ViewONE Pro JPEG2000 Module

Free to ViewONE Pro's customers, the JPEG2000 Module offers viewing (and annotation support if licensed) for the latest high-compression iteration of the JPEG standard: JPEG2000 (JP2K).

The JPEG2000 file format uses new compression algorithms using wavelet technology to deliver high quality image files at substantially reduced file sizes than for the JPEG standard.

ViewONE Pro customers can benefit from support for JPEG2000 for free, through the JPEG2000 Module.

Many image viewers currently still don't support JPEG2000 as standard, instead requiring expensive plug-ins to add JPEG2000 capabilities. ViewONE Pro offers JPEG2000 support as standard, including annotation onto JPEG2000 (if the Annotations Module is purchased).

JPEG2000 files typically deliver a 20% reduction in file size over JPEG, without any associated loss in quality. JPEG2000s work by passing a lower-resolution version of the image at the start of data transit (similar to a low-res JPEG) and 'filling in' the detail, the higher resolution detail of the image, through continued data transfer. This means that if data transfer is interrupted, the user should still be able to see a lower-res verison of the finished image.
