Iview is considerably less in many areas, but much much faster in viewing, rotating, renaming and saving as a new format. In addition, it has batch processes to create slide shows that can be burned to a cd, sent to others, etc. The number of features is longer than I can remember, but it does not do some of the editing that PSP and other photo programs do. I have several other photo and graphic programs that I use when serious fixing, etc is needed, but when viewing my new photos from the digital camera, etc, its much faster to go through them (when in the folder, just the space bar moves to the next.) Its a freebie and I wouldn't be without it. Now as to the ai format. Can't say that I have seen that one, but if you would like, you can send me one off list and I can try it for you. The great thing about Iview is that IF you use the "S" to save a file, it comes up automatically in the SAVE AS mode. Helps to keep from overwriting, plus it will warn you if you try.

Thanks Keith,

How is Irfanview different from Paint Shop Pro?
I can open jpgs, and eps files in Paint Shop Pro and
change the name of the file, but I am paranoid that I
am changing the virgin file in some minute way by
opening it up to change name. Can Irfanview open ai files? I have a pc.


Thanks,

Gail

--------------------------------------
If you will download Irfanview

http:\\www.irfanview.com

and install it, you can use it to open just about any
graphic file and then press the "S" which will bring up the SAVE AS
which will allow you to save it with a different extension and with a
different name if you like. Its a very useful program even for resizing for
emailing.

Sometimes I am given a diskette that contains art -
either a jpg, or ai, or eps., and I would like to
change the name of the art file before I email it as
an attachment.

I absolutely cannot take ANY chance of changing in


any


minute way the virgin art.

I usually send it directly from the diskette, rather
than saving it to my desktop and changing the name,
even if it has a name I dont want to send.

Am I crazy?
