Opening Photo CD files

You can open Kodak® Photo CD™ (PCD) files, including high-resolution files from Pro Photo CD discs.

Note: You cannot save files in PCD format from Photoshop or ImageReady.

To open a Photo CD file:

1. Choose File > Open.
2. Select the PCD file you want to open, and click Open. If the file does not appear, select the option for showing all files from the Files of Type (Windows) or Show (Mac OS) menu.
3. Select options for the source image:
• Pixel Size to specify the pixel dimensions of the image. Keep in mind that the on-screen size of the opened image depends on both the pixel size and resolution you choose. (See Understanding image size and resolution.)
• Profile to specify a device profile for color management. (See Calibrating and creating a profile of your monitor.)
4. Select options for the destination image:
• Resolution to specify the resolution of the opened image.
• Color Space to specify a color profile for the opened image.
• Landscape or Portrait to specify the orientation of the opened image.
