Ofoto (scanner software)
Appearance
Ofoto was an application program that automated the task of scanning images and cleaning up the resulting digital image. Created by Light Source Digital Images, it was first released in 1991 bundled with the Apple OneScanner. The program garnered rave reviews, and was followed by a color version 2.0 with Mac and Windows versions. Version 2.0 was widely bundled with scanners from a number of companies, notably Canon. Development and sales were discontinued on 1 August 1996.
The assets of Light Source were purchased by Xrite, and the trademark on Ofoto later expired. The name and some of the artwork were later used for the online photography site, Ofoto, later known as Kodak Gallery.
