features
Nondestructive editing
Edit nondestructively with
new Smart Filters, which let you
visualize different image
effects, and Smart Objects,
which let you scale, rotate, and
warp raster and vector graphics
— all without altering the
original pixel data.
Rich painting and drawing
toolset
Create or modify images with
a wide assortment of
professional, fully customizable
paint settings, artistic
brushes, and drawing tools.
Advanced compositing
Create more accurate
composites by automatically
aligning multiple Adobe®
Photoshop® layers or images
based on similar content. The
Auto-align Layers command
quickly analyzes details and
moves, rotates, or warps layers
to align them perfectly, and the
Auto-blend Layers command blends
the color and shading to create
a smooth, editable result.
3D compositing and
texture editing
Easily render and
incorporate rich 3D content
into your 2D composites —
even edit existing textures
on 3D models directly within
Photoshop Extended and
immediately see the results.
Photoshop Extended supports
common 3D interchange
formats, including 3DS, OBJ,
U3D, KMZ, and COLLADA, so
you can import, view, and
interact with most 3D
models.
Movie Paint
Enhance video directly within
Photoshop Extended. Now you can
paint, add text, and clone over
multiple frames of an imported
video sequence.
2D and 3D measurement
tools
Extract quantitative
information from images with
new measurement tools.
Easily calibrate or set the
scale of an image, and then
use any of the Photoshop
Extended selection tools to
define and calculate
distance, perimeter, area,
and other measurements.
Record data points in a
measurement log and export
data, including histogram
data, to a spreadsheet for
further analysis.
Faster, more flexible asset
management with Adobe Bridge CS3
Organize and manage images
more efficiently with
next-generation
Adobe
Bridge CS3
software, which now delivers
improved performance, a Filter
panel for easier searching, the
ability to group multiple images
under a single thumbnail, the
Loupe tool, offline image
browsing, and more.
Better raw-image processing
Process raw images with
increased speed and superior
conversion quality using the
Photoshop Camera Raw plug-in,
which now adds support for JPEG
and TIFF formats; new tools
including Fill Light and Dust
Busting; compatibility with
Adobe Photoshop Lightroomâ„¢
software; and support for over
150 camera models.
Enhanced Vanishing Point
with 3D support
Edit in perspective on
multiple surfaces — even those
connected at angles other than
90 degrees — with the enhanced
Vanishing Point, which also lets
you measure in perspective; wrap
graphics, images, and text
around multiple planes; and
output 2D planes as 3D models.
