Fixx Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 I was wondering if I could recommend associates to purchase AD to prepare simple ads and brochures (so that they would stop pestering me), since it is claimed to have pixel abilities too and possibly could be one stop design app. Vector and type tools are good enough but pixel? So can it do it all, lets see: Import photos -- OK Crop image -- OK Curves/levels -- OK Clone/heal -- NO? Unsharp mask -- NO? Convert to CMYK -- OK, in PDF export Seems clone tools (which are not very important) and sharpening tools (which are important) are missing. Not bad so I guess it is doable. Any thoughts?

Petar Petrenko Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 You will have to recomend APhoto, too. You can't expect one app to have all the bitmap tools. AD is not all-in-one app, sorry. :) Leigh 1 Quote All the latest releases of Designer, Photo and Publisher (retail and beta) on MacOS and Windows. 15” Dell Inspiron 7559 i7 ● Windows 10 x64 Pro ● Intel Core i7-6700HQ (3.50 GHz, 6M) ● 16 GB Dual Channel DDR3L 1600 MHz (8GBx2) ● NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M 4 GB GDDR5 ● 500 GB SSD + 1 TB HDD ● UHD (3840 x 2160) Truelife LED - Backlit Touch Display 32” LG 32UN650-W display ● 3840 x 2160 UHD, IPS, HDR10 ● Color Gamut: DCI-P3 95%, Color Calibrated ● 2 x HDMI, 1 x DisplayPort 13.3” MacBook Pro (2017) ● Ventura 13.6 ● Intel Core i7 (3.50 GHz Dual Core) ● 16 GB 2133 MHz LPDDR3 ● Intel Iris Plus Graphics 650 1536 MB ● 500 GB SSD ● Retina Display (3360 x 2100) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Strangely, although the Effects panel in AD has a Gaussian Blur effect, there is no Unsharp Mask effect. However, there is a Sharpen Brush Tool in the Pixel Persona.
