Adding or editing image audio
ACDSee Pro supports images with embedded audio and images with associated audio files.
Images with embedded audio are TIFF or JPEG images with audio saved inside the image file. You can embed audio inside an image
file by adding audio to the image.
Images with associated audio are image files paired with separate WAV audio files. Image files and their associated audio files
contain the same file name and are located in the same folder. You can associate any WAV file with an image file by giving them the
same name and placing them in the same folder, or by adding audio to the image.
If you move or rename either an image file or the audio file associated with it, both files must be renamed and in the same
folder or they will no longer be associated. This does not apply to images with embedded audio.
To add audio to an image:
1. Do one of the following:
Select an image in Manage mode.
Open an image in View mode.
2. Click Tools | Image Audio | Edit.
3. In the Edit Audio dialog box, click the Browse button.
4. Select a WAV file and click Save.
5. If you would like to truncate or clip the audio file, select the Use markers check box, and drag the Start marker and End
marker sliders. Do one of the following:
Click the Truncate button to remove the beginning and end of the audio file (the sections outside of the start and end
markers).
Click the Clip button to remove the section of the audio file inside the start and end markers.
