PicaJet - Photo Manager Software Description

Digital photo management and image database software

PicaJet is a powerful, feature-rich, but highly customizable and convenient digital photo management and image database software that will efficiently organize your fast-growing digital image collection.

PicaJet's Benefits:

Network support / Multi-user database access

Although PicaJet is designed as a standalone digital asset management system, you can use it in a network environment. To do this you need to import files with UNC paths. Here is an example of a UNC path: \\ server\my photos. Multiple users can read PicaJet’s database simultaneously but only one user at a time can modify the database contents.

Unlimited category-nesting levels

Organize your image categories with no limitations on nesting depth! You can create highly complex category structures or simple ones. It is up to you and depends entirely on your needs and not on any program limits.

Fast photo indexing

PicaJet utilizes OpenGL graphic acceleration and optimized image processing techniques to index your photo collection at blazingly fast speeds. PicaJet can also relieve you of the time consuming cataloguing chore by automatically importing metadata information and folder names as categories. Many of our customer testimonials praise the high speed indexing of PicaJet.

Assign images to different categories using icon sets

One of the most important benefits of the Picajet digital photo management tools is the ability to assign ONE picture to SEVERAL categories simultaneously. Contrast this with a conventional folder structure where each picture file can only exist in one folder. PicaJet also allows you to customize categories with icons from a standard icon set or it can generate the icon from the imported image itself. Now you can quickly find any required category using intuitive visual cues.

Dynamic categories

PicaJet supports several dynamic categories, which allow you to check the status of entire photo collection:

* Show All: shows all the album pictures (except any marked as hidden).
* Unassigned: shows the pictures which are not yet assigned to any category and are waiting to be categorized (tagged).

* Unsaved Metadata: shows those pictures which have descriptions or categories, not yet saved as embedded IPTC/XMP metadata. In this case, the metadata is stored in a temporary separate database. PicaJet will prompt you to embed this information into the image files before closing down via program options exit.

Works with huge databases

Every trip, vacation or holiday presents an opportunity to expand your digital photo collection. When developing Picajet we took special care to optimize it to work efficiently with vast numbers of photograph files. Add ten thousand shots or even hundreds of thousands of shots per album, Picajet will easily cope. Of course, you can also have as many albums as you want. Picajet frees you from any concerns about program limitations.

Offline-archive organization

The low cost of DVDs and CDs makes them ideal for storage of images. Picajet allows you to store offline images on DVD or CD while retaining much smaller thumbnail versions of the images on your PC hard drive for quick access. This frees up a significant amount of hard drive space. When you click on the thumbnail of an offline image, Picajet will prompt you to insert a specific DVD or CD to retrieve the full size image.

Super-zoooom!

Zoom in and out of any displayed image with just a single click. Thanks to PicaJet’s full support for OpenGL acceleration, the zoom feature is fast and smooth. Many PJ customers appreciate this super-feature.

Hide private photos

Are your private photos really private? You may wish to show your photos to friends but need to hide some of the more private ones. We can suggest two methods:

* Mark your photos using the hidden tag. Select the photos to be hidden and click Shift+Ctrl+H. You can then set a “master switch” to show or hide “hidden” photos using the Ctrl+H key combination.
* Segregate your images into separate albums

Automated import process

PicaJet imports images from digital cameras, scanners, web-cams and computer folders as well as a variety of WIA and TWAIN devices. Tasks such as downloading photographs, creating new folders, renaming files and clearing flash cards have never been so simple.

Storage of image descriptions inside files (XMP, IPTC, EXIF)

One of the benefits of IPTC or XMP is that the metadata is embedded into the photograph file. If you transfer an object (say a jpeg) with separate metadata from one system to another you also need to determine a way to transfer its metadata.
Separate storage in, for example, a relational database or XML file is also required. With IPTC or XMP, the metadata is always stored within the image file itself and is always transferred with it from application to application. PicaJet supports writing of IPTC in the case of JPEG files and XMP for Adobe DNG files. This ability to store metadata within the image files takes Picajet’s cataloguing and organizing features to new levels.

Batch EXIF, IPTC, XMP editor

Full integration of EXIF, IPTC, XMP metadata is the key to reliable and efficient management of any fast-growing digital photo collection. PicaJet allows you to copy image captions, categories and ratings to IPTC or XMP metadata within the images. It also has a powerful built-in Metadata Editor for batch metadata editing.

Batch resize, batch convert, batch rename

PicaJet can easily resize, convert and rename groups of photos in batch mode. You can convert your images to various image formats including JPG, BMP, PNG, etc… If you are shooting the pictures in a RAW format PicaJet’s RAW Conversion engine makes the conversion task rapid and accurate. PicaJet also enables you to batch rename your images using flexible template masks.

Support for more than 60 image file formats

PicaJet offers support for more than 60 media file formats including:

* All popular image formats: JPEG, TIFF, PSD, BMP, GIF, PNG, and so on.
* Almost all Camera RAW file formats from Canon, Nikon, Sony, Olympus, Pentax, etc. as well as the Adobe DNG format.

Support for video files

PicaJet imports and plays various movie formats including QuickTime, AVI, MPEG2, MPEG4, ASF, etc… The built-in player allows you to handle playback of the movie and you can even select a specific single frame as a movie thumbnail picture.
