the content below to discover more about handy editing, the ImageWell way! Please also be sure to
check out our online user guide which contains screencast tutorials, easy to follow instructions, and tips

Basic Editing
Many of us often have a need for quick resizing, cropping and sending our images somewhere across
the Internet or saving these images to our computer for future use. Sometimes we may even need to
edit our images and send them directly to a presentation slide or a document for illustrative purposes.
But opening Photoshop or any larger program isn't exactly the best or most efficient solution. That's
where ImageWell comes in:
• Drag & Drop your image into the well
• Slider bar or numerical controls for resizing on the fly
• Rename the image or generate a random filename
• Quick Crop & indestructible crop
• Watermark, Rotate or Screen Grab with a couple clicks
• Convert the file to jpg, tiff or png
• Adjust the jpg compression and view the file size
• Double-click the image to web preview it
• Instantly send it off to the selected location
Don't want to send it the web? You can simply drag and drop your edited image directly onto a
presentation slide, a web page inside of your web authoring tool or any other document you're working
on. You can also just drag and drop it into an email message. You can drag and drop from the main
window or from the web preview window.
Batch Processing
Quickly scale and export a group of images all at once. Drag and
drop a folder of images from your computer or a folder from iPhoto
into the main ImageWell window. Then use ImageWell to resize,
watermark, convert the file type, and export an entire folder of
images all at once. You can also apply a template to add style
attributes to all of your images in one shot!
Screen Grabs & Labels
If you need to provide others with "how to" illustrative diagrams or your job requires a certain level of
instruction such as online tutorials, technical support services, user manuals, or other training materials
via a company intranet, ImageWell's screen grab tools and labeling features let you do this in a snap:
• Screen grab selection, full screen grab, grab an application window, and timed screen
• Automatically imports into the image well for instant editing and sending
• Add some text labels, arrows, and circles.
• Send or drag and drop your newly labeled diagram to the desired location.
• Use the URL Copy feature to quickly paste the link into an email message to notify others of where
they can access your document.
Your students, colleagues, customers and peers will love you for it! They'll think you put a lot of time
and energy into providing them with helpful documents, while all along you'll know that with
ImageWell, it only took you but a minute!
