Atalasoft Announces Release of DotImage 2.0

Atalasoft DotImage® - the Next Generation Imaging toolkit suite developed specifically for the Microsoft .NET Framework

Northampton, MA, USA. — November 1, 2004 — Atalasoft, Inc., a leading provider of imaging components for developers, today released DotImage version 2.0 which includes the product packages DotImage Photo, DotImage Photo Pro, and DotImage Document Imaging. The most comprehensive set of .NET imaging components available, DotImage offers developers photographic and document imaging for Internet and Windows based applications. DotImage shares many of the same design patterns as the Microsoft .NET Framework, offering developers an object model that is easy to use, feature rich, and high performance. Atalasoft is also pleased to announce a new licensing model where all desktop applications created with the toolkits are runtime royalty free.

DotImage’s imaging technology is designed to be leveraged into Microsoft .NET applications quickly to save both time and money without any hassles of COM interop and the infamous "DLL Hell".  Deployment for Windows Forms applications is as simple as copying the files to the end user's computer. The thin client image viewer and editor for ASP.NET included with DotImage Photo Pro and Document Imaging is a solution that requires absolutely no client dependencies but a web browser for image scrolling, zooming, rubberbanding, and editing.

“Atalasoft DotImage 2.0 is a powerful new release that continues to forge ahead in the area of Microsoft .NET imaging.” said William Bither, President of Atalasoft. “Due to the extensible feature-rich design, and ease of use, our customer’s have used DotImage in ways we would have never imagined. The new functionality included in the DotImage 2.0 release has been a big hit with our existing photographic imaging and document imaging customer base.”

Version 2.0 has been packaged with power for specific developer needs. DotImage Photo is ideal for adding basic color and grayscale image processing functionality. Includes controls for viewing, editing, rubberbanding, and printing images and can be used as an extension to GDI+ with added image codecs, over 100 image processing commands, printing components, and high performance visual controls for displaying images.

DotImage Photo Pro includes all features of DotImage Photo and is an ideal package for color and grayscale imaging for the photographic and pre-press industry. DotImage Photo Pro is a professional imaging library with support for EXIF, IPTC, XMP, TIFF Tags, Adobe® Photoshop® Metadata, Advanced Color Management, region of interest processing, automatic color adjustments, RAW image support, advanced image processing commands, and a multi-threaded thumbnail list control. This package also includes Atalasoft’s WebForm ASP.NET Server control for thin client image viewing, scrolling, zooming, and editing.

Atalasoft’s DotImage Document Imaging package is designed for professional document imaging and includes all features of DotImage Photo Pro with the addition of high performance scale to gray display, TWAIN scanning, annotations, auto-deskew, despeckle, border removal, remove noise, advanced binary thresholding, and multi-page TIFF and PDF support. This professional package includes Atalasoft DotTwain for advanced TWAIN scanning and Atalasoft’s full featured annotation toolkit, DotAnnotate.

Pricing starts at $499, $999, and $1799 for DotImage Photo, DotImage Photo Pro, and DotImage Document Imaging, respectively.
