Summary: Press Releases Sent To comp.sys.amiga.announce Message-ID: <1756@madnix.UUCP> Date: 8 Mar 91 06:39:44 GMT References: <27d116cd.378e@petunia.CalPoly.EDU> Reply-To: perry@madnix.UUCP (Perry Kivolowitz) Distribution: usa Organization: ASDG Incorporated Lines: 34 There has been a request for a detailed comparison between ADPro and TAD. I have sent press releases from January which contain exactly this info to comp.sys.amiga.announce. Please look for it there. To summarize the differences: TAD is an entry level 24 bit-plane image processing which gets you into high performance basic applied image processing for very little money. ADPro is an extensible professionally oriented image processing system which is intended to centralize all image processing, image input and image output needs in one program which can be completely driven by very simple ARexx programs. TAD is not being discontinued in favor of ADPro. In fact, plans are underway for new work on TAD in the coming months. Several new modules have recently been added to ADPro. The new version (1.0.3) will be sent free of charge to registered owners. The new features include direct control over the Progressive FrameGrabber, Impulse FireCracker, ability to read HAM-E and MACPAINT files, and several new image processing functions. Please stop by Booth 800 at New York's Amiga-World Expo to see three new hardware peripherals now controllable by ADPro. (A film recorder, a dye sublimation printer, and the second generation of ASDG scanner support). Perry -- Perry Kivolowitz, ASDG Inc. ``We look for things. Things that make us go.''
