Being an image-aware software, Image Uploader has some imaging capabilities. It can perform the following image-related tasks:
It recognizes the following file formats as images:
Image Uploader can load files of these formats and display previews for them, however, it can save the image only into the single format - JPEG. So if you create a thumbnail for some image file (say, GIF), or create a rotated version, it will be saved to JPEG format. See more details in the Resizing and Rotating Images topic.
If you need more advanced imaging capabilities than Image Uploader presents, you can send only the original files and perform all the imaging operations on the server side (for example, using Aurigma Graphics Mill both ActiveX and .NET versions or whatever other image processing tools which are available on your server platform). Image Uploader retrieves all necessary information to do it. The Server Imaging Sample demo application illustrates this approach.
