Archive Creator (AC) is a Windows based program that is designed to simplify the task of archiving large groups of files to CD-R/RW, DVD-R/RW and DVD+R/RW. Its design is such that when such a group of files (the Archive Set) is too big to fit onto 1 CD or DVD it will automatically span the Archive Set across multiple discs thereby maximizing the disk storage potential of the media while minimizing the time required to organize the files in an efficient manner. While its design is generic in nature, the primary target market for AC is the digital photography market based on the fact that the serious digital photographer generates large amounts of large image files of large size. The ability to easily archive their "digital negatives" and processed work is critical.

In addition, during the archive process, Archive Creator is able to make an HTML "Web Style" Photo Index of the image files within the Archive Set. This Photo Index of the entire Archive Set is written onto each of the media in the Archive Set. This is extremely powerful as you can then view the thumbnails and viewing images from the entire Archive Set from any one of the CDs or DVDs. This means that later if you are looking for an image, you can insert any of the media discs from the Archive Set and find the image that you are looking for without having to shuffle media until the time you actually find the desired photo file and wish to copy it to your HD or open it in an application (and only then if it is not on the CD or DVD that you are viewing).

This HTML Photo Index and Archived media (CD or DVD) are supported by both Windows and Macintosh platforms and does not require any special software to be on the computer except for Internet Explorer or Netscape Internet Browsers (we are compatible with most versions of Netscape with some limitations). We use no Java or JS coding, just pure HTML so that no special software is required on the viewing computer. And the Index is created even from most RAW file types, as well (Nikon, Canon, Olympus, Minolta, Fuji, Sigma and others).
