- FROM THE FILE-LIST SCREEN

- 1) Select a file (or a group of files) to convert. You can select multiple
- files by clicking and holding the mouse button while dragging the pointer
- over a number of files. You can also select multiple ranges by holding
- down [Shift] while clicking on file names to select or deselect them.
-
- NOTE: The trial version will only convert one file at a time.
-
- 2) Pull down the "Convert" menu with the mouse (or type ALT-C)
- and select the desired type of file.
-
- 3) GDS will open a dialog box that allows you to ROTATE the image or MIRROR
- (flip) it vertically or horizontally as it writes out the file. GDS will
- attempt to name the file the same as the source but with the new
- extension. If the extension is the same, or a file with the name already
- exists, GDS will name the file GDS<n> where <n> is the next available
- number, i.e. GDS000, GDS001, GDS002...

- area you want to save. Click and hold the mouse button. Drag the
- rectangle that appears to the desired size. Release the mouse button.
- Only the area inside the rectangle will be saved by following the
- remaining steps. (If you are unhappy with your selection you can return
- the crop rectangle to include the entire screen by selecting "Reset Crop
- Rectangle" from the "File" menu.)
