Genuine Fractals 4.0 is a plug-in for Adobe Photoshop and Elements that lets you save time by working in medium-sized original files for high-resolution output.

When using Genuine Fractals 4.0 for large-format print, it's no longer necessary to scan at the output resolution. You need only between 15MB and 25MB of RGB data to capture an image for any size output. For example, you could scan a 4"x5" transparency at 600 dpi to produce a 20MB RGB file, do all your image editing at that scan resolution, then apply Genuine Fractals PrintPro.

For smaller print-quality output, you can start with a 4-5MB original, then render the image easily and beautifully to 20MB.

For screen-resolution output, you can start even smaller.

• Professional Photographers and Photo Retouchers- Genuine Fractals lets you scan your photographs at lower dpi, do your retouching on that manageable-sized file, then enhance the resolution as needed for output. You'll never again need to scan and retouch images multiple times for different print sizes.

• Digital Camera Enthusiasts - Increase your image resolution to produce larger prints of equal quality. For example, if your digital camera produces a nice 4x5 print, you can expect the same quality in an 8x10 or larger print.

• Photo Service Bureaus - You can use Genuine Fractals to transform low-to-medium resolution originals into beautiful transparencies and res-up existing images for all your large-format output devices..

• Stock Photo Providers - You can store your stock images in less space using the Genuine Fractals “STiNG” or .stn file format.

• Digital Artists - If you work in RGB color space, Genuine Fractals is ideal for repurposing your images. You can do all your work in files between 15MB-25MB for any size output. High quality rendering gives you the flexibility to produce thumbnail to poster-sized art from the same original image.
