FALCON IMAGE UTILITIES
SKWare One 03:01:1993
This is one of a series of archives of Falcon Image Utilities from
SKWare One. If you have not downloaded those others listed here, you
may find all (or most) of them useful and/or entertaining.
These utility programs will display only on Falcon030. They will
function on ST/STe/MegaSTe/TT030, but without any display:
XGA__TGA.LZH Programs to convert XGA to TGA format and TGA to XGA,
XGA and TGA viewer programs. ST/TT converters included.
IFF2XIMG.LZH Converts Amiga 32-color (5-plane) IFF to 256-color
XIMG. ST/TT version is included; display only on Falcon.
SPEC2XGA.LZH Converts Spectrum (.SPU and .SPC) files to XGA TrueColor.
An ST/TT version is included; display only on Falcon.
These utility programs will run and/or display ONLY on Falcon030.
They WILL NOT function on ST/STe/MegaSTe/TT030:
RWL2XIMG.LZH Converts Seymor-Radix IMG_Scan raw data files to 256-color
XIMG. Sample file included. Excellent image quality.
CS__DEMO.LZH Falcon030 TrueColor demo of COLORSCAN II. Converts scanned
IMG files to colors and greys.
CSCANIMG.LZH Mono IMG file for conversion by CS__DEMO.
SURATXGA.LZH Seurat TrueColor image in XGA format.
RUNS ON ALL ATARI 680x0 PLATFORMS:
BITCAMRA.LZH Enlarges, reduces and reproportions monochrome, 4-color,
16-color, 256-color, and TrueColor images with remarkable
speed and accuracy. Loads GEM IMG, STTT IMG, XIMG, and
XGA images. (This a demo version; save is disabled.) May
be used as viewer for conversions from programs above;
runs on everything Atari except 8-bits...
Also of interest:
IMFORMAT.LZH Proposed SKWare One IMG format extensions.
MONITORS: These programs have been developed for use on RGB monitors
when run on Falcon030. They have not been tested on VGA monitor systems
and certain ones of them will definitely not function with VGA.
CSCANIMG.LZH contains a large scanned mono IMG file for conversion by
SCANDEMO.PRG. The SCANDEMO.PRG can be found in the CS__DEMO.LZH.
(Otherwise, all you got here is a very nice dithered mono IMG
suitable for printing!)
CS__DEMO.LZH:
COLORSCAN Version 2.0 TrueColor Demo: SCANDEMO.PRG
SCANDEMO converts GEM monochrome IMG files created with any 32-greyscale
scanner (like the MiGraph HandScanner) set on the "Photo" or halftone
mode from their dithered dot-print form to color rasters. This demo
performs the conversion to 32 greys in TrueColor mode. There are
options to set the image contrast and to select a 320x200 or 640x400
TrueColor screen size for the conversion. Save is disabled.
COLORSCAN II will allow conversions to 37 colors for 32-scale scanners
and to a variety of color palettes. There will be options for 64-scale
and 256- scale scanners, as well as a long list of file formats for
saving, including both color and greyscale TIFF, Targa16 and Targa24
TGA, XGA, XIMG, STTT IMG, STTF IMG, as well as all the common 16-color
formats.
NOTE:

Atari .XGA (output conversion of 16-color images)

Includes:
* BitCamera: enlarges, reduces and re-proportions both B&W AND COLOR
images. Fast, accurate process-camera quality re-sized image can be
compared side-by-side with original.
* New Clip and Page functions for both B&W AND COLOR: Rotate, Flip,
Invert, Crop, Cut, Paste, Overlay, Copy using whole images of any
size. These powerful functions allow you to do multiple horizontal
and vertical image- merging that no merge program can. In-program
crop of ragged scans. Cut'n'Paste any-size image.
* SCANNER Support: Now SEURAT "handshakes" with Dr. Bob's ScanLite
accessory to allow you to scan directly into SEURAT's image buffers
with full in-program control. (Requires mono monitor; ScanLite not
supplied with SEURAT.)
* Now loads PageStream Fonts (in addition to System, Degas and GDOS
fonts); these vector fonts can scaled horizontally and vertically to
any size and filled with hundreds of interior fill styles and colors.
* SEURAT is the ONLY Atari program that allows the creation of
any-sized color images, the ONLY Atari program with eight virtual-
screen buffers for multiple-image operations, the ONLY Atari program
that offers you the same powerful functions for COLOR IMAGES that you
expect to find only in top monochrome programs (and, of course, we do
it in mono, too)!
* SEURAT has been and will remain the most full-featured Atari Art
program with more than 400 functions and commands: a super-fast
multi-ratio Zoom; built-in print drivers for DeskJet and 9-pins plus a
separate GDOS printing program with DeskTop Publishing power; powerful
image-conversion routines; spline-curve and Bezier-curve drawing
tools; variable mouse-speed; anti-alias; palette editor with special
effects; 11 block shapers & twisters to modify image blocks; 92 color
& mono fill patterns; 42 brushes including user-defined multi-colored;
4 graphic write modes & 21 block & mask write modes; circle, ellipse &
filled disc in free, repeat & concentric modes; round- & square-
cornered rectangles & solids; rays; airbrush; clear-circle & clear-
box; vertical, horizontal & free lines; polylines & polygons in line-
edge or spline-curve; area & seed fill; user-set clipping; color
remap; mirror; screen shift, flip, invert & rotate; fill editor; brush
editor; line editor; disk utilities like Format and in_program File
Directory; and a hundred or so other features & tools that there's no
room to mention here...
* EVERY purchaser of SEURAT Version 2.8 is guaranteed a free upgrade
to SEURAT Version 3.0, which will run in all resolutions and video
modes on all Atari's, including the Falcon's 256-color and TrueColor
modes. (Just as during April, 1993, all SEURAT purchasers of versions
higher than 2.21 will be receiving their free upgrades to Version 2.8.)
