The Pixel Image Converter enables you to convert any cataloged pixel image into the different formats on the fly, e.g. JPEG, TIFF^^, BMP, GIF, ScitexCT, PNG, PCX, and PDF. It also lets you resize the image and convert it into another color space.
With Cumulus, the images can also be cropped, rotated or flipped. Sharpen and Blur filters can be applied for the image processing. The sequence of the conversion processes is cropping first, then resizing and after that applying a filter. Finally the image is saved in the specified color space and output format.
To convert image assets into another format:
1. Select the record(s) representing the image asset(s) to be converted.
2. Select Asset > Convert To menu command.
The Browse for Folder dialog opens for choosing a destination for the converted asset.
3. Select the folder and click Open / OK.
A dialog opens for choosing the converter. The dialog lists the Asset Processors available to you. Available to you for converting are the Asset Processors that are activated in the Asset Handling Set which is chosen for Asset Access in your User Settings.
4. Select Pixel Image Converter as Asset Converter.
The Pixel Image Converter Parameters dialog opens.
