Plug-ins
Working with plug-ins
A plug-in is a software module that adds functionality to a larger program. ACDSee Pro comes standard with many different plug-
ins.
Types of plug-ins
Image Decode: Converts a file from a binary format to the image displayed in ACDSee Pro. Decode plug-ins allow ACDSee
Pro to display images of many different file formats. The files that you can view with ACDSee Pro depend on which decoding
plug-ins are installed on your computer.
Image Encode: Converts the image displayed in ACDSee Pro to a binary file format. Encode plug-ins allow ACDSee Pro to
save (or convert) images to many different file formats. The files that you can edit and save with ACDSee Pro depend on
which encoding plug-ins are installed on your computer.
Archive: Allows ACDSee Pro to display and save archives of many different file formats. The archives that you can view and
create with ACDSee Pro depend on which archive plug-ins are installed on your computer.

We cannot ensure the quality of plug-ins that are not certified by ACD Systems. As with any other piece of software, you are
trusting that the plug-in is free of viruses and that the company that produced the plug-in is trustworthy.
