Getting photos with ACDSee

You can use ACDSee to download images from your digital camera, scanner, mobile phone, or other

removable device. You can also use ACDSee to capture images of your screen and save them as files.

When you connect your digital camera or other device to your computer, ACDSee detects it

automatically with the Device Detector, and prompts you to choose one of the following:

• Acquire images from the device with ACDSee: Select this option and click OK to start creating

a profile for your device. You can then specify naming, storage, and destination options once, and

have ACDSee automatically download your photos to a new directory every time you connect

that device. This is particularly useful if you have more than one digital camera or card reader.

• Do nothing: Select this option and click OK if you don't want to create a device profile, but want

to use the Get Photos Wizard from within ACDSee to copy your photos to a specific directory,

rename files as you copy them, and clear the originals from your device. For more specific

instructions, select the type of device you connected from the list below:

• Getting photos from a digital camera

• Getting photos from a scanner (TWAIN)

• Getting photos from a mass storage device

• Getting photos from a CD

If you are currently working with a tool, the Finished Editing button may be
