Examples of these functions include
converting to a specific output format, rotating or scaling input
data formats to fit any output paper size, modifying the attributes
of a plot (pens, fills, colors, etc.), converting to compact raster
formats (TIFF), displaying images on screen and plotting files out
of archives or scanners.
The input and output configuration
of gXconvert
can be done easily to suit the needs of an individual application.
It satisfies two needs. First, the configuration can be used to
preserve the exact same output as the original file format even
though the conversion has created a new file format. Integrity is
retained in measures and details. If the input format does not
provide all information needed to create the output format - color
tables, pens and even graphics elements can be configured for the
missing parts.
Also, this modification functionality
in conversions can work the same way if the output needs to look
different, or the input file contains features (fonts, linestyles,
etc.) not supported by the device or output format. gXconvert
includes may popular predefined configurations to save setup time.
