OT:Graphic wizards help: What file format is this?

Desdinova · #1 May 13th, 2003, 08:43 AM

hmmm,found the plug-in i have and it is real optimizer. but not sure if it was part of that plugin or the base acdsee 5.0
i notice there is a trial Version of 5.0.1 you could always download it and see if you can open the files with it. if nothing else.

Ok, thanx again.
Otherwise I'll have to hear with him if he wants to purchase the plugin.

so, real optimizer.

BLast it.
I downloaded the Real optimizer and the 2d vector pack plug-ins trials.

Still no pictures....
I'll have to look into this further, bow that I know that it can be done!

I can see that I got PIC and PICT plug-ins aswell. They come with the standard install I belive.
Still, no pictures...

weird. i think i may have looked at the wrong pictures Last night.
i am looking at badrum and clockow this morning and i a see no pictures or picture attributes. it does allow me to open them but there is no picture. when i try to edit it says there is no picture to edit.

sorry about that Ruatha.

btw i have fotocanvas and real optimizer. both came with my original purchase as part of a special offer to upgrade from trial to full Version. but this was many months ago.

Ok.
I can open them aswell, no picture or info. All it says is that it's a Bicubic interpolation ???
But alas, no picture!

I'm giving up. If he want's to see them he'll have to fix it himself, I'll hear if he still has the old 486 in a closet though, that might solve the mystery!

There are about 20 PIC formats out, so I opened it up in a Hex editor, but the header info doesn't match any of the Versions that listed that information.

(Nor was i able to find anything by searching for a format that uses these bytes as identifiers - - - bu i tried renaming it to almost every format i could think of, incuding those with clearly different headers, with no result.

0084C1030080025E0104
0002003F003807023A04
3C0139063E053D033B00
00000000000000000000
0000FFFFFFFF

Both of them have that as their header followed by zeros up to offset 7c hex. If anyone can figure out what file format that is, great.
