WHAT IS
I
MAGEAXS PRO?
ImageAXS Pro lets you create visual databases to organize and
manage the files on your computer — especially image, movie,
sound, and 3D files.
The database files it creates (called collections) combine text
information with thumbnail images of the original files, so you can
see what you’re describing, even if the files are on a CD-ROM, an
Iomega Zip disk, or a networked drive that isn’t currently connected
to your computer.
ImageAXS Pro offers several ways for you to view, search, and
organize your collections. You can use ImageAXS Pro to organize
your files from scratch, or by importing information to expand on a
database you've already created.
ImageAXS Pro also provides you with a variety of ways to share
your multimedia files with others, including slide shows, Web pages,
and mini-brochures (called e-ZCards) that can be opened without the
help of any other program and are small enough to send by e-mail.
KEY CONCEPTS
AND TERMS

below. Becoming familiar with these terms will help you learn the
program more quickly.
SOURCE FILES
A source file is any file on your computer (or a separate disk or
storage device) that is catalogued in ImageAXS Pro.
