Editing photo projects
About photo project edits
In the Edit workspace, you can modify photo collages, greeting cards, and CD/DVD disc jackets and labels. The Create
panel lets you add a variety of frames, textures, backgrounds, and graphics to your projects, as well as apply text effects.
You can also resize, rotate, and move images.
Add images to a photo project
You can add images to a photo project in the Edit workspace. After you add images, you can rearrange, modify, or
replace them.
Photoshop Elements adds all the images in a project to your default catalog.
When you save a photo project, Photoshop Elements saves any unsaved images added to the project. A single-layered
image is saved as a JPEG file, and a multilayered image is saved as a PSD file. Photoshop Elements saves the image as
a copy of the original image in the same location.
Note: If the location is not writable, Photoshop Elements saves the image in %My Documents%Adobe\Photo Creations.
If you relocate the images used in a photo book, missing file icons appear in the photo book instead of the images. Reimport
the images by clicking the ? sign, or reconnect all the missing files in the Organize workspace. After
reconnecting the files, close the project and reopen it.
1 If the photo project is not already open in the Edit workspace, select the photo project in the Elements Organizer
and click the triangle beside Fix > Full Photo Edit, or drag the photo project to the Edit workspace. Images can only
be added to a photo project in the Edit workspace.
2 Choose File > Open. Choose the photos you want to add. If you do not see the images, navigate to where they are
located, and then click Open, which places them in the Project Bin.
3 Select a photo from the Project Bin, and drag it into a frame, which is the gray area inside a layout. To replace an
existing photo in a photo project, right-click the photo and select Replace Photo, and then select an image file and
click Place. You can also double-click an image in the photo project and click the Get New Photo button, or select
another photo from the Project Bin, and drag it into a frame.
Edit photos in the Quick Fix mode
1 In the Edit workspace, right-click the photo and select Edit Quick.
2 Use the various sliders to achieve the results you want.
