MAM Utils | FAQ

SDZeCOM MAM Utils extend Centric PXM™ MAM/DAM with a range of practical functions for working more efficiently with image data.
These enhancements allow you to show and hide clipping paths in PSD and TIF files, display the number of paths and path points, or apply individual image processing commands—for example, via ImageMagick—directly.
This adds valuable tools for quality control, image editing, and automation to digital asset management.
