ArcSoft Cut-It-Out(TM)
Adobe(R) Photoshop(R) Plug-in for Creating Selection Masks.
LAS VEGAS --(Business Wire)-- Mar. 9, 2007 ArcSoft, Inc. announced the
release of ArcSoft Cut-It-Out(TM) today at the PMA 2007 Convention.
Cut-It-Out is a new plug-in for Adobe(R) Photoshop(R) that allows users
to separate objects in digital photos from their backgrounds, creating
a mask. The segmentation technology provides a fast and accurate
solution for complex object extraction.
"Creating pro-level photo editing masks may now be achieved with
unprecedented time savings and ease-of-use," said Michael Downs,
ArcSoft Vice President of Marketing and Business Development. "The
Cut-It-Out plug-in gives users a preview of our high-end photo editing
technology offerings which we will be expanding over the course of the
year."
Similar in functionality to Photoshop's Extract command, Cut-It-Out
offers superior speed and accuracy in selecting object details from
image backgrounds. For example, wispy hair or intricate tree leaves are
both difficult and time-consuming to isolate with other methods;
Cut-It-Out has an easy-to-use interface that provides both quick,
excellent precision and options for fine-tuning the object extraction.
The plug-in works with Windows versions of Adobe Photoshop 6, 7, 8, and
CS, and with Photoshop Elements.
Users interested in using Cut-It-Out with their digital photos may also
want to download the free ArcSoft RAW Thumbnail Viewer(TM) plug-in.
Released earlier this year, the free plug-in allows users to see
thumbnails of virtually all RAW photo formats right within the
"Thumbnails" view of Windows Explorer -- instead of the generic icon
that Windows displays by default -- enabling people to browse and
manage their most important images without having to launch special
software.
Pricing and Availability
ArcSoft Cut-It-Out(TM) is offered for retail purchase for US$99.99. More information is available at http://www.arcsoft.com/products/cutitout
