7 Batch Editing and File Management
If you take photos regularly, it can be time consuming to edit all of your photos
as you download them from your camera. And once the photos are on your hard
disk, it can be a challenge to keep them all organized. Picture It! contains tools
that can help you save time with:
■
Routine editing on a batch of photos.
■
File management that helps you keep your photos organized.
Mini Lab allows you to batch-edit photos with tasks such as rotating, renaming,
and cropping. The file browser can help you manage your photos with tasks
like batch rename, batch move, and batch copy.
Batch Editing with Mini Lab
If you have a high-capacity storage medium in your camera, you may have
dozens or more photos to download at once to your hard disk. Some of these
photos may be excellent “keepers” that you will want to spend some time
editing carefully later on. But many of the photos only need a few quick edits:
changes like rotation and removal of red eye.
Opening each photo individually, performing basic edits, and then saving the
photos could take a lot of time. Instead, you can use Mini Lab to perform these
routine editing tasks on many photos at once. In Mini Lab you can select
multiple photos and perform the following tasks:
■
Levels auto fix
■
Rotate
■
Crop
■
Brightness and contrast
■
Fix red eye
■
Adjust tint
■
Save
■
Save as
■
Print
Mini Lab displays all of your open photos, and includes a list of editing options
that you can perform on multiple photos. This picture identifies the main
features of Mini Lab.
