The Image Loader works like a wizard, in which a succession of screens are presented to help you navigate the process of importing image files. In addition, two optional dialogs — Preview and Crop the Image — are available to preview selected data and to change the dimensions of the images that will be imported.
A large number of file formats are supported by the Dragonfly Image Loader — standard image files, raw data, TIFF stacks, and a number of proprietary file formats (see Supported File Formats). These files can be imported from local and network drives, or from storage devices such as CDs, DVDs, and USB keys.
