How to Print Printing is very easy in Capture NX. You can select Print from the File Menu at any time to print the current image, or you can select multiple images from within the Browser to create a Print Package. Print Packages are essentially a collection of images printed at the same time, often with more than one image appearing on the same page. Print Packages make the most out of your printer and paper, enabling you to create proof sheets so that you can review and select images based on the output, rather than the computer monitor. 23 Batch Processing Batch Processing is the automatic application of one or more enhancements to a series of images. Typically a photographer will use a batch process to apply a predefined series of adjustments to several images at once. Capture NX supports a number of batch processing methods. You can run a traditional Batch Process, selecting a folder of images and a Settings File to apply to those images, you can copy and paste your enhancements from one image to another, or you can select multiple images in the Browser and apply a Settings File or paste some enhancements directly to those images. One method of applying a batch process is to create a Settings File that contains a series of enhancements to apply to your image. Chapter 5 Creating a Settings File Getting Started Once you have selected Print from the File Menu, you can identify how to color manage your prints and whether or not you want to create a Print Package. For a complete description of the various settings within the Capture NX Print dialog, please see page 117. Settings Files consist of a series of instructions that Capture NX can use to enhance one or more images in the future. Settings Files are created by identifying enhancements that you want to save from the current image. Later, when you apply the new Settings File to an image or group of images, Capture NX will apply the same enhancements with the same settings
