You can do many things with the images on your Photo CDs:
m Open and view the images individually on your computer screen.
m View the images on your computer screen in a series, as you would view
a slide presentation.
m Copy and save the images, print them, paste them into word-processing
documents or other documents that accept graphics, and edit them with
a graphics application program.
Photo CD images are an excellent source of graphics for desktop
publishing, multimedia presentations, business documents, and
professional-quality graphic design. For more information on working with
Photo CD images, see the “CD-ROM Discs” topic of Macintosh Guide,
available in the Guide [h] menu.
Obtaining Photo CDs
Your own photographs can be recorded as Photo CD images on a Photo CD.
To obtain a Photo CD of your own photographs, take your standard 35-mm
film to a photofinisher who has a Photo CD system. The photofinisher
develops your film, digitizes the photographs, and gives you back a Photo CD
containing your Photo CD images. A single Photo CD can hold approximately
one hundred images.
If your Photo CD isn’t full, you can take it back to the photofinisher and
have more photos added until the disc is full. Such discs are called
multisession discs because they contain images added after the first session.
Your CD-ROM drive can read both single-session and multisession Photo
CDs. (Other CD-ROM drives can read only single-session discs and are
unable to read the additional images placed on a multisession disc.)
