Having just received Harald Heim’s ‘Plug in news’

I found this link to Leadtools, which allows you to download this latest Photoshop plugin, Leadtools state they are giving this product away as they wish to encourage its use!
http://www.leadtools.com/Utilities/PSPlugIn/PhotoShop_plug-i n.htm

This is a blurb I took from their website – By the way you have to go through the full shopping cart-checkout procedure before they send the download link and serial number –

"JPEG 2000 provides high compression with image quality superior to all existing standard encoding techniques. This high compression and quality performance is due to the adaptation of wavelet transforms. Wavelet transforms are mathematical formulas that represent complex structures in the image, thereby compressing an extremely large amount of image data into a relatively small amount of compressed data. This compression technique allows applications to save compressed images with higher compression ratios and better image quality as compared to any other software currently in production."

Two further matters
1. I have downloaded but not yet tried the product
2. I do hope I don’t get abused for spamming, I can assure you that I don’t wish to offend anyone, in fact if anyone is offended, all I can say to them is
"Bollocks to you!"

Not really. It would be a great utility if there was a real use for it.

Right…this is built in to CS isn’t it? And what is that shopping cart thing? Sounds like they are collecting credit card information for something that is free. Very suspicious!

I’ve never checked. Due to it’s non-support by web browsers and digital cameras, I cannot conceive of a use for JPEG2000.

And what is that shopping
cart thing? Sounds like they are collecting credit card information for something that is free. Very suspicious!

Well, if they are collection credit card info, sure. Might just be set up with a cart system for their own convenience when they have a pay product and doesn’t need a card yet.

They don’t ask for credit card details, but they do ask for everything else!! – the only thing that you must supply correctly however is the email address!!
PS does not give you the option to save in the two new jpeg file formats of ..J2K and JP2 (that I can see anyway)- Obviously it will only be of any use if it becomes a standard format.
I could see where it would be useful for images on websites, it would possibly mean better images or smaller file sizes?

as broadband service expands and WiMax hopefully becoming a new standard, it won’t matter anyway if JPEGs load faster. The current compression is pretty good. Higher image quality however would be a plus.

For lower compression factors, you won’t see much (if any) difference between the original and the JPEG2000 version. For very high compression rates, you’d better stick to the old JPEG…

I think JPEG2000 is great, but as stated before: no digicam or webbrowser is supporting it, so nobody will use it.

The only thing where it is supported is in Acrobat 6 (also the reader).
