Hi all

Does any one know of a very small application for viewing JPG files on pc's?

It has to be able to read CMYK JPG-files (I know that any browser can view
RGB JPG-files)

I send a lot of CMYK JPG files to customers, and I would like to send a very
smal viewer along with the graphic-files.

thanx in advance!!

Thank you for that tip, William. I've just downloaded it and it's
everything you say. Small memory footprint too. I was pleasantly
surprised to see it reads AI EPS, PS EPS and DCS EPS!
It failed to show one or two PSD's, claiming they were Photoshop 3 files
requiring PS3.0...!

Other than that an excellent piece of software.

We normally use PaintShop Pro for viewing (it, too reads DCS, most PSD's
and raster and vector EPS) and has an arguably better interface proving
more detailed file info with faster redraw then Polyview, but then it
isn't FREE, or at least we paid for our licensed copies!

Thanks a lot :-)

I like this one-- Polyview. Does thumbnails and slide shows. I use it
for viewing my digital camera shots.

Another excellent freeware viewer is IrfanView, downloadable from
http://stud1.tuwien.ac.at/~e9227474/english.htm. File size of the .EXE
is 359KB. I do not know about it's specific capability vis-a-vis CMYK
JPG's, but it has a very broad range.
