With BlueStone, graphics stored in PDF files generated from AutoCad drawings, molecular drawings, photographic images, and more can be extracted and included in presentations or reports - preserving the images' clarity and sharpness.
This allows subsequent re-sizing or expansion without loss of resolution of the image.

BlueStone is available as a software package through SSI's e-commerce channels for under US$50.
Interested parties can access the SSI web site and download the utility on a free trial basis.
Purchase of the product is provided through a secure e-commerce channel.
