A workflow preset combines several presets. You can mix presets from bundles, actions, scripts and camera raw filter. Furthermore, additional workflow presets are available, such as “Close Document” or “Select Tool”. This allows you not only to create complex processes but also to generate your own image looks with adjustment layers. You can also add your own thumbnails and searchable information.
