AKVIS PlugIns Compatibility with Photo & Video Editors

Plug-ins are programs that integrate into your existing software adding new features and increasing functionality. AKVIS develops plugins for image and video editing programs.

Compatibility of the AKVIS Image Processing PlugIns with Photo Editors

AKVIS image processing plug-ins are compatible with AliveColors, Adobe Photoshop and other image editors.

Note that the information below concerns only the latest versions of the AKVIS software!

You do not have a compatible image editor? Try the standalone versions (independent applications). You can also download AliveColors Free (a free version of the AKVIS image editor).

Attention: You can launch almost all AKVIS plugins from the Filters/Effects, except AKVIS Magnifier. You will find the Magnifier plugin in Photoshop in File -> Automate, in Photoshop Elements in File -> Automation tools.

For Win-users: If the plugin does not appear in your image editor, copy the .8bf file from the AKVIS folder into the Plugins folder of this editor. Read how to add AKVIS Plugins to image editors.

If you have information about compatibility of our plug-ins with other image editors, please write to info@akvis.com.
