Irfanview is only free for non-commercial use. Business users should pay a trivial license fee.

From the Usage Agreement

"IrfanView is provided as freeware, but only for private, non-commercial use (that means at home).

IrfanView is free for educational use (schools and universities) and for use in charity or humanitarian organisations.

If you intend to use IrfanView at your place of business or for commercial purposes, please register and purchase it. I want to continue working on this program, therefore, your registration will be an incentive for me to add new functions and increase the program's quality.

Any suggestions, feedback and comments are welcome and won't be ignored.

If you are a commercial user and you like this program (or are a home user who wants to support/donate further development), please register/donate by sending US$ 12.00 or EUR 10,- (this is the price for one (single) licence) to the address below."

If that is your need, another tool called Irfanview--also free
software--is much more convenient.

In fact, Irfanview is one of the best image viewing programs out
there, free *or* commercial. It also has a host of other features
including those you used for your example. It makes all sorts of image
work trivial and fast...and now works with some other multimedia files
as well.

As the web page puts it, with Irfanview you can: "view, convert,
optimize, scan & print, create slideshows, batch processing, play
movies & sounds, and many, many more."

If you are not familiar with it, I strongly recommend you check it
