Xavier,


You are right, saving the JPG file with Windows file viewer makes the JPG file compatible with Windows XTherion.

The problem is with the use of the "Progressive" JPEG option in GIMP.
Even in GIMP, if you save the JPEG file without the "Progressive"
option, the JPEG file became readable by Windows XTherion.

But the error message is really cryptic:

    invalid name command "ÿØÿà

Who would think this is about an unsupported option when saving the JPEG file ;)


Thanks for your input,

Rodrigo
