To edit a menu in Photoshop
As your project evolves, you may want to change elements in a menu. Adobe Encore DVD is designed to work
directly with Photoshop. Without closing the project, you can jump to Photoshop to refine any menu, even menus
created in Adobe Encore DVD. Once you save the changes in Photoshop, the changes automatically appear in Adobe
Encore DVD.
Select the menu that you want to edit in either the Project or Menus panel.

Choose Edit > Edit Menu In Photoshop, or click the Edit Menu In Photoshop button
Photoshop starts, displaying the selected menu.
Make changes as necessary.

In Photoshop, choose File > Save, and then File > Close.
Photoshop saves the file to the project folder. It does not overwrite the original file that you imported into your
project.
Note: When you import a menu into Adobe Encore DVD, it creates a copy of the menu. The Edit Menu In Photoshop
command opens this copy, not the original file. Photoshop saves any changes to the copy. If you want to update the
original as well, be sure to first save the copy so that your project contains the revised menu. Once the copy is saved, you
can also save changes to the original file by choosing File > Save As in Photoshop or Menu > Save Menu As File in Adobe
Encore DVD.
