Chapter 6
Using Images
This chapter describes how you can use the images stored in
ImageBrowser in various situations. First, let's begin with how
you can reduce image files so they can be attached to e-mail.
How to send an image in e-mail
1
In the Browser Area, select the image that you want to
send.
You can select several images by using the [shift] key
2
On the [File] menu, click [Create Image for Email].
3
Specify the compression method that you want to apply to
the image.
Use this option when
you do not want to
reduce the size of the
image.

Creating Images for E-mail (1/2)

Normally, we
recommend that you
select this option.
4
Click [Next].
The Create Image for Email dialog box appears. (However, if
you selected the "Send image(s) without compression" option,
the Send Email dialog box appears and you can proceed to
step 7.)
5
Specify the reduction ratio and the image quality.
Specify the image quality.
(The lower the quality, the
rougher the image becomes, but
the size of the file also becomes
smaller.)
6
Click [Next].
The last window appears.
Specify the
reduction ratio
relative to the
original size of
the image.
(50% means
the size of the
image is
reduced by half
both vertically
and
horizontally.)
Use it to check the file size
when you actually compress the
image. (The file size appears
next to "Total Size after
compression.")
