Product Description

Now supports Photoshop CS5 and 64-BIT! Genuine Fractals 6 represents onOne Software s continuing commitment to provide photographers with the industry standard for resizing images with no loss in image quality and sharpness. Photographers who need to resize multiple images can now do so in a very efficient workflow thanks to the new Batch Processing feature in Genuine Fractals 6. Based on the Batch Processing Engine developed initially for onOne Software s PhotoTools Professional Edition, photographers can choose which files to resize, change file names, save files to a new location and file type, change and embed a specific color space to the new file and optionally add a customized watermark to help protect the photographers work. tiling feature allows photographers to resize their images to any desired size and then have Genuine Fractals 6 create the necessary documents so that the image can be printed on a smaller format printer. For example if the photographers desired output size is 24 x 30 but their printer can only print a maximum size of 8 x 10 they can use the new tiling feature to break the final 24 x 30 file into a matrix of nine 8 x 10 images that are returned as separate files in Photoshop. Several other features of Genuine Fractals have been improved including the document size presets which make resizing and cropping to fit much easier an improved crop tool that allows photographers to define a crop in any direction as well as additional user experience improvements.

4.0 out of 5 stars Standard tool for resizing digital photos, January 4, 2010

Genuine Fractals has been a leader in digital photo resizing since their first product many years ago. Today, there are other choices, but GF remains one of the best.

Photoshop's capabilities have grown, but I still prefer the results I get with GF. I like Nik Software's solutions, however they seem sensitive to image content - works great on some, not so great on others. Genuine Fractals seems to work well with everything I throw at it.

Note, of course, that to get good results you need to take extreme care in every step of your process, from using sharp lenses and tripods to careful editing, paper selection and color calibration. Don't expect to get pro quality 24 inch prints out of your 5MP point-and-shoot. I routinely take images from my 12.3MP pro DSLR and print as large as 30x40 with reasonable image quality. Even though that works out to barely 100DPI, the resulting print quality is more than sufficient for most uses.

Highly recommended for anyone who needs to "up-rez" digital images.

The product is good and does what it says it will do with high quality. The problem is that i have three computers at home and it will only allow me to put it on two. I have two which I do detail work on my underwater photos and one which travels with me so I am not able to do what I had hoped.
