LView Pro -- This application is one of the easiest image viewers and editors available. Useful utilities include screen capture, transparent background (for your WWW gifs), multiple file opening, diagnostic information, quick print, slideshow, image filtering, and many, many image enhancing attributes. Supported image types include GIF, JPEG, BMP, PCX, TIFF, PBM, TGA, DIB, and several more. Both interlaced GIF 87a and 89a image types are supported. On-line help for LView Pro is extensive, including the JPEG FAQ document available on the 'net. While not the fastest image viewer or the most complete image editor, LView remains one of the best all-around programs for viewing and manipulating images, and at $30 (32-bit version or commercial use of the 16-bit version) or for free (16-bit non-commercial use), it's definitely worth the price. Pros: Many features and image types supported, easy to use, GIF 89a, extensive on-line help Cons: Slow image viewer (relative to ACDSee), not as many features as Paint Shop Pro New: New version available for Windows 95, new options and commands available in this version Version Reviewed: Windows 3.x - 1.B.
