IrfanView is one of the most popular image viewer available on the internet. Benedict Herold has reviewed IrfanView and found it extremely useful for small editing of images.
He loves the fact that it’s free and still it has got so many features and supports so many image formats. He points out some of the important features of Irfanview :
* Many supported file formats ( almost every image format)
* Multi-language support
* Thumbnail / Preview option
* Slideshow (Save as EXE / SCR)
* Fast directory browsing
* Batch conversion / editing
* Multipage editing
* File search
* Email Option
* Multimedia Playe (plays popular video)
* Change color depth
* Scan Support
* Cut/Crop
* IPTC editing
* Capturing
* Lossless JPG operations
* Effects (sharpen, blur, Adobe Photoshop filters)
* Extracts icons from EXE/DLL
* Lot of shortcut keys for ease of use
* Command line options for experts
* Customized plugin
There’s one place where Benedict and I agree when it comes to IrfanView and i.e. its user interface. Irfanview is very light weight and fast application, however its interface needs some more work.
