- This software adds/replaces many new graphic formats in PageStream
- V3.x/4.x. It's a real PageStream filter and not a script.
- It offers following benefits:
-
- - It does not only add new formats, it also improves already
- supported formats by offering more complete format support.
-
- - Speed for certain file formats is higher
-
- - The filter does not need much memory
-
- - Reliability is a major concern. In case of problems,
- this filter will provide complete error info with possible
- fix-hints and retry options.
-
- - The filter uses the IRW library for loading. This means,
- locale support and more...
-
-
- The Universal filter shipps with the IRW library currently supporting:
-
- BMP: 1, 4, 8, 16, 24 and 32 Bit, Windows V3 and OS/2 format,

-
- This is the second major release of the Universal filter. The
- number of changes and enhancements since version 1.x are too big
- in order to list them here.
