History:
10-17-2011:
Modified the command-line support to accept wildcard character asterisk in input
specification.
Example: JPEGtoPDF.exe "C:\Output.PDF" "C:\Images\*.*"
10-09-2011:
Fixed an issue with conversion to a single PDF, which would limit the PDF page
size to a max of 17"x17".
09-02-2011:
Fixed a setting not saving correctly (saving opposite) for page size (image size
versus specific size).
Minor fixes. Conversion might be a little faster now.
The file list does not allow duplicate entries. Perhaps this should be
changed..
08-22-2011:
Fixed the "Browse for Images" dialog not matching image types with their
extensions correctly.
07-28-2011:
When determining the number of pages in an image, .JPG files (and all
variations) will be treated as single-page images.
07-19-2011:
If the program is saving a single PDF, and that filename does not end in .PDF,
the program will now automatically add the file extension.
07-15-2011:
Added support for Windows 9x.
06-08-2011:
Added buttons for Move Selection Up, Move Selection Down.
Fixed one line that was missing a condition for .JPF files.
05-13-2011:
When saving as a single PDF file, the program will now check if the output file
already exists, and will prompt the user to overwrite the file.
04-13-2011:
Added support for .JPF files (an extension for jpeg2000 I was not aware of).
The program now correctly retrieves the resolution setting in .JP2 and .JPF
files.
03-22-2011:
Fixed a bug in the folder validation/creation function, which may have only
affected some versions of Windows.
02-28-2011:
If the specified output path does not exist, the program will now create it,
instead of failing to convert.
02-25-2011:
Added an option to enlarge images to fill the page area.
Cleaned up some file permissions (only opening the image files as Read-Only, in
case they are open elsewhere).
Added some better error-handling for situations such as Could Not
Create/Overwrite PDF file (because it's probably open in Acrobat).
11-22-2010:
Removed a .Net 2.0 SP2 dependency. So now the ServicePack2 is no longer
required.
Fixed a bug in JPEG2000 to PDF conversion.
07-02-2010:
The command-line interface now returns an exit-code. 0 for success, 1 for
failure.
06-26-2010:
The program now saves and restores the settings.
05-19-2010:
Added support for converting multi-page images.
04-15-2010:
Updated code to support files larger than 2gig.
02-26-2010:
Files dropped onto the list will now be sorted before being added to the list.
02-22-2010:
Added options for Units of Measure. The program now supports Inches,
Centimeters, and Millimeters.
The 'Browse for Folder' window now contains a 'New Folder' button.
02-19-2010:
Changed the default output path from C:\ to the users Desktop folder.
The interface can now be resized.
When writing multiple PDFs, the original image extension will now be preceded by
an underscore, instead of a period.
02-18-2010:
Added support for unicode filenames.
Rewrote the CommonDialog code using managed .Net objects.
Cleaned up the interface a little, to fix font issues with Windows 7.
Added a 'Clear List' option to the right-click menu.
Added .EMF and .WMF to the supported file types.
Previously:
Added support for image formats other than JPG.
Rewrote the program in VB.Net 2005.
