PICTools™ Document
An Image Processing Control/Component for C/C++
This software development kit (SDK) provides imaging technology designed to enhance document imaging, records management, and forms processing applications. PICTools Document contains low-level C libraries providing the fastest compression and decompression engines and the most powerful document image cleanup capabilities available. It provides total control over image manipulation, compression, decompression, and conversion.

PICTools Architecture
The PICTools software architecture consists of a shared library (the "dispatcher") that loads operation specific shared libraries ("opcodes") for modular, discrete functionality. One major advantage to the use of this architecture is the ability of Pegasus to rapidly port opcodes to different processors. Each opcode begins as an ANSI "C" coded library. This library is then optimized for the target chip using assembler and processor-specific optimizations. The dispatcher is ported to "new" operating systems by implementing the code-loading functionality of each OS. PICTools’ dispatcher / opcode architecture facilitates a la carte opcode usage in a consistent interface across opcodes and operating systems.
PICTools Document includes a combination of opcodes containing individual feature sets. Each opcode allows the user to perform specific functions. PICTools is licensed per opcode used. See the detailed list of available features (PICTools Document Opcodes).
