Preparing Your Images for the Viewer For best results, it’s important that your prints are formatted and sized properly and printed with a high quality system that minimizes pixelation. In personal printers, we highly recommend the Canon Selphy CP800/900 Desktop Printer that uses a dye sublimation process and sells for only $90 at B & H Photo and Amazon.

“Restoring” the dialog from the template file in the last step will populate the Multi Conversion Dialog with parameters appropriate for converting MPO files from your Fuji W1 or W3 camera to intermediate files that will be further processed with IrfanView (shown below). The end result will be .jpg files that are ready to be printed by a print service provider (recommended) or possibly on your own high quality printer. Of course, alternate workflow and formatting options are possible.

STEP 2: • Start IrfanView • Click: “File->Batch Conversion/Rename…” to see screen shown below: • Click “Advanced” under Batch conversion settings”, you will see the “Set for all images” dialog The “Batch conversion settings” should be set as shown above- don’t worry; you don’t have to set any of this stuff yourself. • Click “Load Settings” (lower left) and browse for the template file: “LPV_IV_Tmplt.ini” and open it; this will populate the variables in dialog box.

Printed images for use with the LPV are formatted as side-by-side pairs, with the left eye image on the left side and the right eye image on the right.

First, find the object that is furthest away in the scene, then select a point on this object in the left image and measure from this point to the same (homologous) point on the same object in the right image. If the print is properly formatted for the LPV this distance will be 65mm or a bit less. The Aspect Ratio (cont.) 2. (Cont.) To crop an image manually use the "Free Cropping Option..." from the pull down on the crop tool in SPM.

The Stereo Window (cont.) The Stereo Window The stereo window is an important concept in stereoscopic viewing experience. If you don’t already understand what the stereo window is and why it’s important, you should take some time and look it up on the internet. If you want to move the window back by cropping off the outside edges, open the finished image (from the directory “Ready2Print”) in Irfanviw and select “Image->Change canvas size...
