File Format Requirements

Only SWF and non-progressive JPG files can be imported.  SWF files don’t have any particular format restrictions, but any attempt to import a progressive JPG will fail. A progressive JPG file uses a higher resolution format in which multiple layers of the image embedded.  When the image loads, it becomes clearer as these layers load.  The Flash Player plug-in used by Icovia does not have the CODEC’s (Encoders/decoders) required to read progressive JPG’s.  If you do have a progressive JPG, you can load it into a image editor and save it to the non-progressive format.  If you don’t have one of the more advanced image editors, this can also be done using MS Paint.
 

1) Load the image into Microsoft Paint, save it as a BMP.

2) Open the BMP and save it as a JPG. 

This will strip out the progressive format information and make the file legible to Icovia.
