   Lemkesoft's [1]GraphicConverter ' the "Swiss Army knife" of graphics
   programs that can convert over 200 different graphic file formats into
   any of almost 80 graphic formats ' has been updated to version 10. This

   function, a Picture Package feature that enables you to easily print
   multiple copies of an image on one sheet of paper, the capability to
   use grayscale pictures as custom brushes, simplified access to metadata
   like EXIF and IPTC, and support for converting Apple's Live Photos
   format into an animated GIF. Amongst the vast number of additions and
   improvements, GraphicConverter 10 also improves LZW compression of TIFF
   images, adds a button to open custom fill patterns in the Pattern
   palette, enhances smart cropping in live previews, enhances the Shadow
   command, and adds a menu item for scaling images to Facebook sizes.
