Stardust Image Encoder 2003 facilitates the conversion of images into smaller, high-quality formats with live preview, superior compression technology, effortless resizing, batch and command-line processing.
One of the standout features is the real-time compression preview, which allows you to see the effects of compression before you commit to a decision. This is especially useful for those who need to maintain the quality of their images, while still reducing the size. Image Encoder 2003 also offers batch processing for those who need to convert multiple images quickly and easily.
Another great aspect of Image Encoder 2003 is its support for state-of-the-art compression formats, such as JPEG-2000. This ensures that your compressed images are of the highest quality possible. The software also reads many image file formats, and writes to popular compressed formats, making it incredibly versatile.
Image Encoder 2003 is also a perfect companion to prepare images for use in Stardust™ Screen Saver Toolkit™ 2003. It offers an optimized preview of every transformation, which allows you to fine-tune the size and format settings for your images. You can save an optimized copy at any stage and your original image file is displayed at the same size as the optimized image, but is never actually modified.
For image formats with less than 24-bit color, you can load and save color tables. The Batch Wizard allows you to encode multiple image files in a single operation, while the Command-Line Utility lets you encode one or more images from a command prompt, allowing you to incorporate image conversion into your batch files and scripts.
In terms of compatibility, Image Encoder is incredibly versatile. It reads 16 different file formats (BMP, JPG, J2K, JP2, JPC, PNG, GIF, PCX, PBM, PGM, PNM, PPM, PGX, RAS, TGA, TIF) and writes any of 4 different compressed file formats (JPG, J2K, PNG, GIF). Overall, Stardust™ Image Encoder™ 2003 is a highly recommended software suite for those looking for powerful image compression tools.
