as needed. There will never be threads spinning in the background doing nothing. We have also invented a Priority Boost system that will let you use idle time priority without having to worry about locking up PMView or your system. PMView works well on single CPU systems, but also includes advanced SMP features for multi-processor systems.

Here are some key features of "PMView Pro":

Access EXIF Image Information
· With the new PMView Pro, you can get instant access to all of the EXIF (Exchangable Image Format) file information stored in your digital images. Most of the top digital camera manufacturers save this information to your images, adding a wealth of information to your images.

Convert Dialog
· Quick access to powerful tools! With the new Convert option in both the main File menu as well as the File Open Window's popup menus, you can easily select one or more images and convert them to a different format without ever opening those images.

QuickScript Utility
· Find yourself making the same changes over and over? Another new addition to the File Open Container's popup dialog is the QuickScript option.
· You can setup your own QuickScripts to perform just about any task on any number of images.

Confirm File Replace Dialog
· With the new convert options and 'Copy/Move To...' options, a new Confirm File Replace dialog alerts you before you overwrite any previously saved images, even offering thumbnails of the two images. Don't worry if the thumbnails look a little blurry, the entire dialog is resizable so you can maximize to full screen for a side by side comparison of the two images.
