Adobe
Systems announced the availability of
Adobe
Photoshop Elements 9 Editor in the
Mac
App Store.
Adobe Photoshop Elements 9
Editor, based on the industry-standard
Adobe
Photoshop, features photo-editing tools that enable users to extend ordinary
photos to professional-quality images.
"The powerful capabilities
in Photoshop Elements 9 Editor complement
iPhoto
perfectly, for users who want to take their photos to the next level with
advanced compositing and stunning effects," said Winston Hendrickson, vice
president of Digital Imaging Products at Adobe, in a statement. "Photoshop
helped pioneer creativity on the Mac, so it's appropriate that this special
edition of Photoshop Elements is Adobe's entry into the Mac App Store."
Photoshop Elements 9 Editor
includes popular editing features available in the full version of Photoshop.
Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 Guided Edits offer step-by-step instructions for
creating artistic effects such as Out of Bounds for making photos leap off the
page, Pop Art for creating retro-style images, or Perfect Portraits for easy
retouching, Adobe said. Users can remove clutter from photos or repair imperfections
with one stroke of the Spot Healing Brush, which uses content-aware technology
adapted from
Photoshop
CS5.
Moreover, to get the best
group shots, Photoshop Elements 9 Editor combines the best facial expressions
from a number of different shots into a single perfect photo, Adobe officials
said. And, the new Adobe Photomerge Style Match analyzes stylistic
characteristics of any photo, such as contrast or color tone, and automatically
applies them to another photo. One-step shortcuts provide quick fixes such as
whitening teeth or creating vibrant blue skies, and automated layout options
quickly showcase selected photos. Users can also create and print customized
calendars, cards and photo books right at home.
Adobe Photoshop Elements 9
Editor can be downloaded for $79 from the Mac App Store.
