Ulead GIF ANIMATOR 4.0 User Manual page 5

GIF Animator, while primarily a post-production tool, does give you the capability to work on
image layers directly within the program. You can perform minor touch-ups and edits right on
an image layer, rather than having to open it in an outside image editor.
Edit mode lets you add, remove and adjust the pixels in each image layer. It can help you clean up the
residue from bad scans, or adjust the color and lines that you want to emphasize on an object. The Edit
toolbar also contains tools for manipulating your image layers. The Crop tool pares away excess portions
of an image and the Resample tool resizes your animation, just to name a couple.
Additionally, GIF Animator supports APS 32-bit plug-ins: any plug-in that you can use in PhotoImpact,
Photoshop and Paint Shop Pro can now be used directly within GIF Animator for enhancing image layers.
GIF Animator comes with more than 30 custom video filters and effects, borrowed from Ulead's award-
winning MediaStudio Pro, and is also capable of both importing and exporting video files.
