Optiverter Readable Formats
Optiverter can often determine automatically the input format of an image. The extension is the first clue (.jpg or .jpeg), but it will also examine the image's data to try and determine the image's type. For example, a TIFF image could have an extension of .tif or .tiff, and both will be properly recognized by Optiverter.
