Teacup Software today announce the release of ImageSwapper, a new plug-in aimed at streamlining the process of replacing low resolution for-placement-only (FPO) images with their high resolution counterparts. The plug-in was developed in close collaboration with production departments at a number of major magazines, and has been optimized to be an effective time-saving production tool. Designed to allow production specialists to replace all the images in a document in a single sitting, ImageSwapper has numerous features to save time and increase efficiency.
How it works
ImageSwapper features a single dialog that lists all the images in a document and all the possible replacement images. The user can display original and replacement images in the ImageSwapper dialog, and must choose two identical points on each image. With this information, ImageSwapper automatically calculates how much the replacement image should be rotated and scaled, while offering the option to manually override any setting.
"We spent a lot of time working with production people in real-world situations," says Teacup president Lawrence Horwitz. "We added as many features as we could to make sure that this plug-in saved production time without compromising the precision needed in this kind of workflow."
Features include
- Simple and effective user interface
- Detailed, high resolution views of original and replacement images
- Visual placement of reference points
- Manual override options for greater precision
- Tracks replaced images as you work
- Replaces multiple instances of same file all at once or one at a time
Availability and Requirements:
ImageSwapper retails for $199 USD and is available for download and purchase from Teacup's website. ImageSwapper works with InDesign CS and InDesign CS-2 on Macintosh OS X and Windows 2000 and above.
