5273.0. "Upgrade for ADPro and Professional Conversion Pack " by AMIGA::RIES (MACINTOSH = Machine Always Crashes If Not The Operating System Hangs) Fri Dec 13 1991 15:36

I recently received an upgrade notice for The Art Department Professional.

The upgrade (75$) also allows me to purchase the Professional Conversion
Pack for $45. Does anyone have the Professional Conversion Pack, and if
so, could you let me know what it does and if you think its worth having?

Thanks,
Frank

5273.1ADPRO + PCP - A WinnerGIDDAY::MORANSat Dec 14 1991 06:2920
    
    Gidday frank,
    
    I just upgraded to ADPRO V2.0 and it also comes with patches to upgrade
    hte Professional conversion pack as well as patches for there scanner 
    drivers.
    
    Professional conversion pack (PCP) just gives three new loader/savers
    to adpro. The three formats are: TARGA,TIFF,RENDITION.
    
    These are used mainly on IBM/Macintosh systems so if you have a need to
    convert these are required. I don't use them that much but when I have
    I've never had a problem. The same can be said for ADPRO.
    
    Basically my 2 bit's worth on adpro is:
    
    If you have the memory for it - buy it !!!

    I have used the .TIFF converter with great success. I have processed
    both IBM, and Mac .TIFF files. Problem is when I upgraded too 1.03 they
    broke. ASDG said they'd send me the loaders to work with 1.03, but
    I opted to wait until i got the money for 2.0 od ADPro. I think it is
    one of the best products for image manipulation around. If your into
    graphics, you need this program!

Thanks for the info. I am going to get the ADPRO 2.0 upgrade, but wasn't sure
if I should go for their Pro Conversion Pack offer or not.

    The discount price on the Pro Conversion pack is well worth it.
    I paid full price when I bought mine last year.
