Adobe Photoshop
Opening


Once PhotoJazz is properly installed, you can use Adobe Photoshop to open any PhotoJazz image file, just as you can for any other image type supported by Photoshop.

Opening: To open a PhotoJazz image with Photoshop:

  1. Select File > Open… in Photoshop to open the Open dialog.
  2. Select the PhotoJazz image file.
  3. Click Open to open the image.

or

  1. Drag the PhotoJazz image's file icon and drop it on Photoshop's application icon in the Macintosh Finder or Windows Explorer.
You can open multiple PhotoJazz images by dragging all their icons (or, on the Macintosh, a folder containing them) onto the Photoshop icon.

or, if the PhotoJazz image was created by Photoshop (creator '8BIM'), in which case it probably has a Photoshop PhotoJazz icon and File > Get Info… in the Macintosh Finder or File > Properties in Explorer says it's a Photoshop document,

  1. Double-click on the PhotoJazz image's file icon in the Macintosh Finder or Windows Explorer.

or

  1. Select the PhotoJazz image file in the Macintosh Finder or Windows Explorer.
  2. Select File > Open.
You can open multiple PhotoJazz images from the Macintosh Finder or Windows Explorer by selecting them all and then double-clicking on any of them or selecting File > Open.

While the PhotoJazz plug-in is decompressing (opening) a PhotoJazz image, Photoshop displays a wait cursor (a spinning watch or an hourglass), or, for very large images, a progress indicator. During this time, you can cancel the Open operation on a Macintosh at any time by pressing Command+Period. Note that Photoshop does not support progressive display during file opening. Photoshop buffers up the entire decompressed image before displaying any of it, and from then on always displays the image from its own cache, only decompressing the image again if you File > Revert to the version in the file. Caching the image can greatly speed up editing and redisplay of images.

If the PhotoJazz image file has been corrupted, whether due to storage medium failure or transmission errors, the data integrity verification feature of the PhotoJazz plug-in will tell you as soon as it detects evidence of corruption.
