8. Using Adobe PhotoDeluxe
Adobe PhotoDeluxe is an image editing application that provides guided activities for easy image
manipulation. With PhotoDeluxe and your scanner, you can easily create cards, calendars, touch up
photos, change backgrounds, and much more. Your scanner will scan photographs into PhotoDeluxe and
PhotoDeluxe will walk you through the scanning/image editing process. PhotoDeluxe provides activities
that would take hours in other programs. Image editing is made easy.
For complete information see the following topics: “Scanning a photo” and “About scanners and
digital cameras” in on-line help.
Intro Tabs
The buttons shown to the left organize all of the activities in PhotoDeluxe into
categories. Clicking on this icon will bring up a series of tabs that have all of the
activities that PhotoDeluxe has templates for (shown below).
Guided Activities folders
Inside of each folder are numbered
tabs which will guide you through the
image editing process. Clue cards
will assist you by providing you with
information about each step.
Pictured above is the Select Input Source menu that shows you all the selectable drivers for PhotoDeluxe.
You will see this interface when you click on the down arrow – located below the scanner icon. Please
select VistaScan 32 then click OK. You will only need to select VistaScan once unless you choose to
change your scanner driver.
