Easily Access Full Editing Power
Take greater advantage of all that Adobe® Photoshop® CS4 offers with a more intuitive user interface and features that put you in control.

  • Revolutionary image editing
    • Adjustments panel: Simplify image adjustment by easily accessing every tool you need to nondestructively adjust and enhance the color and tone of your images; on-image controls and a wide variety of presets are also included in the new live and dynamic Adjustments panel.
    • Masks panel: Quickly create and edit masks from the new Masks panel. This panel offers all the tools you need to create editable pixeland vector-based masks, adjust mask density and feathering, easily select noncontiguous objects, and more.

Achieve Amazing Results
Bring your vision to life with industry-leading tools that let you enhance images and create composites that help meet your highest standards.

  • Nondestructive editing
    • Smart Filters: Experiment by adding, adjusting, and removing filters from an image without resaving the image or starting over to preserve quality. Nondestructive Smart Filters allow you to see the changes without altering original pixel data.
    • Smart Objects: Perform nondestructive scaling, rotating, and warping of raster and vector graphics with Smart Objects. Even preserve the editability of vector data from Adobe Illustrator® software.
  • Professional color and tone control
    • Industry-leading color correction: Enjoy dramatically enhanced color correction with reengineered Dodge, Burn, and Sponge tools that now intelligently preserve color and tone details.
    • Black-and-white conversion: Instantly convert color images to black-and-white with easy-to-use presets, and then make on-image adjustments of tonal values and tints to immediately see the results. Even create and save your own custom presets.
    • Channel Mixer: Take advantage of a host of presets in the Channel Mixer to create high-quality grayscale, sepia tone, or other tinted images.
    • 32-bit high dynamic range (HDR) support: Combine multiple exposures into a single, 32-bit image that preserves the full range of a scene - from the deepest shadows to the brightest highlights. Image processing and alignment algorithms deliver superior results.
  • Intelligent image editing and enhancement
    • Richer painting and drawing toolset: Create or modify images with a wide assortment of professional, fully customizable drawing tools, paint settings, and artistic brushes. Simply drag to resize brushes and adjust for hardness as you paint and preview brush strokes.
    • Expert retouching: Retouch images more easily and precisely by previewing source pixels within the cursor of the Clone Stamp and the Healing Brush. Set multiple source points, scale, and rotate in the Clone Source palette.
    • Perspective-based editing: Create packaging mockups and more with Vanishing Point, which lets you create multiple planes in an image, connect them at any angle, and then wrap graphics, text, and images around them.
    • Content-Aware Scaling: Use the new and revolutionary Content-Aware Scaling feature to automatically recompose an image as you resize it, smartly preserving vital areas as the image adapts to the new dimensions. Get the perfect image in one step without time-intensive cropping and retouching.
  • Advanced compositing
    • Extended depth of field: Combine a range of images, each with a different exposure, color, and focal point - with options to preserve tones and colors - into a single color-corrected image.
    • Flexible layers: Achieve sophisticated results by superimposing images, text, and effects on hundreds of layers. Organize layers with up to five levels of nesting, and save them in different combinations as Layer Comps.
    • 360-degree panoramas: Automatically stitch horizontal or vertical photos to create seamless panoramas - even 360-degree spheres - using Photomerge® technology.
    • Auto-alignment of layers: Create accurate composites with the enhanced Auto-Align Layers command. Move, rotate, or warp layers to align them more accurately than ever before. Or use spherical alignment to create breathtaking panoramas.
    • Auto-blending of images: Easily create a single image from a series of shots that have different focal points with the enhanced Auto-Blend Layers command, which smoothly blends color and shading and now extends your depth of field, automatically correcting vignettes and lens distortion.
    • Quick Selection tool: Loosely draw on an image area and the Quick Selection tool automatically completes the selection for you. Then use simple sliders to preview and refine your selection.

Work More Efficiently
Be more productive by taking advantage of smooth integration with other Adobe software and enhancements that leverage the power of today's faster graphics processors.

  • Efficient and flexible work environment
    • Panel management: Maximize your screen space while keeping essential tools accessible. Arrange panels in convenient, self-adjusting docks that can be widened to full size or narrowed to icons or even a thin, self-revealing strip at the edge of your monitor.
    • File display options: Easily work with multiple open files by using tabbed document display or n-up views.
    • Efficient file management with Adobe Bridge CS4: Get instant access to Adobe Bridge CS4 with faster start-up, use new workspaces to jump to the right display for every task, easily create web galleries and PDF contact sheets, and more.
    • More powerful printing options: Get outstanding prints with superior color management, tighter integration with leading printer models, and the ability to preview out-of-gamut image areas. Support for 16-bit printing on Mac OS offers increased color depth and clarity.
    • Customized workspaces: Set up and save custom menus, keyboard shortcuts, and workspaces for quick access to exactly what you need.
    • One-click color adjustments: Make sophisticated color adjustments instantly with one-click presets in Curves, the Channel Mixer, and the Black and White conversion dialog box.
    • Fluid canvas rotation: Now just click to smoothly turn your canvas for nondestructive viewing at any desired angle - no more tilting your head in the middle of painting and drawing.
    • Smoother panning and zooming: Gracefully navigate to any area of an image with new, ultra-smooth zooming and panning. Maintain clarity as you zoom to individual pixels and easily edit at the highest magnification with the new Pixel Grid.
    • Higher performance on very large images (Windows only): Work faster with very large images by taking advantage of even more RAM (requires a 64-bit-capable computer with a 64-bit version of Microsoft® Windows® Vista®).
    • Multi-Touch support on Mac laptops: Pinch, swipe, rotate, zoom, and scroll with just the touch of your fingers by taking full advantage of the Multi-Touch trackpad on newer MacBook Pro and MacBook Air laptops (requires Mac OS X v10.5).
    • Profiles to support the color-blind: Design with sensitivity for color-blind individuals by creating soft proofs of your images using built-in Color Universal Design Organization profiles.
  • Streamlined workflow
    • Better raw image processing: Enjoy superior conversion quality as you process raw images with the industry-leading Adobe Photoshop Camera Raw 5 plug-in, which now offers localized corrections, post-crop vignetting, TIFF and JPEG processing, and support for more than 190 camera models.
    • Adobe PDF file support: Precisely control the size of PDF pages opened in Photoshop; add security controls and metadata, such as copyright and exposure details, to images within PDF presentations; and create a rich image display in PDF presentations and documents.
    • Improved Adobe Photoshop Lightroom workflow: Select multiple photos in Adobe Photoshop Lightroom® software (sold separately) and automatically open them in Photoshop CS4 to merge them into a panorama, a high dynamic range (HDR) photo, or a multilayered Photoshop document. And seamlessly roundtrip back to Lightroom.
    • Automated production: Automate routine production tasks in a variety of ways. Set up event-based scripts, record a series of steps as an Action for efficient batch processing, and design repetitive graphics faster with Variables.
    • History panel and Edit History log: Undo and redo any set of editing steps in an open image with the History panel, and automatically track all editing steps within your files with the Edit History log. Export steps to a text file or save them as part of image metadata for easier documentation of your work, file audits, and more.
    • Broad file format support: Import and export hundreds of file formats, including PSD, AI, PDF, NEF, CRW, TIFF, BMP, Cineon, JPEG, JPEG2000, FXG, OpenEXR, PNG, and Targa.
    • Mobile device support: Create compelling mobile content, such as wallpapers and screensavers, and then visually preview how it will render on mobile devices using the built-in Adobe Device Central CS4. Tune your designs for mobile screen sizes and lighting conditions.
    • High-resolution web display: Take advantage of Adobe Flash and Zoomify technology to export high-resolution images to the web for viewing via the Adobe Flash Player runtime. Flash Player displays your image quickly and efficiently, letting viewers zoom in on details with minimal delay.
  • Online services
