Description of SAR Image Processor 4.0

Versatile image processor and editing tool

SAR Image Processor is an image editing program for the PC. Most people will want SAR for its enlargement capabilities. See Comparisons of Image Enlargement Methods. Also, SAR has made substantial progress with HDR Tone Mapping. The unregistered program has disabled file saving and printing, but is, otherwise, fully functional. Once the correct registration code is entered, file saving and printing will be enabled.
