Undoing Mistakes

Changes you make don’t always look right the first time. Use the following strategies to correct mistakes in various situations:

■You can undo the most recent change by clicking the Undo button on the toolbar. When you have a choice between clicking Undo and correcting the mistake manually, click Undo—it is faster and will preserve more image quality than making a second change over the first. However, you can undo only the most recent change.

■If you’ve already made too many changes to undo, but have not saved the photo since making the unwanted changes, choose the Revert to Saved command from the File menu.

■If you’ve applied a change but PhotoDeluxe isn’t finished processing it (for example, you see the progress bar at the bottom of the photo window), you may be able to cancel the operation by pressing the Esc key.

■To close a dialog box without applying changes, click Cancel. If you already clicked OK and you don’t like the changes, click the Undo button.

NOTE: To compare the two versions of a photo before and after you apply an effect, click Undo repeatedly. This alternates between the two versions.

Adding Text

You can add text to a photo using the Text tool. You can color, move, resize, and distort text. If you use PostScript® or TrueType™ fonts, text stays sharp and smooth as you resize and distort it. When you send the file to another format, text is included with the photo.

NOTE: For text features to work properly in PhotoDeluxe, you must have installed Adobe Type Manager, which is part of the PhotoDeluxe installation process.

To add text:

1. Click the Text button () on the toolbar in the photo window.
