AKVIS Retoucher v.3.0. New Life for Old and Damaged Photographs

June 2008 – AKVIS LLC announces the release of AKVIS Retoucher plug-in
v.3.0 for Windows and Macintosh. The plug-in allows restoring damages
photos by removing dust, scratches, stains, and by reconstructing the
lacking parts of a photo. New to version 3.0: bugs fixed; improved
compatibility with Photoshop Elements 6 for Windows and Macintosh versions.
Added support for Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard). Upgrade for registered users is
free.

Few things in life stir our memories and emotions the way photographs do.
Unfortunately, as time goes by, old photographs fade out, get stained, or
get otherwise damaged. In order to preserve them, many people try to
digitize photos to pass these cherished images on to future generations.

AKVIS Retoucher plug-in restores damaged photographs to optimal condition
with minimal effort and amazing results. Surface defects such as scratches,
water spots, flakes and stains can be removed automatically, just select
the defects and run the program. The wide variety of capabilities are
demonstrated at http://akvis.com/en/retoucher/examples-image-restoration.php

Moreover, the software is able to reconstruct the lacking parts of a photo
using the information of the surrounding areas. You can, therefore, restore
a torn photo or a photo with some parts missing.

AKVIS Retoucher is a handy tool for improving the composition of your
photos. You can remove date stamps, logos, small irrelevant details (wires,
refuse bins, etc) and even big objects (i.e. people who fell into the shot
by accident, cars in the background). If you need to increase the canvas
size (from one side or proportionally) to bring the main object into focus,
i.e. to center it, AKVIS Retoucher will help you to extend image patterns
to the blank areas of the canvas.

New to version 3.0: Bugs fixed; improved compatibility with Photoshop
Elements 6 for Windows and Macintosh versions; improved compatibility with
Windows Vista. Added support of Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard).

The application is straightforward and can be used by amateur photographers
who have never performed retouching/image restoration before. The program
comes with a game-like tutorial, so any person can master the program
within minutes.
