 Catalog-specific settings

Asset management is optional

Although importing your photos to the Library is recommended, it is not required. You can still view and edit photos and

use the RAW file conversion features without adding files to your Library. How? You simply click the File System tab and

navigate to the photos in the Directory View.

When would I not want to import photos?

Here are some examples of cases where you may choose not to import photos:

 If you simply want to see what photos are on a memory card or other storage device. For example, if you want to grab

a few RAW files from your friend's memory card, you can use the File System tab to find and view the photos. You can

then copy only the photos that you want to your computer and import those photos.

 If you already have an asset management application and don't want to replace it. For example, perhaps you have

third-party software that copies and builds an image folder structure.

 If you have many photos that you need to import and you simply want to get started quickly.

Features available after importing photos to the Library

After you import your photos to a catalog in your Library, you have full access to the following features:

 Browsing multiple folders — select multiple folders and view all the thumbnails in the folders and subfolders in one flat

view.

 Full editing history — an editing log is maintained for every change that you make to photos and versions over time. If

you do not import your photos, the edit log is maintained only for the current session (the log is cleared when you exit

the application).

 Image search — find images by searching for filename, EXIF, IPTC or other metadata.

 Metadata browsing — browse through your catalog using EXIF, IPTC or other metadata.

 Image stacks — group versions from one or many master files together into stacks.

 Offline image browsing — find and manage images that are stored on offline media like CDs, DVDs or external hard

drives.

 Initial image settings — Corel AfterShot Pro stores the first set of adjustments found for every image when you import.

This lets you quickly revert to these settings at any time. The Initial Settings might be the same as the Default Settings,

or they might be different because they include any edits or adjustments made in Corel AfterShot Pro before importing.

Understanding the export process

Exporting takes the previews that you see in Corel AfterShot Pro and creates new image files that you can print, share on

the web, or use in other applications. Since Corel AfterShot Pro is a non-destructive image editor, the image adjustments

and optimizations you create in Corel AfterShot Pro are only accessible to other applications when exported to standard

file formats, such as JPEG and TIFF.

A batch lets you export one or more images and lets you customize the output. For example, you can rename the files as

they are processed and change the file type. There are two main types of batch operations:

 File Output batches — convert versions to a new image file that can be accessed by any other application.

 Copy Output batches — lets you copy the master files. This option lets you copy or move files from one location to

another. You can also perform many of the same actions as you can with File Output batches.

Exporting images

File Output batches

Corel AfterShot Pro comes with several batch output presets to convert the versions you create to standard file formats.

You can customize any of these batches.

The following batches have been created for you:
