Features:

Organize everything
Stay on top of your entire collection. Drag and drop photos into Windows® file folders, add keywords and ratings, edit your metadata, and create your own categories. Assign images to as many categories as you like without taking up more space on your computer. Rename, rotate and resize groups of photos at once.

NEW! Get organized right away. Define categories, keywords and create backups and more as you pull images in from your camera or other storage device. When importing is complete, your files are already organized and ready for you to browse and share.

NEW! Easily share photo information such as categories, keywords and ratings, by embedding them in your image?s XMP fields.

Find your favorites
With ACDSee, you'll never lose track of a single shot again, even if you have thousands of photos in your collection. Enter multi-word keywords like ?New Jersey? or ?wedding party?, search only specific folders, and find that one special image with the Quick Search bar.

Use the handy Calendar or Events view to see photos from a birthday party, vacation trip or other special occasion.

NEW! Store your frequently used searches so you can use them again and again.

Picture-perfect memories
Show off photos in their best light. Instantly adjust exposure, fix common problems like red eye and blemishes, and erase distracting objects. Rescue photos that are too light or dark with a single click, thanks to ACDSee?s patent-pending Shadow/Highlights tool. Write text, add a vignette, or apply an artistic effect such as sepia, stained glass, or crayon drawing. You can even adjust a selected area of your photo, such as a single flower or a face in the crowd.

NEW! Let your creativity run wild. ACDSee always saves a copy of your originals so you can restore them at any time.

NEW! Add a finishing touch to your photo with a custom border, drop shadow or edge effect.
