resolution images from within Java. RasterMaster for Java aids the

restrictive low resolution printing has now been solved by

features such as image merge, deskew, despeckle, and cut & paste.

4, JPEG, GIF, BMP, EPS, DICOM, MO:DCA IOCA, JEDMICS, and CMYK. The
product can also be used to create powerful Internet browser applets.

technology.” stated Simon Wieczner, CEO of Snowbound. “Version 2.0
improves on the already powerful RasterMaster for Java’s
capabilities, making it the most powerful Java imaging component
