Editing an image in an external application
You can use Contribute to start an external image-editing application. You can make simple edits directly in
Contribute, using the image editing toolbar (see "Editing an image in Contribute" on page 106).
Note: When you edit an image in Contribute, Contribute creates a copy of the image you are editing, so edits affect only
this instance of the image. When you use Contribute to edit an image in an external application, you edit the original
image source file, so these edits affect all instances of that image on your website.
To edit an image in an external image-editing application:
Do one of the following:

• In the Contribute browser, click Choose in the toolbar, select the image you want to edit, and then click OK. When
the image opens, click Edit in the toolbar.
• In the Contribute editor, select an image, and then select Format > Edit Image in External Application or right-
click (Windows) or Control-click (Macintosh) the image, and then select Edit Image in External Application.
Note: The image you select should be on a published page on your website or in one of your website folders. If you add
a new image to a draft, you cannot edit that image in an external editor until it has been published to the website.
Contribute starts an application for you to edit the image.
