HOW IT WORKS<br />

Follow these instructions to add a natural effect to an image using <strong>AKVIS</strong> <strong>NatureArt</strong>:<br />

¡ Step 1. Run the standalone edition of <strong>AKVIS</strong> <strong>NatureArt</strong> or open your photo editor (if you work<br />

with the plugin version of <strong>AKVIS</strong> <strong>NatureArt</strong>).<br />

¡ Step 2. Open an image.<br />

- If you work with the plug-in:<br />

Open an image in your photo editor by calling the command File -> Open or using the key<br />

combination Ctrl +O ( +O on Macintosh).<br />

- If you work with the standalone edition:<br />

The dialog box Select file to open appears if you double-click on the empty workspace of<br />

the program or if you click on the button on the Control Panel. You can also drag<br />

the required image into the workspace of the program.<br />

The Standalone edition of <strong>AKVIS</strong> <strong>NatureArt</strong> supports JPEG, RAW, PNG, BMP, and TIFF<br />

file formats.<br />

in the image window.<br />
