IMAGE IMPORT FILE FORMATS IN SOSET TYPESET 32-BITS VERSION 4.00

back to home page

The image options starting SOSET TYPESET 32-BITS VERSION 4.00 have been dramatically changed and exchanged with a more reliable and modern library. This library offers more and new formats and great features. Unfortunately some of the formats are not available, due to license-regulations.
The image procedures will try to repair possible errors in images in the WMF-format.
You can download the special 16-bits program image.exe which contains the "old" filters and can be used to convert the various file formats into a WMF-format for import into the new SOSET typeset. We also recommend to use the OLE-options to link 3rd party application-designs to a SOSET typeset stamp.

Below you will find an overview of all new import and export formats:

Note: not all options might have been implemented yet, please contact our support department for a current status.
