A new filtration job will be created. Initially, you will be offered to select an input image and then
the Filtration Job Editor window will be opened with this input image. You will then be able to
select a device noise profile and adjust filter settings in the same way as explained above in the
Filtration process details section, page 9.
When the image is ready to be processed, do not apply filtration in the Filtration Job Editor if you
want to process the image in the queue.
When the input image, noise profile and filter settings are
ready you can put this new job into the filtration queue for
processing using the controls in the Queued Processing
box.
Clicking

of the queue and let Neat Image process it when its turn
comes in the queue.
You can also select to Auto save output image and specify Output image file name for auto save
using the […] button. If you do then Neat Image will automatically save the output image into the
specified file as soon as this job is completed in the filtration queue.
Neat Image may ask about the place where it should save the output image. It may also ask about
particular image saving properties, e.g., the JPEG compression level. The last used JPEG
compression level is offered as the default value.
When Auto save is chosen, you can additionally select to Auto delete completed job from the
queue when the job is completed and its output image is successfully saved.
