Background

Bibble 5 is a fast, flexible photographic workflow application. Bibble 5 is designed to help you optimize your digital photographic images and to help you organize and catalog those images. It allows you to adjust and optimize your images very quickly, and to batch adjust and convert these images to prints, send via email, share on the web or edit or view in other applications.

Bibble 5 provides three major categories of features: Asset Management, Image Editing, and Output Generation.

		Asset Management is the means to catalog your digital photographic assets (called Master Files), view and add metadata to these assets, and search and browse based on that metadata. As your volume of digital photographs grows from hundreds to thousands of images, maintaining a coherent and organized library of those photographs becomes quite critical. Bibble 5 provides all the tools needed to catalog your current photographs, to search and to browse through those catalogs quickly and efficiently.
		Image Adjustment & Optimizing is the process of applying color management and correction, exposure adjustment, and other creative image editing tools to your original photographs, enabling you to optimize your photographs in the least amount of time. Bibble 5 offers image adjustment tools that operate on entire images (like exposure compensation or white balance) and also offers Selective Editing to allow you to adjust regions or smaller portions of your images.
		Output Generation will take the previews you see in Bibble and create new image files that you can print, share on the web, and access in other applications. Bibble 5's powerful Batch Conversion system helps automate this process.

Bibble 5 can help organize your photographic catalog, importing images and assigning keywords and other metadata to your images to help you quickly find the images you are looking for.

Bibble 5 can improve your images, optimizing exposure and color, white balance and detail, lower digital noise or sensor imperfections, remove optical distortion or many, many other things.

Bibble 5 can prepare your files in many formats for optimized output, for many different output rendering intents.

Photographic Workflow refers to all the activities that occur between the initial image capture and the final destination of your photograph. Photographers have very different workflows, depending on the volume of shooting they do and what the photographs will be used for. Your workflow might be as simple as downloading images from your camera's memory card and printing them on a printer attached to your computer. Or, it may include the addition of keywords and star ratings to search and sort your images, image adjustments and corrections, backup and archiving, printing locally and sharing your photography on the web or sending your files to printing service bureaus or pre-press facilities for final printing. Bibble 5 supports a wide range of workflow options and working styles to ensure that you can get the best quality from your photographs in the least amount of time.
