BeforeOffice Mark

BeforeOffice Mark is a lightweight and easy to use piece of software aimed at graphics designers and other professionals in the field, providing you with the means of analyzing the size and color of an image, being able to also apply text bits on its surface to signal a certain aspect.

The main window allows you to load the images you wish to work with from clipboard, from a locally stored file, your current screen or you can just drag it over BeforeOffice Mark.

When closed, the tool retreats to the system tray, allowing you to easily access it when in need, but otherwise staying out of your way.

When opening a photo using the ‘Clipboard’, ‘Draggit’ or ‘File’ option, BeforeOffice Mark will display them in a full screen working window, which you cannot adjust or minimize, you can only close it. The ‘Screen’ option, however, will turn your entire desktop into a picture.

The application features several components that you can use, namely ‘Distance’, 'Get Color’ and ‘Text’. The first tool lets you measure lengths in pixels, either vertically or horizontally, while the second enables you to obtain the color code in RGB or HEX for a specific pixel in your image.

The ‘Text’ component enables you to indicate a certain element and place a written note, so if you wish to transmit a message to the next person working with that picture, you can signal the precise problem and also explain it. Using ‘Save’, you can export the file, along with the size, color and text notes to PNG, JPG, BMP, GIF or TIF format.

To summarize, BeforeOffice Mark is a useful and efficient program created to help you check pictures in detail and apply your comments directly on their surface, proving quite handy when working in a team, as all members can offer their input.
