You can copy photos from a CD or DVD onto
your hard disk and into the Organizer. You can make full-resolution
copies, as you might for editing purposes, or, to save disk space,
low-resolution offline copies called preview files.
In the Organizer, select File > Get
Photos And Videos > From
Files And Folders.
Navigate to your CD or DVD drive, and select the photos
you want to copy.
(Optional) Select either of the following:
Copy files on import
Makes a full-resolution copy of the file on your hard
disk.
Generate previews
Makes a low-resolution copy of the file on your hard
disk, saving disk space.
(Optional) If you’re keeping a master photo offline,
type in a volume name for the CD or DVD on which it resides, and
write this name on the disc itself. This will make it easy for you
to find and download the master when prompted.
(Optional) Select Automatically Fix Red Eyes if you would
like Photoshop Elements to repair red eyes as soon
as the photos are brought into the Organizer.
Note: This option is not enabled for offline files.
(Optional) Select Automatically Suggest Photo Stacks
if you would like Photoshop Elements to group visually
similar photos, letting you decide whether to place any such groups
into stacks.
Click Get Photos to bring your photos into the Organizer.
If the photos contain keyword metadata, the Import
Attached Tags dialog box appears.
Note: A preview file has the
CD icon in
its thumbnail. Its file location refers to the drive into which
the CD containing its master file was inserted.
