GraphicConverter is computer software that displays and edits computer graphics files. It also converts files between different formats. For example, one can convert a GIF file to a JPEG file.

As of 2008, GraphicConverter could import about 200 file types and export 80.^[1] Images can also be re-sized, rotated and inverted, and minor editing tasks performed, and the software supports standard Adobe Photoshop plug-ins and hence TWAIN. The application includes a batch processor, slideshow mode, image preview browser, and access to metadata comments (such as XMP, Exif, and IPTC).

GraphicConverter is shareware that runs on both the classic Mac OS and Mac OS X and is maintained by the German-based LemkeSoft. GraphicConverter is available in over a dozen languages including English, French, German and Spanish.

The program has a long history of supporting the Mac platform, and at times it has been bundled with new Mac purchases. It is very flexible and supports nearly every graphics format that users are likely to encounter, from files produced on all platforms.
