Be on the look out for ASDG's The Art Department coming in April.

The Art Department incorporates all of ASDG's cumlative expertise in deep
bit-map color processing. As such, it promises to be the fastest and most
precise deep bit-map processing engine yet produced for the Amiga.

TAD uses modular format decoders. The program comes bundled with our
Super-IFF loader (which loads anything that even looks like IFF from 1
to 24 bit-planes) as well as a Digi-View 3.0 21 bit loader. Other loaders
which will go on-sale when TAD ships include:

o Sculpt (a 24 bit format).
o Silver (a 24 bit format).
o GIF (an 8 bit format).
o Targa (16 and 32 bit formats).
o Rendition (a 32 bit format).

Other loaders are planned.

TAD provides the image processing capabilities you could get with Professional
ScanLab but at a considerable savings in cost (list price: $89.95). Additional
loaders range from 20 to 50 bucks.

TAD, in brief, is a 24 bit image processing system for the Amiga print and
video artist. We think its speed, accuracy, and capabilities will render all
other similar utilities (either commercial or otherwise) obsolete.
