So, before that, we need to make the first selection, second selection, third selection, and so on. Adobe Bridge has options both for marking with color and star. You can mark your photos as red, yellow, blue, as well as one star to five stars. Later, you can just click on the marking, and Bridge will show you exactly the photos you marked. If you are a photographer, or businessman who works with photos or a freelance photo editor , or have an online studio that makes photos for others, working with photos means having a large collection of photos.
Bridge is the perfect place to manage huge amounts of photos without any struggle. You can keep your photos in so many places on your pc or hard disk. This software will keep track of all your work. Creating metadata is another amazing feature of Adobe Bride. You can call metadata the identity of a photo.
Metadata includes all the information about a photo. Metadata is important to find a photo. This will increase the ranking of your image. You can include tags there too.

For starters, Bridge can display thumbnail previews of all the images in a folder.
Sure, your operating system's file browser can also display thumbnails. But the thumbnails in Bridge are fully customizable. We can adjust the size of the thumbnails in Bridge just by dragging a slider. Bridge can also display more information about an image the file name, pixel dimensions, date created, copyright info, and more below its thumbnail.
Also, Bridge lets us easily change the sort order of the images. We can order images by file name, file type, the date each file was created or modified, or by file size or dimensions. We can also order images by star rating more on that later or some other criteria. And we can manually change the sort order just by dragging the thumbnails around! Along with changing the size of the thumbnails, Bridge gives us other ways to preview our images. The Preview panel in Bridge displays a larger preview of each image we select.
And one of the best features of Bridge is the Full Screen Preview mode. It lets us instantly jump to a full screen view of any image for a closer look! The Review Mode in Bridge lets us sort through an entire range or series of images.
This makes it easy to separate the keepers from the "others". Review Mode lets us quickly cycle through image after image, keeping only the ones we like and dropping the rest! I mentioned that one of the ways we can sort our images in Bridge is by star rating. Bridge lets us quickly apply ratings to our images using a one-to-five-star system.
An image you absolutely love may get five stars, while another image that's "okay but needs work" may get only one star. Other images that are beyond hope hey, it happens to all of us may get no stars at all. Or you can label an image as "Reject" if it's so bad, it's embarrassing.
Along with star ratings, Adobe Bridge also lets us apply color labels to images. A yellow label can indicate images that still need work. Green can be used for ones that have already been approved. We choose the meaning of each color ourselves, so how you use them is completely up to you! Bridge lets us add important copyright information to our photos. And, we can view and edit a whole range of additional information metadata about our images. We can create and apply keywords to our images with Bridge, making it easier for us and others to find those images when we need them.
Bridge can filter images to show us just the photos that meet certain criteria. We can view only images with a five star rating. Or only the images shot with a certain lens, or at a certain focal length.
Bridge can combine photos into collections that make it easy for us to group related images together. Collections can even group images that are scattered across different folders or even different hard drives. And smart collections in Bridge act like dynamic search results.
Smart collections tell Bridge to automatically add any images to the collection if and when they meet the criteria we specify. The Batch Rename feature in Bridge lets us quickly rename multiple files at once.
In the previous tutorial , we learned that we can rename our files in the Photo Downloader as we're downloading them from our camera. But the Batch Rename command is the better way to do it. Batch Rename is more powerful, and it lets us rename our files after we've deleted the ones we don't want to keep.
This means there won't be any breaks in the naming sequence which makes it look like some of the images are missing. As we'll see in the next series of tutorials, Bridge makes it easy to open our images into Photoshop. But Bridge also gives us access to some of Photoshop's powerful image processing commands. Adobe Bridge is also the best way to open images into Photoshop's image editing plugin, Camera Raw. Again, we'll come back to that in the next series, Opening Images Into Photoshop.
And that's a quick run through of some of the main benefits and features of Adobe Bridge. Let's look at some of these features in more detail. We'll start with a general overview of the Bridge interface. Then, we'll look more closely at some of Bridge's key features.
Let's start by learning how to open Adobe Bridge. It may be a companion app for Photoshop, but Bridge is actually its own separate program. We can open Bridge the same way we open Photoshop or any other program on our computer. On a Mac, Bridge is found in the Applications folder. Photoshop does not need to be open for us to open Bridge. But we can open Bridge from within Photoshop.
If you're a Creative Cloud subscriber, make sure you've downloaded and installed Bridge CC before you continue. And here's a quick tip. The keyboard shortcut will switch you back and forth between Photoshop and Bridge each time you press it:.
The Browse in Bridge command will open Adobe Bridge if it wasn't open already. Photoshop will continue running in the background. Here's what the default Bridge interface looks like. We'll look at it more closely in the next section:.
