| File Support | ||
All code for handling the file formats supported in PMView has been written completely from scratch. Therefore, we are proud to be able to provide full technical support on all of the formats below and enhance support for a specific format when needed (for instance, the TIFF format). If PMView fails to load a file that you need, please contact us so we can try to support your file's format in our next release. New with PMView Pro is the ability to read EXIF file information. EXIF stands for "Exchangeable Image File Format, and is a standard for storing interchange information in image files, especially those using JPEG compression" (exif.org). You can find out more about EXIF support in PMView Pro on the features page. |
