Graphic Inspector is a quality control solution for both raster and vector graphic files on Mac OS X. The program is designed to help users of any trade, whether it's print, web, prepress, publishing or digital photography. With Graphic Inspector, users can quickly get crucial information about entire folders of files thus eliminating the need to open and check each file manually. Graphic Inspector will display info about file's kind, color mode, resolution, compression, color profile, dimensions, spot colors, fonts, EXIF data and other attributes.

The Checkup Presets lets users quickly spot files with unwanted attributes saving hours of manual checking and helping eliminate costly mistakes.
