FotoStation Pro Description

An application for people who work professionally with digital assets FotoStation Pro has been designed for people who work professionally with digital assets. FotoStation Pro is a tool that puts you in command whether you work alone or in a large organization, and whether you have just started building an archive or need a fast, powerful solution to organize you existing one.Here are some key features of "FotoStation Pro":· Advanced searching and retrievalFotoStation Pro features a powerful search tool that lets you perform advanced, multi-archive searches where you can specify file attributes and additional search options to narrow the search· Drag and DropUse it to organize your archives and actions within the program, or to drop files to an external program. Using the Crop and Drop feature you can instantly crop & resize images upon dropping it into Microsoft, Adobe and other relevant publishing applications. · Captioning of filesTailor the text editor to suit your needs! The FotoStation Pro text editor can be customized to include exactly the fields you require. The text editor’s layout and available fields also change depending on the type of file being captioned. Create and apply text templates using an advanced macro tool, or import and apply an XMP template from an external file. The text editor can also make use of the auto-complete and spell-checking capabilities of Microsoft Office, if installed. · Handling of digital camera filesAcquire files from any media and add them to a job automatically, then fill in a description to make the job easier to retrieve later. You may even create a job prior to an assignment, print the job description and add files or images to the job later. Acquired files can also be stored directly in an archive or processed using an action, for instance to convert raw format files from a digital camera to an industry standard format such as TIFF, JPEG or EPS. · PrintingFotoStation Pro provides a number of predefined print templates, and you may create your own to incorporate a company logo and layout. You may also have FotoStation Pro automatically create a layout for you by simply selecting a number of images and choosing the number of rows and columns you would like. The print functionality can be incorporated in actions, for instance to print a list of files that have been copied from a production archive and put to use in a publishing system.· ProjectsCreate collections of files using projects! Files from different locations can be collected in projects and shared with other users on the network. Flags allow you to set a visual indication of a project’s status, and you may also add a suitable project description. Easily apply your own custom sort order in a project. Simply select one or more images and drag them into the desired position.· Data MiningData Mining is the quick and intelligent way of finding your images without the need to formulate a search for them. With a ‘Word list’ approach you can find all images with the same content in a selected text field (XMP). Just click on for instance ‘Keywords’, and view all pictures containing the same keyword. The ‘Calendar’ approach allows you to easily view by calendar dates or range of dates. · Offline StorageInsert a CD-ROM and let FotoStation Pro index its contents. You may archive the contents of any type of removable media, or a WAN volume for that matter. The offline archive is fully searchable, and FotoStation Pro will prompt users to retrieve the correct media when the original file is required. Create an offline archive “on the fly” when you burn a CD from FotoStation Pro (using the “Write CD” action).· Image EditingUse FotoStation Pro to easily correct the color balance in your images! In Edit mode you will find several tools similar to those found in Adobe Photoshop, such as hue and saturation settings, curves, manual color balance adjustment and automatic setting of white and black points. FotoStation Pro also lets you set gray balance, and has a useful anti-red-eye function. · Smart CleanBy reducing noise with SmartClean it is possible to create images with more color saturation and contrast. The software library contains a highly efficient and flexible photo noise reduction engine based on state-of-the-art technology developed under supervision of professional photographers. The process can be performed manually, or automated by a simple mouse click!· Color ManagementFotoStation Pro has fully integrated Color Management. Use ICC profiles to ensure correct display of thumbnails and previews in your archive. Using an action you can tag an image with a profile to ensure correct rendering of colors throughout the production process.· Workflow-orientedActions allow you to carry out a host of operations at the click of a button. Configure an action to apply a text template, resize images to fit a certain layout, upload files to a web server, or choose from a number of other available options. Several processes can be carried out in sequence to help automate your workflow. · Advanced CroppingFotoStation Pro enables you to perform advanced cropping. Using the crop function, you can either soft-crop or real-crop and resample images. Soft-cropping is much like masking the image and setting its output size.· SortingFotoStation Pro gives you more than 70 different options to choose to sort from. Files in an archive can be sorted according to a number of criteria. The three basic sorting methods are by file name, modified date and camera date. However, you may choose from a wide range of options by clicking the drop-down list to the right of the search field. Images may for instance be sorted according to similarity, or by the content of a chosen XMP text field. Requirements: · Screen size 1024 * 768.
