- I just picked up a second-hand copy of ADPro v2.5 and to my surprise,
- found that the supplied -updated- JPEG loader can't recognize jpegs that
- include Photoshop or Applemark header hunks (I'm not too savvy with the
- fileformat tech stuff, but I think those are just hunks added by the
- software which saves or creates the image). Those are just two examples,
- it may be that it doesn't recognize anything but vanilla jpeg files.
-
- This is rather silly since my oooold version of ADPro (v2.0.1) could at
- least recognize, load and manipulate those jpegs with Photoshop
- identifiers in the header (though it does balk at those with Applemark ids).
-
- This is progress?
-
- I even tried an unregistered copy of HamLab and it reads, loads and
- manipulates them all, albeit with a warning that it doesn't recognize the
- JFIF revision for some of them.
-
- A'right...bitching over with, does anyone know where I can get a
- non-braindead jpeg loader for use with ADPro? I'm not sure if ASDG is
- still around, or still supporting the Amiga, or if they bother with
- people who buy their products second-hand, so any info would be useful.
-
- Thanks.
