PAX-it! 

With PAX-it, adding annotations or “videotext” to your PAX-it images is easy. Simply click on the appropriate icon on the videotext toolbar and draw right on the image to produce overlays of circles, arrows, text, and more. The annotation tools allow you to easily highlight features or mark up an image as an aid in communicating with others.

Image annotations are stored as an overlay in PAX-it so that your original image is never altered. PAX-it will automatically save your changes so that you don’t have to continually resave your images. Some of the annotation tools include: • Text—all Windows fonts are available • Lines • Arrows • Ellipses • Boxes • Free Form Drawing • Automatic Date/Time Stamp • Transfer of the ID Tag Information • Creation of templates to automatically apply text to multiple images or to images as they are captured • Scale bars for measurements • & more

Image annotations are easy to do with PAX-it Click on Image to Enlarge Multiple levels of undo & redo Grouping of annotations to edit & move multiple items at once Ability to copy annotations to the clipboard for pasting on other images. Ability to select custom color defaults for each type of annotation.

Since the annotations are stored on an overlay, the original image data is maintained and not overwritten when annotations are produced. As a separate overlay file, videotext annotations can be easily edited or deleted even months or years after they are in place. They can also be “turned off” so that the original unmarked image can be viewed. Overlays are printable in reports using the PAX-it report generation feature, and overlays may be saved and designated as templates for applying to multiple images! Measurements from the PAX-it measurement module function like the rest of the annotations.
