FastImageFXModules 7.1 (c) by Helmut Hoffmann 1995-99
==================
+++ New in V7.1: Problems with downscaled loading in ImageFX 3.x solved! +++
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| The fast and flexible loader/saver modules for all ImageFX users |
| * fast loading of more than 20 file formats (incl. e.g. PhotoCD) |
| * support for Datatype loading (now incl. support of 24Bit Datatypes) |
| * downscaled loading support (load big pictures with few memory) |
| * TrueColor animation creation saver for CyberGraphX (incl. Piccasso 96 soft) |
| or EGS users |
| * automatic animation creation and conversion with included ARexx scripts |

Important: The modules CAN ONLY BE ORDERED in conjunction with the
powerful complete package of "PhotoAlbum" and "CyberShow Pro"
(picture management and presentation programs for all Amiga
users with at least OS3.0). Thoose programs should e.g. be
available on Aminet:gfx/board/cybershow##.lha and
Aminet:gfx/misc/photoalbum##.lha.
-> Separate module orders are only possible for persons already
registered for the complete package (in this case: 15DM, 7.67EUR or 10US$ per
module, offer currently valid until 31st December 2000)!
Please note: The demo version loads and saves only in greyscale (but the speed
and format support is the same, so that you can try if they fit your needs)!
Please pay the shareware fee to get color loading/saving...
Please read the extensive documentation in AmigaGuide format for
details about FastIFXModules.
The loader module currently supports the following file formats:
* IFF-ILBM (all standard formats 1 to 8Bit, EHB, HAM6, HAM8, 15Bit, 24Bit)
* PhotoCD (Base format 768x512 or 512x768 (portrait); linear 24Bit colors)
* PPM/PGM/PBM (P1&P4 b&w, P5 grey, P6 color)
* QRT (also known as dump format by PD raytracers as POV-Ray)
* Targa (RLE compr.&uncompr. 1/8/15/16/24/32Bit;incl. interleaved)
* PCX (compr.&uncompr. EGA1-4Bit, VGA 8Bit grey/Colormap and 24Bit)
* MacPaint (b&w compressed 1Bit format; datafork only)
* BMP (uncompr. 24Bit RGB,1Bit,4Bit or 8Bit Colormap; RLE compressed 8Bit,1Bit)
* TIF (packbit-compr.&uncompr. 24Bit,1-8Bit grey/Color Motorola&Intel formats)
* EGS7.x window iconification file format
* DEEP (compr.&uncompr. 24Bit and 32Bit)
* RGB formats (RGB8, RGBN, RGB5)
* ACBM formats (1 to 8Bit, incl. HAM6/HAM8)
* FBM formats (8Bit grey/color and 24Bit)
* IFF-PBM (DPII) format
* Sun raster (1Bit, 8Bit grey/color and 24Bit uncompressed)
* YUV (color 1:1:1, 2:1:1, 4:1:1 and greyscale)
* VLAB raw (color 1:1:1, 2:1:1, 4:1:1 and greyscale)
* HHsYUVSq sequence format (sequential or random access; only first frame)
* HHsXRL formats (1-8Bit ColorMap incl. HAM6/8, 8Bit grey, 24Bit RGB compressed)
* binary-EPS bitmaps (RGB and CMYK; this function is experimental)
* TBCPlus frames&fields
* DataType (incl. first frame of animations with Anim-Datatypes)
New: Since version 6.0 the new 24Bit datatype interface of the V43
picture.datatype is also supported (included with the Picasso 96 software;
should also work with the V43 picture.datatype available for CyberGraphX,
unless it has expired due to an integrated expiration date).
DataTypes are only used to load by this module if you select the module
explicitly by the Buffer/LoadAs function!
The saver module currently supports the following file formats:
* HHsYUVSq animation format (upto size 360x310); create new animations (by
specifying a new file) or append frames to an animation (select old file).
Please note: Image width must be in the range 80 to 360 (even size will
be generated); Image height must be in the range 64 to 310. To append
frames to an animation, the image size in ImageFX must match the frame
size of the file you want to append to. Otherwise (or if you specify
not a HHsYUVSq anim file) the error "Unrecognized file format" occurs.
* QRT (also known as dump format by PD raytracers as POV-Ray)
* Targa (RLE compr.&uncompr. 24Bit, 8Bit grey, 8Bit color map, 1Bit color map)
* HHsXRL formats (1-8Bit ColorMap incl. HAM6/8, 8Bit grey, 24Bit RGB compressed)
with optional lossy reduction for TrueColor or greyscale pictures; this new
file format series has surprisingly good (lossless) compression of raytraced
24Bit pictures or undithered color mapped pictures with 2 to 256 colors;
also very usable with ClipArt...; this format can be saved in color
even in the demo version (to check the good compression), but loading
will be in greyscales in the demo as well.
See documentation for details about animation creation, downscaled
loading etc.
