Author: Ton Brand Company: Ton's Software Computer: PowerPC MacOS: 7.5 or later License: shareware US$8.00 Abstract: HTML OptimizerPro's main function is to save space on your web pages by removing unnecessary characters and tags, making parsing the page by a browser more efficient. Four other useful functions of HTML OptimizerPro are: (1) Checking the so called tagged pairs, i.e. the tags that always have to appear together with their end tags. Further, IMG tags are checked for WIDTH, HEIGHT and ALT attributes. ALT attributes can be added if missing, with or without string. (2) Checking the validity of the internal links. (3) Marking dangling tags and missing attributes to find them quickly. (4) Converting special characters to the &....; notation. HTML OptimizerPro optimizes very fast: a few seconds for an average file. New in this update is that optimizing and checking hyperlinks works more efficient. HTML OptimizerPro is a PPC application and requires Mac OS 7.5 or later. -- Ton Brand Ton's Software http://www.spidernet.nl/~ton_brand [Archived as /info-mac/text/html/html-optimizer-pro-16.hqx; 1053 K] ------------------------------ Date: 3 May 2000 From: julian miller Subject: [*] iView 3.8 with iUpload 1.0 iView Multimedia 3.8 has several improvements like the ability to read Alias Pix format, AGD4 (Freehand 8), and drw7 (Canvas 7). Also iView Multimedia has added a Chinese plug-in so its menus and dialogs can be read in Chinese. Even more significant is the addition of a new module called iUpload which allows uploading images direct to photo upload sites on the web. iUpload can upload directly from and iView catalog directly to the Photopoint and Zing photo web sites. More sites will be added over time.

It can be used by pros in a demanding publishing environment because it follows international standards, is photoshop compatible, is extremely fast, powerful, stable and has great color precision. At the same time it is not just for pros because it is fun, inexpensive, practical and easy to use for anyone with a Macintosh. 8000 media files can be kept in one catalog and an infinite number of these catalogs can be created. Create a web site of photos with just two clicks. Export catalogs of media from iView Multimedia as QuickTime movies or a poster or a text database or as an HTML website. iView Multimedia can print out images and catalogs in a number of formats including for a CD jewel case or Zip disk case and in many other ways. Add annotation in the professional (ANPA) format used by Photoshop to any media file. Add annotation as a batch to thousands of files at a time something Photoshop cannot do. iView many other tools to batch rename, move, copy, convert media files. Can also create finder icons for all images in a catalog. Display media files thru 4 different views. Info, Thumbnail, Full Size and Slide Show. It uses Apples drag and drop technology very effectively.
