Adobe® Photoshop® is the industry standard image manipulation tool used for many tasks, from photo retouching to creating posters. One of the most versatile and powerful programs available to the designer, it is essential for a professional finish.
This is true not only because Photoshop is available on a wide array of platforms ranging from Mac to Windows to UNIX, but because after four generations of development, Adobe Photoshop has the most intuitive user interface, the most complete set of tools, and the largest number of reference books around.
Photoshop is widely used to color correct and sharpen scans. It gives us the ability to make great looking reproductions of not-so-great looking photographs and even to repair badly damaged photos. It lets us create whatever we want, from scratch and come out with amazing results.
