Turbine can display images in GIF, JPEG, PNG, TIFF and BMP formats. Any transparency (on GIF images) or alpha channel (on PNG images) settings are respected and displayed accordingly when outputting to Flash. The following example loads images from several formats:

The Flash movie above was created from the following Turbine MML tags:

<Text pos="0,50">flower.gif:</Text>
<Image pos="0,72" src="../common/flower.gif"/>

<Text pos="240,50">flower.jpg:</Text>
<Image pos="240,72" src="../common/flower.jpg"/>

<Text pos="480,50">flower.png:</Text>
<Image pos="480,72" src="../common/flower.png"/>

<Text pos="120,240">flower.tif:</Text>
<Image pos="120,262" src="../common/flower.tif"/>

<Text pos="360,240">flower.bmp:</Text>
<Image pos="360,262" src="../common/flower.bmp"/>

Quality and Effects

Individual quality settings can be used for each image to create smaller sized, tuned Flash movies or PDF documents, as well as different resample factors and effects like smooth, alpha colors or grayscale:

The above Flash movie is based on the next MML tags:

<Text pos="0,50">flower.gif - resized to 30x20:</Text>
<Image pos="0,72" src="../common/flower.gif"
resample="30,20" size="225,150"/>

<Text pos="240,50">flower.jpg with a grayscale fx:</Text>
<Image pos="240,72" src="../common/flower.jpg"
fx="grayscale"/>

<Text pos="480,50">flower.png with 50% smooth fx:</Text>
<Image pos="480,72" src="../common/flower.png"
fx="smooth(80)"/>

<Text pos="120,240">flower.tif - 10% quality:</Text>
<Image pos="120,262" src="../common/flower.tif"
encoding="jpeg" encodingQuality="10"/>

<Text pos="360,240">flower.tif - 95% quality:</Text>
<Image pos="360,262" src="../common/flower.tif"
encoding="jpeg" encodingQuality="50"/>
