ACDSee Pro 3 User Guide
If you have selected the Speed: Use embedded JPEG check box on the General tab of the Options dialog box, ACDSee Pro
displays the embedded JPEG, created by your camera when you took the photo. This is the default setting.
If you have selected the Quality: Perform high quality decode check box on the General tab, ACDSee Pro quickly devel-
ops the RAW file and displays a temporary photo of the RAW file.
When you zoom in on your undeveloped RAW image in View mode, if you have selected the Speed: Use embedded JPEG option,
and if you zoom past the resolution of the embedded JPEG, ACDSee Pro quickly develops the RAW image so that you can see the
image at that zoom level. When View mode changes the display from the embedded JPEG to the decoded RAW image, you might see
a change in the color, light, or detail of the image. This is due to a difference between the settings applied by your camera to the
JPEG and the settings used by ACDSee Pro to develop the image. Since different camera models apply different color, light, and
detail settings to embedded JPEGs, these settings do not always match the settings used by ACDSee Pro. However, you can then use
the ACDSee Pro Develop tools to process the RAW image to use your preferred settings.
