Using the Filter panel
If you have ever been in the position where you knew you put a  le into a folder, but just can’t
seem to  nd it, you will love the Filter panel.
Using the Filter panel, you can look at attributes such as  le type, keywords, and date created
or modi ed, in order to narrow down the  les that appear in the content window of
Adobe Bridge.
Find  les quickly by selecting
di erent criteria in the Filters panel.
Automation tools in Adobe Bridge
Adobe Bridge provides many tools to help you automate tasks. In this section, you will learn
how to access and take advantage of some of these features.
Automated tools for Photoshop: Web Photo Gallery
If you want to share images online, you can use the Web Photo Gallery, which creates a web
site that features a home page with thumbnail images and gallery pages with full-size images.
You select the images you want to include in the site and Adobe Bridge does the rest, from
automatically creating navigation images, like arrows, links, and buttons, to creating Flash
 les. This is a fun feature that you can take advantage of quickly, even if you have no coding
experience. If you have coding experience, or if you want to edit the pages further, you can
open the pages in Adobe Dreamweaver or any other HTML editor to customize them.
1 Make sure that you are viewing the contents of the br01lessons folder. If you do not
see the contents of the br01lessons folder in the content window in Bridge, choose the
Favorites panel and click on Desktop. Click on the br01lessons folder. If you stored the
lesson  les elsewhere, use the navigation tools in Bridge to locate your lesson  les.
