Easily convert images to smaller high-quality formats

Stardust Image Encoder 2004 is a suite of three powerful and time-saving tools, each designed to allow you to easily convert images into smaller high-quality formats. It offers real-time preview, state-of-the-art compression, easy cropping and resizing, watermark capability, adjustments, batch and command-line processing, and more. Image Encoder 2004 reads many image file formats, and writes to popular compressed formats including JPEG 2000 and GIF. It is also the perfect companion to prepare images for use in Stardust Screen Saver Toolkit. Image Encoder 2004 lets you fine-tune all settings for an image, with a full preview of every transformation. You can resize to any dimensions, or select only one dimension and let Image Encoder calculate the other one. Cropping is made easy with a moveable cropping frame, and you can select the exact dimensions of the desired crop. You can add a watermark to customize and protect your images, adjust brightness and contrast, even convert to black and white or sepia tone! Any change can easily be undone without affecting any other changes or settings. Image Encoder 2004 Batch Wizard lets you encode multiple image files in a single operation. Use the settings from the main wizard to convert a set of image files to the same format and quality, resize to the same dimensions, add a watermark to all images, or convert them all to black and white or sepia tone. You can save images in their original folders, or put all encoded images into the same destination folder. Image Encoder 2004 Command-Line Utility lets you encode images from a command prompt, so you can incorporate image conversion into your batch files and scripts. Batch resizing and conversion to black and white and sepia tone is supported. Image Encoder reads 23 file types from 12 major categories of file formats and writes to all the most important compressed file formats (JPG, J2K, PNG, GIF).
