Apple Power Macintosh 4400 - Manual (Page 71)

You can do many things with the images on your Photo CDs:
m open and view the images individually
m view the images 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 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.)
Before viewing the contents of a Photo CD
You can open Photo CD images with the Simple Text program that came with
your computer. If you wish, you can use a graphics or image-editing program
instead of SimpleText. For instructions, see the “CD-ROM Discs” topic of
Macintosh Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu. If you use SimpleText to
view high-resolution images, you should increase the amount of memory that
SimpleText uses. For more information about memory, see the “Memory”
topic of Macintosh Guide, available in the Guide (h).
