ARetouching Copies

Up to ten effects can in most cases be applied in succession to a single image, although with the exception of Image overlay each option can only be applied once (note that multiple

u edits may result in loss of detail). Options that can not be applied to the current image are grayed out and unavailable.

AImage Quality

Except in the case of copies created with Trim, Small picture, Image overlay, NEF (RAW) processing, and Stop-motion movie, copies created from JPEG images are the same size and quality as the original, while copies created from NEF (RAW) photos are saved as large fine-quality JPEG images. Time stamps added with Custom Setting d6 (Date imprint;

0 160) may however be cropped out or illegible depending on the retouch options used.
