All editions work as standalone applications, but the Lightroom & Aperture and Premium Editions also work as plug-ins. Perfect Photo Suite 7 is sold in three different versions: Standard Edition, Lightroom & Aperture Edition, and Premium Edition. In fact, I think a case can be made that as a standalone program, it might be all you need for image editing. It's a big, comprehensive, powerful piece of software that stretches the definition of plug-in by straddling the border between a plug-in and a full application. Their latest and most ambitious offering is Perfect Photo Suite 7. Quite an accomplishment.Īt first, onOne made plug-ins exclusively for Photoshop but eventually expanded to include Aperture, Lightroom, and Photoshop Elements. Fast-forward to Lightroom, which doesn't have a layers feature, but onOne filled the void with their impressive Perfect Layers plug-in, and now we can combine areas of multiple files using layers and masks. In September 1994, Adobe amazed the photographic and design communities by introducing a powerful feature in Photoshop 3 called "layers." It was a revolutionary and practical way to work with images. They continually hone, evolve, and expand their products, giving us better ways to work with our images. This is a fate shared by many plug-in manufacturers however, onOne Software thrives, and for good reason: they're keenly aware of, and responsive to, their audience. An old favorite of mine was the incredible Kai's Power Tools, but sadly, somewhere along the line, it was sold to a larger company and left to die. And let's not minimize aesthetics-many plug-ins are more visually appealing, making them more enjoyable to use. Plug-ins frequently fill a void with features not found in the main application, or they might do tasks found in the main application more efficiently and with better results.
