                           =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Main features (even in demo version) include:

- Loading of IFF files (from 1 to 24 bit per pixel)

- Showing of the elaborated image on screen

- Possibility to modify the colouring of the picture by operating on 5
  different aspects:

  1) Balancing   (RGBK/CMYK)
  2) Gamma       (RGBK)
  2) Contrast    (RGBK)
  4) Brightness
  5) Saturation

- Possibility to select among this dithers:

   2) Burkes
   3) Ordered
   4) Halftone
   5) Romboid

- Use system's printer drivers  for  printing  in  24  bit  per  pixel
  bypassing os's render functions.

IMPORTANT!!

EasyPrint is shareware, registering activates  some  options  actually
not working (why disabled):

- Saving of the elaborated image in the IFF24 format

- Loading of images in the JPEG (16 million of colours) format

- Loading of images through datatypes  (GIF,  X-BitMap,  TIFF,  Targa,
  QRT, PCX are enclosed in the archive)
 
- Use of Virtual Memory on disk (also on Amiga  without  MMU,  as  the
  Amiga  1200), for loading images of every size without being limited
  by the amount of RAM

- Work screen with 256 colours for better rendering the 24 bit  format
  of the image kept in memory

- Possibility of cropping a section of the image, of  elaborating  and
  printing it separately from the whole picture (for example useful to
  eliminate borders, text or to print only a particular of the image)

- Possibility of bending of a free number of  degrees  the  dither  of
  printing  for  each of the fundamental colour (cyan, magenta, yellow
  and black) for minimizing the tendency of the human  eye  to  remark
  the horizontal and vertical lines generated by the standard dithers.

- Possibility of dephase the dithers  of  printing  for  each  primary
  colour to optimize blending of colours.

- Ink Compensation to correct inks impurities.

- POSTER option, for printing Poster of every size!

- A lot  of  dithers  of  printing  (actually  11)  to  be  used  with
  EasyPrint.

- Possibility of using many External Modules for S-FX!!
