That is precisely what they are for.:-) That and they natively handle Office apps without needing Wine - bc when boss sends you tracked changes, you don't ask them to switch apps, you do instead.

I do like the anti aliasing too, and the Preview program is legit one of the better ones of all time. I doubt it can take the place of ImageMagick entirely, but it does work so very often:-).

Preview and ImageMagick serve entirely different purposes.

Notably, as a PDF viewer, Preview is vastly superior to all Adobe products.

^anything^ ^is^ ^better^ ^than^ ^Adobe...^

Preview and ImageMagick can both be used to view, modify, and convert a range of image formats, among ofc so very many other things.:-)
