New Features in Stuffit 2010

StuffIt SmartSend

SmartSend takes the guesswork out of sending large files via email - simply select the files you want to send, and choose "Stuff & Mail" from the MagicMenu in the Finder's menu bar. Small files are automatically compressed and attached to a new email message, while larger items are automatically uploaded to a secure website via StuffIt Connect. Instead of receiving a large file that might clog up their inbox, or worse not arrive at all, your friends, family, and co-workers will instead receive an invitation via email. Clicking the link in the email will automatically launch a web browser and connect your recipient to a download page that has been specially created for your file. Say goodbye to email bounce backs forever! StuffIt Deluxe 2010 provides you with a year of StuffIt Connect completely free of charge.

SmartSend can also be configured to take advantage of a user's existing FTP or MobileMeSM account.

StuffIt Connect

StuffIt Deluxe 2010 includes exclusive early access to a new file transfer and storage service. Be one of the first to experience the fast, easy, and secure way to share your files. Store up to 2 GB worth of files, and share them with friends. Once your files have been uploaded, you can safely and securely allow access by sending out email invitations that share the files you've posted on a file-by-file basis. An invitation to download one of your files can be set to expire after a date you specify, and you can choose to manually cancel an invitation at any time. The files you upload can be encrypted using StuffIt's strong encryption technology, and you can also password protect the download links that will be used to access your files.

StuffIt Connect offers all the convenience of a cloud based Internet service. You can access your account from any Internet connected Mac, PC, or Linux computer without having to install any StuffIt software. You can also access your files, and even share them with others, from the browser on your mobile phone! StuffIt Deluxe also includes a handy iPhone client that helps you to manage all your StuffIt Connect shares.

Create Disk Images (DMG)

StuffIt Deluxe now creates disk image files (DMG) directly from MagicMenu. Simply select the files you want to add to a disk image, and choose "Create Disk Image" from the MagicMenu.

Improved Compression

StuffIt Deluxe 2009 set new standards for data compression, and StuffIt Deluxe 2010 raises the bar even higher. StuffIt Deluxe 2010's improved image compressor now compresses high-quality TIFF or PNG files. StuffIt dramatically reduces the size of your images without compromising their visual quality. The integrity of your images' data is perfectly preserved during the compression and decompression process. What you get when expanding a StuffIt compressed image is always a pixel-perfect replica of the original version of the file. Whether you're looking to send out a project for review or simply looking to back up your files, StuffIt Deluxe 2010 can get both done for you more quickly than ever before.

I regularly send large files. By 'large', I mean 8 to 10 million records. Even under the best FTP situation, this meant sitting and watching that little bar creep across the screen... wasn't too bad, I developed the habit of going to get a cup of coffee. Thanks to StuffIt, sometimes a transfer is done before I return with a fresh cup of coffee. My solution? Move the coffee pot closer. If StuffIt compresses files any smaller, I'll have to move the doughnuts closer too!
