W wW 301 Photoshop CS4 A–Z Fluorescent Tungsten Daylight Custom Cloudy Auto As Shot 1 WIA support Menu: – Shortcut: – See also: Import command Version: 6.0, 7.0, CS, CS2, CS3, CS4 The process of downloading pictures from your digital camera to the computer requires the installation of camera drivers before the transfer can begin. Installing the software that came bundled with your camera usually also takes care of installing the drivers. Many cameras use a WIA (Windows Image Acquisition) driver to connect to software that resides on the computer. Both Photoshop and Windows XP make use of WIA drivers to communicate with a range of installed devices. This feature has largely replaced the older TWAIN import option found in earlier versions of Photoshop. White Balance, Raw Menu: – Shortcut: – See also: Camera Raw 4.0 Version: 6.0, 7.0, CS, CS2, CS3, CS4 One of the real advantages of recording your photos in the Raw format is the ability to edit the white balance settings used for the pictures later on at the desktop. Though the setting used to capture the image is recorded as part of the EXIF data you can elect to fi ne-tune this setting or even disregard it altogether selecting a different setting to associate with the picture. The White Balance option in the Camera Raw dialog (1) provides a series of preset options designed to match specifi c light sources. As well as these set options the Temperature and Tint sliders allow users to customize their white balance settings for a given image. Controlling the white balance setting is one way to remove color casts in your photographs. Alternatively, intentionally choosing the wrong setting can be used to create dramatically different versions of your pictures as well. WHITE BALANCE, RAW W wW Photoshop CS4 A–Z 302 1 2 Wind fi lter Menu: Filter > Stylize > Wind Shortcut: – See also: Filters Version: 6.0, 7.0, CS, CS2, CS3, CS4 The Wind fi lter, as one of the group of Stylize fi lters, simulates the look of wind blasting across the canvas surface by adding trailing lines from the edge details. The dialog contains two controls, Method of type of wind (1) and Direction (2). A preview window is also supplied to help you judge the correct combination of settings for your photo. Window – Options Menu: Window > Options Shortcut: – See also: View Version: CS3, CS4 Photoshop CS3/CS4 include an Options entry in the Window menu. Selecting or deselecting this option will either display or hide the options bar which sites just below the menu bar at the top of the Photoshop workspace. Window – Tools Menu: Window > Tools Shortcut: – See also: View Version: CS3, CS4 The Tools entry in the Window menu was fi rst introduced in Photoshop CS3. Selecting this option will display the toolbox (this is default setting of the entry). Unchecking the Tools entry will hide the toolbox. WIND FILTER W wW 303 Photoshop CS4 A–Z 2 1 3 1 2 Workgroup Menu: – Shortcut: – See also: Version Cue Version: CS, CS2, CS3, CS4 As part of the process of creating a new project in Version Cue you have the option of allowing the project, and its associated media assets, to be shared with others in your network (1). Typically the group of users who collaboratively work on a common project is called a Workgroup. Determining who has access and at what level this access is granted is managed via the Version Cue administration utility. Here the administrator of the project can add new users and alter their access settings (2). Version Cue is only available to Creative Suite users. Working spaces, ICC profi le Menu: – Shortcut: – See also: Color Settings Version: 6.0, 7.0, CS, CS2, CS3, CS4 Unlike print, monitor, camera or scanner profi les, a working profi le or space is not linked to specifi c input or output characteristics. Instead a working space acts as an intermediate profi le that provides a base for editing and enhancing picture colors and tones and also establishes a known reference point for these tones and colors when converting to other output specifi c spaces. The ICC profi le that you choose to use as your working space should refl ect the requirements of the area that you work in the most. For instance, many photographers whose work is destined for the printed page choose to use the AdobeRGB profi le as their working space feeling that this space best suits their work environment. In contrast web designers often prefer to use sRGB as their working space as it refl ects the characteristics of screen-based display more easily than other choices. The options in the Edit > Color Settings dialog allows you to set the working spaces that will be used in Photoshop for RGB, CMYK, Gray and Spot (color) pictures. Also in this dialog are controls (Color Management Policies) that govern how Photoshop handles opening pictures that are not tagged or tagged with a profi le that is different to the one nominated for the working space. Work Paths, converting selections to Menu: – Shortcut: – See also: Paths, Selections Version: 6.0, 7.0, CS, CS2, CS3, CS4 Many imaging workers steer away from creating paths because they feel that the tools needed to create and edit them (Pen and Direct Selection tools) are diffi cult and confusing to use. These same workers on the other hand often have no problem with using the various selection tools to create very sophisticated selections. If you fall into this category and need to create a path quickly and easily then the best approach is to start by making a selection (1) . Next, display the Paths palette and then click on the Make Work Path from Selection button (3) at the bottom of the palette. This automatically converts the selection to a path and places a thumbnail version of the path in the palette (2). WORK PATHS, CONVERTING SELECTIONS TO W wW Photoshop CS4 A–Z 304 NEW for CS2 File Navigator workspace Lightbox workspace Filmstrip Focus workspace NEW for CS2 1 Metadata Focus workspace 2 1 1 2 Workspace, Photoshop Menu: Window > Workspace Shortcut: – See also: Workspace customize, Workspace Bridge Version: CS2, CS3, CS4 Photoshop ships with a range of preinstalled workspaces (1) which can be located listed under the Window > Workspace menu. Each of these settings controls the appearance and position of palettes, the allocation of keyboard shortcuts as well as the appearance of menu items. Also listed in this menu are entries for resetting the workspace and saving customized workspace settings that suit your individual way of working. Customized spaces are created by adjusting the settings in the Keyboard Shortcuts & Menus dialog (2) and arranging palettes before saving the setup via the Window > Workspace > Save Workspace option. The newly created workspace then becomes a separated entry at the bottom of the Workspace menu. Workspace, Bridge Menu: Bridge: Window > Workspace Shortcut: Ctrl/Cmd F1 – F6 See also: Workspace customize, Workspace Photoshop Version: CS2, CS3, CS4 The way that your photos are displayed in Bridge can be altered via the options listed under the Window > Workspace menu (1). Here you can choose from fi ve set workspace settings plus a reset setting or choose to save the current workspace as a custom setting. Workspace, customize Menu: Window > Workspace > Save Workspace Bridge: Window > Workspace > Save Workspace Shortcut: – See also: Workspace Bridge, Workspace Photoshop Version: CS2, CS3, CS4 Both Photoshop and Bridge contain options to customize and save specifi c workspace setups. When a workspace is saved the custom setting is added to the list of available workspaces that is displayed in the Window> Workspace menu (1). To create your own custom space in Photoshop or Bridge start by adjusting the size and position of interface components such as palettes and panels. Next, select the Save Workspace option from the Window > Workspace menu and then enter the name and select the options to save in the Save Workspace dialog (2). Photoshop CS2, CS3 and CS4 have the additional benefi t of being able to customize the keyboard shortcuts associated with the space and the appearance and contents of menus as well. This is achieved via the Keyboard Shortcuts & Menus dialog.

Information such as author, camera, resolution, color space and keywords are all stored in this format and for the most part the details are saved within the picture fi le itself, but when this is not possible the data is included in a separated sidecar fi le. The presence of this information makes searching, sorting and managing of your pictures much easier as XMP is a key technology used in many features in Bridge and other applications in Adobe’s Creative Suites. The XMP detail that is linked to your fi les can be viewed in Photoshop via the File > File Info dialog (1) or by displaying the Metadata panel (2) in Bridge (View > Metadata Panel). XMP is not the only metadata that can be stored with your fi les. Details may also be attached in EXIF, GPS and IPTC formats. When this occurs Adobe applications such as Photoshop and Bridge synchronize and describe this metadata in XMP in order to ensure better integration with applications features. XMP XMP sidecar fi les Menu: – Shortcut: – See also: XMP Version: 6.0, 7.0, CS, CS2, CS3, CS4 In some situations a portion of the XMP- based metadata that is stored with a picture is not saved in the fi le itself. Instead the information is stored in an XMP fi le that is saved with the original photograph (1). This extra fi le is called an XMP sidecar fi l e ( 2 ) . One example of the use of sidecar fi les is the settings changes made when processing a fi le in the Camera Raw feature. The user can elect to save these changes settings in the original fi le or with the fi le in a sidecar format. Where the detail is stored can be set in the preferences for the feature, which can be selected via the Preferences entry in the pop-up menu displayed by pressing the side-arrow next to the Settings menu in the Camera Raw dialog. The Edit > Camera Raw Preferences dialog in Bridge 2.0 provides a clearer choice for setting up sidecar fi les. The ‘Save image settings in’ menu provides the options of using the Camera Raw database or Sidecar fi les for storing the development settings (3). 3 XYZ 306 XYZ Photoshop CS4 A–Z 1 2 3 4 Zoom In Original Zoom Out ZigZag fi lter Menu: Filter > Distort > ZigZag Shortcut: – See also: Filters Version: 6.0, 7.0, CS, CS2, CS3, CS4 The ZigZag fi lter, as one of the group of Distort fi lters, simulates up and down waves such as pond ripples. The dialog contains controls that adjust the style and intensity of the effect. The Amount slider (1) alters the strength of the ripple effect, which basically translates to the depth and height of the resultant waves. Low values create shallower, more subtle effects; higher numbers produce more dramatic results. The Ridges slider (2) increases or decreases the number of ridges used in the effect. Three different types of ZigZag fi ltration are available from the drop-down Style menu (3) – Pond ripples, Out from the center and Around the center. Also included is a simulated preview window, where the fi lter is applied to a wire frame representation of your picture (4). Zoom In/Zoom Out Menu: View > Zoom In/Zoom Out Shortcut: Ctrl/Cmd = Ctrl/Cmd - See also: Zoom tool, Navigator Version: 6.0, 7.0, CS, CS2, CS3, CS4 The View > Zoom In/Zoom out menu options magnify and reduce the size of the onscreen image in a way that is similar to the Zoom tool. Each selection of the menu item (or keystroke combination) changes the magnifi cation of the image by set increments between a minimum of 1 pixel (usually less than 1%) and a maximum of 3200%. ZIGZAG FILTER Zoom to 3200% Menu: View > Zoom In Shortcut: Ctrl/Cmd + See also: View Version: CS3, CS4 New for Photoshop CS3/CS4 is the ability to zoom in to a magnifi cation of 3200%. At this level the pixels that make up even a high resolution image like the example are clearly visible. Original Zoomed to 3200% XYZ XYZ 307 Photoshop CS4 A–Z 1 2 3 Zoom tool Menu: – Shortcut: Z See also: Match Zoom, Navigator Version: 6.0, 7.0, CS, CS2, CS3, CS4 The Zoom tool is used to adjust the magnifi cation of your picture on screen. After selecting the tool from the toolbar, choose a mode, Zoom In (1) or Zoom Out (2), from the settings in the options bar. Next click onto the picture part that you want to magnify, or make smaller. The onscreen image will increase, or decrease, in size and the magnifi cation value will be displayed in the title bar of the document window (3). Sections of a picture can be zoomed to fi t the width of the program’s workspace by click-dragging a zoom marquee around the area to be enlarged. Automatically the selected area is enlarged to fi t the workspace. ZOOM TOOL Zoomify Menu: File > Export > Zoomify Shortcut: – See also: ZoomView fi les Version: CS3, CS4 In CS3 and CS4 the Export > ZoomView option has been replaced with the Export > Zoomify feature. The feature works in a similar way to its predecessor in that it allows photographers to display high quality versions of their high resolution images on the internet. Unlike ZoomView, though, Zoomify doesn’t require an additional viewer to be installed to view the resultant web pages. The image tiles that are combined to make it possible to zoom and pan across the high resolution image are created in industry standard JPEG format and the containing page and navigation controls are built with HTML and Flash. The functionality and look of the viewer can be customized by editing the Flash source code fi le (FLA fi le). After opening the picture that you want to convert to a high resolution web format, select File > Export > Zoomify. Adjust the settings in the Zoomify Export such as the Output location, Image Tile Options, and Browser Options. To complete the process click the OK button at the top of the dialog. This will start the process of creating the tiled image fi les, web page and navigational components of the zoomify site. Full screen zoom High resolution using Zoomify XYZ 308 XYZ Photoshop CS4 A–Z Standard view 1 ZoomView format Menu: File > Export > ZoomView Shortcut: – See also: ZoomView fi les Version: 6.0, 7.0, CS, CS2 The ZoomView fi le format is designed for delivering high resolution images over the internet. Photoshop users can convert their pictures into this format by selecting the File > Export > ZoomView feature. Pictures in this format can only be displayed when the free Viewpoint media player (www.viewpoint.com ) is installed. Once installed the user can then zoom and pan high resolution photographs that have been saved in the ZoomView format. ZOOMVIEW FILES Zoomed in view 1 2 3 4 ZoomView fi les Menu: File > Export > ZoomView Shortcut: – See also: ZoomView format Version: 6.0, 7.0, CS, CS2 The Export to ZoomView feature allows image makers to save their pictures in an innovative high resolution web deliverable format that allows both panning and zooming from within the browser window. To convert your pictures to the viewpoint format open the fi le in Photoshop and then select File > Export > ZoomView (1). The Viewpoint ZoomView Save dialog is then displayed (2). Choose to include instructions with the web page (3), select the location where the ZoomView fi les will be saved, input the base fi lename, allocate a tile size and level of quality, and the dimensions that the picture window will be when displayed in a browser, and click OK. The feature creates two folders and two associated fi les including the main page or HTML fi le (4). The Export to ZoomView option has been replaced with the Export to Zoomify command in Photoshop CS3. 309 Step by step Photoshop CS4 A–Z IMPORTING PHOTOS INTO BRIDGE Finally, choose what other actions Bridge will take after downloading the fi les.
