Topaz - Photo Ai
Integrating Topaz Photo AI into your existing workflow is frictionless.
Crucial Note: Always do your cropping in Topaz Photo AI. If you crop in Lightroom then send it to Topaz, you are sending a smaller file. If you send the full file, crop inside Topaz, and then upscale, the AI has more pixels to work with. topaz photo ai
