As a .NET and COM toolkit, it delivers image viewing, editing, clean up, thumbnail image support, auto red eye removal, alpha channel support, auto color level, auto contrast, image filtering, EXIF tag editing, color matching, color space conversion, photo collage layout and printing, color image deskew, dust/scratch removal, file format conversion, compression, and more. ImagXpress Photo also contains sophisticated TWAIN scanning support, annotation capabilities, and advanced printing capabilities beyond Internet Explorer.
ImagXpress Document is ideal for powerful document imaging and forms processing application development. As a .NET and COM toolkit, it delivers single and multi-page TIFF support, embedded-image PDF support, TIFF tag handling, EXIF tag handling, file conversion, and support for 1 to 24-bit images with transparency. Build applications displaying documents and thumbnail images with fine details enhanced. ImagXpress Document provides sophisticated TWAIN scanning support, image editing and clean up (including image binarization, thresholding, anti-aliasing, deskew, despeckle, line removal, hole punch removal, blank page detection, scale to gray, save as grayscale, crop, rotate, scale, zoom), annotation/redaction capabilities, and advanced printing capabilities beyond Internet Explorer.
ImagXpress View is ideal for applications requiring only image viewing and printing features, when saving images is not required. ImagXpress View delivers Pegasus Imaging's advanced image viewing and printing technology as .NET and COM controls for integration within visual development environments. Designed to serve "view only" imaging requirements, developers can rapidly build applications to view and print images including annotations. Users may view multi-page TIFF and embedded-image PDFs. ImagXpress View includes all the viewing features of ImagXpress Document. In addition, this toolkit includes a thumbnail image control, annotation display, and advanced printing capabilities beyond Internet Explorer.
ImagXpress Standard is ideal for color image processing and offers a solid set of basic image viewing, printing and TWAIN scanning features. ImagXpress Standard delivers Pegasus Imaging's basic color imaging technology as .NET and COM controls for integration within visual development environments. Developers can build applications with image viewing, editing, printing, TWAIN scanning, file format conversion, and more.
