Qimage Pro 2001 Released


Today, Qimage Pro, the premier digital image printing application for Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000 and ME, enters the next phase in it's evolution: Qimage Pro 2001. Here are some of the things that make this edition more than just a name and version change!

    Reduced system resource requirements: The amount of system resources used by Qimage Pro has been reduced by nearly a factor of three in QP 2001 when compared to prior versions, allowing you to perform more complex imaging operations without fear of running out of resources.

    "Stickier" filters: Batch filters now "stick" to your images through copy/move/delete commands in QP 2001. Prior versions would leave the filters behind.

    Slide show keys: The delete key can now be used while viewing a windowed slide show to delete the image, and page up/page down can be used to move through the queue.

    EXIF for TIF images: QP 2001 will now display EXIF information recorded in TIF format images.

    Folder locations: Saved filters are now stored in a folder called "Filters" under the main "Qimage" folder (note that associative filters that "belong" to images are still stored in the same folder as the images). In addition, there is now a folder called "Save" under "Qimage" where all settings and sessions are stored.

    More efficient thumbnail cache: QP 2001 now stores cached thumbnails in the JPG format rather than BMP. This reduces hard drive storage requirements for thumbnails by a factor of 8 to 10!

    Mouse wheel: The mouse wheel now functions in the thumbnail area for scrolling.

    Print arranging: Select a single print on a page using the preview and then right click and select the up or down arrow to move that print back or forward in the queue to reorder your prints. You can also use the up/down arrow keys to reorder prints on the preview page after selecting a single print to move.

    New print dialog: When you print your image document, you can now select a page range, number of copies, etc. in the standard Windows fashion.
