Adobe Bridge
Adobe® Bridge is a cross-platform application included with Adobe® Creative Suite® 4 components. Adobe Bridge
helps you locate, organize, and browse assets for print, web, video, and mobile content creation. You can start Bridge
from most Creative Suite components, and use it to access both Adobe and non-Adobe assets.
From Adobe Bridge, you can:
• Manage image, video, and audio files: Preview, search, sort, and process files in Adobe Bridge without opening
individual applications. You can also edit metadata for files, and use Adobe Bridge to place files into your
documents, projects, or compositions.
• Manage your photos: Import and edit photos from your digital camera card, group related photos in stacks, and
open or import camera raw files and edit their settings without starting Photoshop.
• Work with Adobe Version Cue®-managed assets.
• Perform automated tasks, such as batch commands.
• Synchronize color settings across color-managed Creative Suite components.
