Preview can view and convert a bunch of image file formats including:

  • PDF
  • JPEG
  • JPEG2000 (JP2)
  • Photoshop
  • TIFF
  • PNG
  • BMP
  • TGA
  • SGI
  • MacPaint
  • QuickTime Image format

 

 

 

The Preview application in Jaguar offers up some very useful new features. When viewing PDF's, an Aqua drawer slides out of the document and shows you preview thumbnails for each page of the document. Clicking a thumbnail will take you directly to that page.

Another cool use of the drawer is if you open several image files at the same time (for example, JPEGs from your digital camera), instead of each image opening up in its own window, Preview opens a single window with a drawer that contains thumbnails for each opened image. This is a great way to browse through a large collection of images.

Another highly requested feature was to support rotating of images and/or PDF documents. Check out the the View menu which now sports Rotate Left, Rotate Right, Flip Horizontal and Flip Vertical commands.
