Chapter 2 Getting started
The ACDSee user interface has three main functional areas; the Browser, the Viewer, and Edit Mode.
The Browser displays your photos and files as a list of thumbnail previews that you can resize,
customize, tag, organize, or sort in many ways. The central File List is surrounded by customizable
toolbars and panes, each designed to help you organize and streamline your workflow.
With the Viewer, you can view your photos and media files at actual size, or at any magnification. The
Edit Mode is a powerful image editor where you can quickly fix common problems like red-eye, color
cast, exposure and more. You can also enhance images by adding text and watermarks, or using a
variety of special effects. Many of these editing functions are available in the Batch Processor, a
powerful tool that you can use to apply multiple edits to multiple files, simultaneously.
