Screen Shots Features Image Processing

Roboreader's goal is to offer minimal user interface intrusion. Speed and elegance are key here. The idea is that you are looking at an image, there is no reason pixels should be sacrificed for a static UI while doing so.

Yes, you are looking at all of it.

File support for JPG/JPEG/JPE/JFIF/BMP/PNG/GIF/TIFF/TIF/ICO
Archive support for ZIP/CBZ/RAR/CBR
Minimal UI footprint
ZIP archive image viewing
Animated GIF support
High quality bicubic image processing
Image tag filtering (XMP metadata)
File age filtering
Desktop pasting
Custom Slideshows
Hardware acceleration
ICC profile support
Fast load speeds

* Not all features tested for Windows XP compatibility.

Roboreader offers bicubic image resize filtering for superior image viewing in addition to bilinear, fant and nearest neighbor. Most web browsers and image viewers use a lower quality bilinear image processing.
