Mark Fitzgerald

over four million users worldwide. Photographers, commercial designers, web developers, artists, students and
hobbyists use Photoshop to innovate, restore, retouch and create images that astound. Skyrocketing laptop sales

you, then this book is for you. Whether you’re on location, in a coffee shop, on vacation or on a business trip, you’ll
ﬁ nd exactly what you need in this full-colour guide. The book ﬁ ts easily into your camera bag or laptop case and
walks you through the workﬂ ow, editing and organising tasks found in Adobe Photoshop CS4. It’s exactly what
photographers need after the shoot.
Adobe CS4 software was released in Australia in October 2008.
