Editing Software Lets You Retouch Digital Pictures.(INTERNET & TECHNOLOGY)(COMPUTERS MADE PLAIN)
Byline: Russell Shaw
You've used your digital camera to take photos at a family outing. After transferring the photos to your computer, you see that several of your best shots were ruined by sun glare.
Or maybe you shot a close-up digital photo for a sales brochure. Then you realize the photo reveals a patch of facial hair that the razor missed that morning.
All isn't lost. You may be able to use photo-editing software to fix these unsightly problems.
Popular photo-editing utilities include Microsoft PhotoDraw, a beginners' program that's bundled with some copies of Microsoft Office; the $99 Adobe Photoshop Elements from Adobe Systems Inc.; and Jasc Software Inc.'s Paint Shop Pro, a slimmed-down photo-edit package that costs about $100.
The best-known professional-level programs are the $609 Adobe PhotoShop from Adobe or the $550 CorelDraw and $300 PhotoPaint, both made by Corel Corp.
"There are several things the amateur user can get out of image-editing software," said Rick Altman, who has written several books about photo-editing tools.
