Using folders in Adobe Bridge
Adobe Bridge is used for more than just navigating your  le system. Bridge is also used to
manage and organize folders and  les.
1 Click on the tab of the Folders panel in the upper-left corner of the Bridge window
to make sure it is still forward. Then click on the arrow to the left of Desktop so that it
turns downward and reveals its contents.
2 Double-click on My Computer (Windows) or Computer (Mac OS) to reveal its
contents in the center pane of the Bridge window. Continue to double-click on items,
or click on the arrows to the left of the folder names in the Folder panel, to reveal
theircontents.
You can use Adobe Bridge to navigate your entire system, much like you would by using your computer’s directory system.
Managing folders
Adobe Bridge is a great tool for organizing folders and  les. It is a simple matter of dragging and
dropping to reorder items on your computer. You can create folders, move folders, move  les
from one folder to another, and copy  les and folders to other locations; any organizing task that
can be performed on the computer can also be performed in Adobe Bridge. This is a great way
to help keep volumes of images organized for easy accessibility, as well as easy searching. The
advantage of using Adobe Bridge for these tasks is that you have bigger and better previews of
images, PDF  les, and movies, with much more information about those  les at your  ngertips.
