When PhotoZoom is opened as a plugin from PaintShop Pro or PHOTO-PAINT, the Open and New Batch commands are not available, since youвЂ™re working with a single image. If you click on the Preset dropdown list, you can use Add Custom Preset to save your settings to use on future images. Once you make any fine-tuning adjustments to a preset, the name of the preset will change to Custom Made. You can move this line left or right to explore differences all across the photo. Each preset has its own default settings that you can adjust for fine-tuning.ДЇor the butterfly photo, we increased the Vividness setting for more color saturation.ДЄnother preview option is the dynamic split preview that has a movable line in the middle. For our butterfly photo we are using the preset Remove JPEG Artifacts вЂ“ Extreme, which makes the edges of the wing crisper. Within each resize method are several presets in the dropdown list. In the Resize Method section, we are using the default S-Spline Max resize method, which is generally the best method for most photos.В You can try out other resize methods to see which one works best for your image. On either side, we can use the Navigation tool to pan to the spot to focus on. Once it is complete, you may find that your preview zoom level has increased quite a bit, depending on the new size and resolution you chose.ДЇor this image, we need to decrease the zoom preview level so that the entire photo is visible and split the preview vertically to make comparisons. Once you have entered your values in the New Size area, you will see a scan line move down your image in the preview window as PhotoZoom processes. We also want to increase the resolution to 300 dpi in this case. In the New Size section, we have the Aspect ratio set to Constrain proportions, so when we enter the new width the height updates as well. The current size is about 3.5 x 5вЂќ, but we want to use this photo for a large print that is 12вЂќ wide.
