Kiev, Ukraine. - September 9, 2007: XVEL Software, the leading developer of
image processing software,
today announces the release of Binarization Image Processor program.

Created especially for professionals involved with paper and microfilm scanning and
digitization, Binarization Image Processor (BIP) is
a fast image converter of color and grey-scale images into bitonal form.

BIP\'s use of cutting-edge techniques including dynamic thresholding, local area
adaptive binarization and OCR preparation thresholding to binarize images is what
sets it apart from the rest of the competition.

Unlike many of the other batch image converters, BIP offers a manual review mode
that gives users the ability to scan through the resulting bitonal images and
improve output image quality manually after automatic batch processing is complete.

BIP automatically saves all changes eliminating the need to perform redundant
actions like confirming image saves. Elimination of this redundancy alone generates
a time savings of up to 90%.

BIP also allows users to set binarization parameters visually using trial images
from the batch.

*Supports over 40 input image formats (TIFF, JPEG, JPEG2000, PDF, and more).
*Supports TIFF/G4, PDF and JBIG2 bitonal output image formats.
