   GraphicConverter 8.0

   Agen G. N. Schmitz

   Lemkesoft has released [1]GraphicConverter 8.0, a major new release for
   the well-regarded graphic conversion and editing utility that now
   supports the latest 64-bit Intel-based Macs, as well as file sizes
   larger than 16 megapixels. GraphicConverter 8.0 brings several new
   batch processing capabilities, including highlight and shadow,
   histogram equalization, and scale to size with crop. It also adds EMF
   and EMZ import capabilities, an option to show elapsed time in a
   slideshow, and an option to replace an underscore character with a
   space when creating an HTML catalog. GraphicConverter 8.0 is a free
   update for owners of GraphicConverter 7, but it requires a paid upgrade
   of $29.95 for users with versions 1 through 6. Lemkesoft also notes
   that users who purchased GraphicConverter 7 from the Mac App Store may
   have to wait between 2 to 3 weeks to receive the update to version 8.0
   due to Apple's review process. ($39.95 new from Lemkesoft or from the
   [2]Mac App Store, free update from version 7.x, $29.95 upgrade from
   versions 1 through 6, 136 MB, [3]release notes)
