Also provides lossless jpg rotation. I think it’s OS X only. Donationware.
I always enjoy hearing about favorite utilities.
These are the PC graphics utilities I’ve used over the past year or so. Most are free, or donation ware:
Irfanview – Batch conversion and rename –
http://www.irfanview.com/ JpgQ – Estimate compression % of existing JPG –
http://www.mediachance.com/ XnView – Viewer, broser, converter, etc. –
http://www.xnview.com/ Eyedropper – sample colors and readout –
http://www.inetia.com/eyedropper_download_eng.php HoverSnap – screen capture utility – will save JPG –
http://www.hoverdesk.net Exifer – modify EXIF comments –
http://www.exifer.friedemann.info/ Each has at least one unique feature.
I drag and drop folders of images on Irfanview for quick preview.
JpgQ solves the problem of finding the compression setting in a JPG. You should use this number if you can’t go back to the original, and must save as JPG again.
XnView is a good image file browser for older Windows versions.
Eyedropper will show CMYK and RGB numbers for on-screen colors.
HoverSnap will capture all or part of the screen and save as JPG. Or you can FTP the file directly from the utility to a web folder.
Exifer is useful if you need to change EXIF settings from your digital camera files. For instance, you can batch add a comment to all files. Or change the date stamps.
