In depth
A closer look at ACDSee Free
ACDSee Free is a straightforward application that the company issued for users in need of a high speed image viewer that can also convert photos to various formats, as well as to set images as wallpaper.The Free version is a notch below its siblings, ACDSee and ACDSee Pro, sporting a poor array of features reported to what the latter have under their hood.ACDSee Free steps in with a simple and plain design, without compromising on ease of use and accessibility. All of the features are converged inside a few menus and buttons that don’t take forever to understand.The main advantage comes from the support for input formats that includes PNG, JPG, BMP, GIF, TIFF, EMF, WMF, PCX, TGA and WBMP. You can also convert between these formats using the ‘Save as’ function located in the first menu.Other highlights include the option to run it in Full screen, a customizable zoom factor, navigation controls, rotate to the left or to the right, set as wallpaper and the possibility to configure file associations.Zooming the pictures can also be performed via the ‘+’ and ‘-’ keys and navigating between photos is also possible using the mouse scroll.As far as the Options are concerned, you can enable the gamma correction, disable animations, set the application to stay on top, as well as resizing scenarios.Overall, we can’t say that ACDSee Free impressed us very much, seeing as we can think of at least five major image viewers that are definitely more feature-generous than this one.
