As we continue down the road from our recent LEADTOOLS Version 19 April Update, we are particularly excited about the enhancement we're going into more detail about today. As you might see from the title, our engineers were able to speed up the HTML5/JavaScript Medical Viewer.

No, this isn't one of those "it's faster" kind of announcements because we tested it on a new server or installed Google Fiber (technically, that's still under construction but we're kind of excited about that here in Charlotte, NC...back to my point!!!). This is a really big deal, and are talking about improvements of up to 5 - 12 times faster loading speeds! This update loads DICOM images over the web at nearly the same speed as a desktop application.

Even today there are many organizations that rely on fax as a required form of communications. Because of this, receiving faxes is a requirement that much still be met. To do this, many organizations utilize fax services either hosted locally or by a third-party. Many of these services will email received faxes to users as a PDF file.

In a normal facsimile transmission, every other scan-line is skipped. This reduces the amount of data that needs to be sent over the relatively slow connection used to send faxes. To account for the missing scan-lines, the aspect ratio of the pixels is 2:1. It is important to recognize this when displaying the image else you will end up displaying the image incorrectly, making it looked squashed.

When LEAD Technologies set out to create its HTML5 SDK, we wanted to do it right by making LEADTOOLS the fastest and most interactive toolkit available. Thanks to our many customers investing in and developing with this technology, we take that as a vote of confidence that we have succeeded in attaining that goal.

There are many ways to design a zero footprint application, and unfortunately the performance and quality often suffer due to many applications simply pushing all of the image processing to a server. With the LEADTOOLS JavaScript libraries, you can gain all the advantages of zero footprint development without losing the user-friendliness of an application that can provide instantaneous visual feedback.

Recently, we released a huge update to Version 19 which included a new Document Composer. We already wrote about its amazing features, simple interface, and seamless integration with the Document Viewer, and now you can also watch this video to see how easy it is to compose a virtual document on the fly from any number of pages in any order and from multiple source documents.

As part of the LEAD Technologies 25th anniversary, we are creating 25 projects in 25 days to celebrate LEAD's depth of features and ease of use. Today's project comes from Justin.
