Open Images
The software will open images in standard file formats including JPEG, TIFF, GIF, PNG, TGA and BMP.
Video files can be saved as AVI and SQV. If the image was previously saved using this software, then
other image details such as the image's scale, history and annotations will be loaded as well. Many demo
images are included with this software to increase user familiarity with the software.
