Graphic Converter continues as the exemplar for all shareware, and for most commercial publishers, too.

Most recently GC's customer support has induced me to praise it, and GC's author, again. I asked a question about a function I had never before used, and why a particular feature wasn't included. The polite, concise response from Herr Lemke himself said all I need do is upgrade to 5.2.1 to discover that feature added to Graphic Converter.

His valuable assistance was provided on the weekend, leading me to guess that he has no backlog of inquiries, that GC rarely confuses or stymies its multitude of users.
