  • Mon, 25 Jun 2007 at 5:28 am · I’ve received a number of messages asking when I’ll be ready to release the plug-ins for Photoshop®. The answer: They’ve been ready for release for some time. I’m just contemplating the best way to distribute them, as well as my having thought the new version of Geographic Imager would be coming out by now. Unfortunately, that hasn’t happened, so I haven’t been able to get an idea of how my plugins will help anyone interested. (It’s kind of nice to go forward with a little information, anyway.) And no — these plug-ins are not geospatially capable, like Geographic Imager. If you would like to be able to have Geotiff support in Photoshop, then I’d suggest purchasing Geographic Imager. What my plug-ins do is image processing and production related. · (0)
