Getting a Photo into PhotoDeluxe

Adobe PhotoDeluxe works with photos that are already stored as digital files. If your photos are stored on your computer, on a disk, or on CD, or if you are using a camera or scanner connected to your computer, then you are working with digital photos. If your photos are in the form of prints, slides, or negatives, they’re not digital yet. You can make digital photos with a digital camera, scanner, video-capture device, or a digital photo-finishing service. PhotoDeluxe recognizes many kinds of digital photo files and can work directly with many brands of scanners and cameras.
