Everything Virtual Archive can do, in one place.
Find any item by donor, location, category, description, or anything typed about it — instantly.
Group items into albums, then click one picture and click another to put it there — no dragging required. Step through the result full-screen, or turn it into a book.
Every picture you attach gets checked in the background for readable text. Find one, and an OCR button appears on the item so you can read it — a scanned letter never just sits there looking like a photo.
Museum mode tracks accession numbers, donor details, and produces a deed of gift ready to print and sign.
Your whole collection backs up to one file, and restores from it just as easily if you ever need to.
The same program and the same collection format everywhere — move between machines freely.
Design a card or report layout yourself in HTML or RTF, using plain labels like #TITLE#, #THUMB# and #DESCRIPTION# — the program fills each one in automatically when it builds the page. A picture label can even go by two names (#THUMB# or #FILENAME#) if that's what feels natural in your layout.
Turn a whole category — up to 400 items, in whatever order you've set — into one HTML page with your own heading and write-up, ready to publish on a website or print to PDF.
Thirteen extra fields you can rename to suit what you're cataloging. A rock collection can ask for Species, Locality and Hardness, while a museum collection right beside it still asks for Contributor(s) and Appraised Value.
One copy of the program can hold several collections, each entirely separate — a historical society and a personal mineral collection can sit side by side without ever mixing.
A photo's location and camera details, when it has them, show right alongside the item — useful for anything you're cataloging straight from a phone or camera.
Point it at a folder of MP3s and it reads the tags for you — filed under Music/Artist/Album, named by track number and title, with the embedded album art as the picture.
