redraw the screen during editing. Adobe added the ability to save images in Aldus Freehand format (in addition to Adobe Illustrator, PICT, and DXF). Users can now instantly save and retrieve conversion options. In 3.0 Adobe introduced support for acquiring images directly from a scanner. Users have an expanded palette of editing tools (including the magic wand tool). Users can now cut and paste PostScript language artwork on the Clipboard, allowing interaction with other programs such as Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop. Adobe added support for copying line art into Adobe Photoshop 2.5 file format. Features new to Version 4.0 Scan images and sketches into Adobe Streamline, or import line art, logos, color photos, and other art files. Begin by using predetermined settings for ease of learning, then experiment with custom conversion settings, such as outline, centerline, line recognition, and more. Save them for reuse, minimizing the work for later conversions. Convert without gaps, overlapping paths, or other inaccuracies. Streamline compensates for improper alignment of scanned images and straightens horizontal and vertical lines. Let Adobe Streamline select the appropriate colors up to an unlimited number, or specify a custom color list (spot colors).Simulate duotones, tritones, and quadtones with tints of custom colors. Designate separate settings specific to different areas of the same image. If you have multiple images to convert - such as a set of logos - you can batch process all the files. Compatibility Adobe Streamline was integrated with many other Adobe products such as Adobe Photoshop, Adobe PageMaker, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Dimensions, and Adobe PageMill.
