Opening Pictures for Editing
With Digital Image, you can open pictures for editing from a variety of sources,
including your computer, storage media, and most cameras and scanners.
Using the file browser
You can use the file browser to locate your pictures and open them for editing.
The file browser can be used to open pictures from a large number of locations,
including the following:
• The hard drive on a computer.
• An external hard drive.
• A digital camera that is a USB Mass Storage Class device. (A USB Mass
Storage Class device works as a “virtual drive,” letting you browse and
open photos from the device as you would from a hard disk or floppy
disk.) Although you can open pictures from a camera in this way, you will
probably prefer to use the Import Pictures feature.
• A card reader.
• A USB drive.
• A photo CD or DVD.
• A floppy disk.
• A network location.
