the alphaplugins engraver iii is plug-in for adobe photoshop and compatible
faster processing: the engraver iii plugin implements a new image-processing engine, which produces high quality images faster than previous versions. the rendering engine is powerful enough to let you work in a large preview size in high resolution with no effect on performance (important on retina screens!).
new user interface features: we’ve worked hard to make the user interface of engraver iii powerful and easy to understand. we’ve made the engraver iii window resizable, and the preview pane scalable. parameters are also conveniently grouped by themes.
multilayer support: the new version introduces multilayer support, which allows you to create an engraving with intersecting patterns, simulating more realistic and complex crosshatching. you can also experiment with parameters that creatively affect and blend the layers, with the results all shown in real time.
new geometric patterns: we’ve kept all the old geometric patterns and added even more in engraver iii, giving you a unique family of engraving effects not available in any other plugin.
randomization features: old-fashioned engravings had imperfections, made by the engraver’s hands or by the printing process. the new randomization options let you add noise to the engraving lines, change line roughness, continuity and edges, or engraving line coverage of the image. all these imperfections make your engraving all the more unique.
effects settings: we’ve added a more natural ink color processor to our effects features, so you can now get beautiful engravings from non-photographic source images!
powerful presets: engraver iii’s power starts with its large set of factory parameters (grouped in subfolders for convenience). you can quickly explore plugin possibilities and features, and tune up settings as you go. and again, when you create a special setting you want to use again, it’s easy to save it!
