General Description [ back to top ]
| 32-bit 95/NT support, multi-threaded design for spooling to thermal printer in the background. |
| Drag and Drop support. Open multiple image files by dragging and dropping onto main window. |
| Supports almost ANY standard graphics file format. |
| Rotates image 90, 180, 270 degrees or user specified angle |
| Full clipboard support. Copy and paste from/to other image processing applications. |
| Full zoom capability on any bitmap. |
| Screen Capture function allows grabbing any windows screen shot as an image for thermal printing |
| Automatic conversion to 8-bit gray-scale no matter what the resolution of the original source file. |
| Allows queueing of multiple files simultaneously. |
| Network printing support allows one thermal printer to be shared by workgroup using ThermalWiz clients. |
| Automatic pixel value tracking as mouse is moved across image. |
Image Processing Functions [ back to top ]
| Function | Description |
| Flip | Flips image top to bottom |
| Reverse | Flips image left to right |
| Rotate | Rotates image 90, 180, 270 degrees or user specified angle |
| Shear | Shears the image by user specified angle. (Moves the corners of a bitmap in the fashion of a parallelogram) |
| Resize | Resizes the image to user defined size with option for preserving the aspect ratio of the image. |
| Resample | Resizes the image, using interpolation and averaging to produce a higher-quality image than is achieved resizing function above. |
| Effects | Posterize, Mosaic, Average, Median, Sharpen, Noise, Emboss and Underlay. |
| Spatial Filters | Gradiant, Laplacian, Sobel, Prewitt, Shift and Difference, Line Segment. |
Image Color Functions [ back to top ]
| Function | Description |
| Invert | Inverts the colors in the image, making it like a photographic negative. |
| Brightness | Changes the intensity (brightness) of the image in an image. |
| Contrast | Increases or decreases the contrast of the image in an image. |
| Histogram Equalize | Linearizes the number of pixels per gray level in a bitmap. This can be used to bring out the detail in dark areas of an image. |
| Histogram Contrast | Increases or decreases the contrast of the image in a bitmap, using a histogram to determine the median brightness. |
| Stretch Intensity | Increases the contrast in an image by centering, maximizing, and proportioning the range of intensity values. |
| Gamma Correct | Adjusts the intensity of colors in a bitmap by changing the gamma constant that is used to map the intensity values. |
| Intensity Detect | Filters the specified bitmap to detect colors in a specified intensity range. |
Ocean Data Thermal Printers Supported by ThermalWiz V1.0 [ back to top ]
Graphics File Formats Supported by ThermalWiz V1.09 [ back to top ]
Windows Bitmap (BMP). This is a file format created
by Microsoft.
Some BMP images are compressed with an RLE-type compression.
OS/2 Bitmap (OS/2 BMP). These are files created on
an OS/2 operating system.
ThermalWiz supports both 1.x and 2.x formats.
Windows Icon (ICO). This is a multipage file format
for storing one or more Windows icons.
You can read multipage files with the following bits per pixel: 1, 4, 8.
Windows Cursor (CUR). This is a file format for storing Windows cursors (mouse pointers).
PCX. This is a file format created by ZSoft. This format compresses its image data with the RLE type compression.
DCX. This is a multipage PCX format that enables a
file to contain more than one image.
It is handled the same as a regular PCX file, except for the multipage feature.
PhotoCD (PCD). This is a common high-resolution
format for images on CD-ROM.
An image file can contain one or more physical resolutions, with fixed dimensions.
FlashPix (FPX). The FlashPix file format was
developed through the combined efforts of Eastman Kodak Company,
Microsoft Corporation, Hewlett-Packard Company, and Live Picture Inc.
It combines the best features of existing formats with object orientation to make
the use of digital color images easier.
Exif Formats (TIFF and JPG) Exif is a standard for
image files created with digital cameras and other input devices.
The standard is set by the Japan Electronic Industry Development Association,
and formally it is called the Digital Still Camera Image File Format Standard.
Exif files contain either uncompressed TIFF images or compressed JPEG images.
In addition, these files can contain many comment fields of various types.
TIFF. This is a tag-based file format designed to promote universal interchanges of digital image data.
JPG. This is the JPEG format with YUV 4:2:2
sampling.
The Exif standard requires the width of the image to be a multiple of 16 and the
height to be a multiple of 8.
Windows Metafile WMF The Windows Metafile (WMF)
format is a vectored format that may or may not
also contain a raster image. When reading a WMF file, ThermalWiz converts all of
the image data to a raster image.
Photoshop 3.0 (PSD) is the format produced by the Adobe Photoshop graphics editor.
PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is a replacement for
the GIF format.
It is a full-featured (non-LZW) compressed format intended for widespread use
without legal restraints.
Truevision TGA (TARGA) is a file format created by
Truevision Inc.
ThermalWiz supports all uncompressed and RLE compressed TGA file formats.
PostScript Raster (Encapsulated PostScript). These
files are used primarily on PostScript printers.
These printers usually offer more variety of fonts and higher resolution than
standard laser printers.
EPS files will work on any PostScript compatible printer and any end-user
application that supports placement
of EPS files in its work space.
SUN Raster (RAS) is a format native to Sun UNIX platforms.
WordPerfect (WPG) format can contain vectored or raster images. [ back to top ]
