Jetraw UI

Jetraw UI is a desktop application for Windows and macOS that provides a graphical interface for managing licenses, device calibrations, and compressing or decompressing TIFF files. For installation instructions, see Installation.

Using Jetraw UI

On Windows and macOS, Jetraw comes with a graphical user interface where you can easily enter and check your license data, install and view device calibrations, and compress or decompress TIFF files.

License setup

To enter your license key:

  1. Open Jetraw UI

  2. Click on the “License” menu item in the left sidebar

  3. Enter your license key in the provided field

  4. The license will be saved automatically to the correct location

For more information about license file locations, see Installation.

Adding device calibrations

To add support for a camera:

  1. Click on “Devices” in the left sidebar

  2. Drag and drop the calibration file (.dat extension) that you received onto the right panel

  3. A new device should appear in the list

The calibration file contains the camera-specific parameters needed for image preparation. For information about calibration file locations, see Installation.

Compressing and decompressing files

To compress or decompress TIFF files:

  1. Open the compression panel by clicking on it in the left sidebar

  2. Drag and drop TIFF files into the file area, or click to browse and select files

  3. Choose the action: compress or decompress

  4. For compression, select the identifier that matches your camera settings (the identifier corresponds to the device calibration you installed)

  5. Choose a destination directory

  6. Click the “Go” button to start processing

Note

In Jetraw UI, noise replacement (image preparation) is done automatically if necessary. When using the command line, two separate commands offer more fine-grained control. See Command Line Interface for command-line usage.

The UI will process the files and display progress information. Once complete, the processed files will be available in the destination directory you specified.

Platform availability

Jetraw UI is available for Windows and macOS. On Linux, only the command-line utilities and development libraries are provided. For Linux users, see Command Line Interface for instructions on using the command-line tools.
