A–Z vi Photoshop CS4 A–Z &OREWORD Photoshop has been through some amazing changes since we fi rst looked at it on a tiny Apple Macintosh screen last century. It quickly asserted itself as the de facto image editing standard and its feature list grew so extensively that there aren’t enough options on our keyboards to make shortcuts for all of them. Adobe has also addressed fundamental issues like speed, color management and workfl ow, refi ning them to such an extent that Photoshop today can be an unnoticed extension of the creative process – assuming you know how to drive it. What identifi es a skilled Photoshop user is their knowledge of what is possible. Everything we do creatively is limited by what we know or believe can be done. Extend our knowledge of processes and immediately more possibilities arise. Nowhere is this more evident than when you’re sitting down at your computer and looking at your images in Photoshop. Fortunately, by the time we get to play with Photoshop the rocket science is hidden behind a system of clean menus and a few mouse clicks, but even so, it’s essential to have a clear understanding of what you’re doing and why. This is where a book like this comes in handy. No matter how thorough Adobe tries to be with its documentation, it’s still a matter of translating the documentation into a practical reality. And this is where a skilled photographer and writer like Philip Andrews comes in. I have worked with Philip for several years on Better Photoshop Techniques magazine and I am constantly amazed at the breadth and extent of his knowledge about all things Photoshop. Not only does he know how to fi x or alter something, he has half a dozen options to tempt you creatively. There are a lot of great Photoshop users in the world, but fi nding one who is able to explain things in a way that everyone can understand and relate to is an invaluable skill. Philip Andrews stands tall among the best Photoshop educators in the world and I know you’re going to enjoy reading his book. And expanding your range of creative possibilities with Photoshop CS4.

A–Z vii )NTRODUCTION Now in its eleventh release Photoshop is undoubtedly the King of photo-editing software and, considering the host of new and revamped features included in the CS4 version of the program, its position at the top of the heap is assured. The software is so popular with photographers, designers and illustrators that it is truly hard to recall a time when we didn’t have Photoshop at the center of our creative endeavors. With the massive upsurge of digital camera owners there is now a host of new photographers who are just discovering the pure editing and enhancement power afforded by the program. Given the success of previous editions it would have been easy for Adobe to sit back and bask in the refl ected glory of the program’s popularity but instead Adobe has been hard at work improving what was already a great product. The CS4 version, just like the releases before it, is a state-of-the-art image- editing program full of the features and functions that digital photographers and desktop image makers desire the most. In fact, the program has become so comprehensive that producing an illustrated A–Z book like this one is not just a nicety, but has become a necessity. The software covers so many areas that Photoshop users needed a quick ready- reference guide to all the major tools and features. Peter Bargh, in the fi rst few editions of this text, provided just such a comprehensive guide to the program and here I add to his excellent work. As was Peter’s approach, I haven’t stopped at simply describing the tool or feature; I accompany the text with illustrations of the software in action together with before and after pictures of the applied changes. All entries include shortcut keys, menu locations and are cross-referenced to other Photoshop features that relate. Many features also include step-by-step guides to their usage and extended visual examples of the effects of using different settings on your pictures and just as with the last edition I have included a special techniques section that outlines key techniques that you can use with your images. Keep this ready reference handy for all those occasions when you ask yourself ‘What does that do?’ But most of all keep enjoying your digital image making!

A–Z Photoshop CS4 A–Z viii Feature summary Before and after examples Step-by-step application Edge tabs Tips and reminders CS4 features highlighted (OW¬TO¬USE¬THIS¬BOOK The before and after examples illustrate how features, tools and techniques can be used to change the way that your pictures look. There is a completely new step-by-step section at the back of the book designed to demonstrate how to use major tools and features. These mini-tutorials can be used to extend your understanding as well as build your editing and enhancement skills. The colored edge tabs change for each letter section. They can be used in conjunction with the contents page to quickly thumb through the book to locate a particular group of entries. Important ideas and techniques are highlighted with the Remember icon and the tips and tricks used by working professionals are noted with the ‘Pro’s Tip’ ticked box. Each feature and tool entry is headed with a summary table that details the menu where the feature can be found, any keyboard shortcuts associated with the tool, the version of Photoshop that contains the feature and any other features that are linked to the feature. In order to make the most of this book, take a couple of minutes to read the following. This will let me introduce a few of the special features that I have included to help you fi nd the information that you need fast. Apart from the basic A–Z structure that lists the topics, features and tools alphabetically, I have also used the following design devices to make ‘search and locate’ missions speedier and more productive. The entries detailing new or substantially changed or revamped features in Photoshop CS4 are highlighted in red.

Actions are triggered either by pressing one or a combination of keys or selecting the action from the Actions palette (1). Many actions are already supplied with Photoshop and can be found at the bottom of the Actions menu (2) by clicking on the side-arrow at the top right of the Actions palette. An action can be as simple as opening a new canvas or as advanced as creating a drop shadow on an existing picture or, as in our example, making snow. Ready-made actions can be downloaded from the internet, saved to your hard drive and then installed in Photoshop. Use the Load Actions command (3) in the Actions menu to search for and install the downloaded ATN or Photoshop Actions fi le. You can also create your own Photoshop actions using the Record mode, so if there are techniCues you fi nd particularly fi ddly or ones you’ll want to use again, record the commands as you run through them and assign the action a shortcut key. 1. Actions can also be applied to several images in one go using the Batch command or created into droplets. 2. If a command cannot be recorded you can insert it manually using the Insert Menu command. 3. If you make a mistake, keep going, you can edit the script later. 4. Some settings may need modifying for different images. Clicking on the box to the left of the action will stop the script at that point and bring up the dialog box so you can manually adjust before continuing the script. Accented Edges fi lter Menu: Filters > Brush Strokes > Accented Edges Shortcut: Ctrl F See also: Ink Outlines fi lter Version: 6.0, 7.0, CS, CS2, CS3, CS4 The Accented Edges fi lter searches out the edges within a picture and then highlights them with a line. The size of the line is controlled by the Edge Width slider (1) in the fi lter’s dialog. The darkness or lightness of the line is determined by the Edge Brightness slider (2). A high value produces a lightly colored edge that appears like chalk and a low value, like the one used in the illustration here, creates an ink-like outline. The Smoothness slider (3) is used to even out the roughness of jagged edges of the line. ACCENTED EDGES FILTER Please purchase PDF Split-Merge on www.verypdf.com to remove this watermark.
