Adobe Bridge & ON1 integrations, Mac Intel support, and faster stacking!

Version 2026.09.07

Adobe Bridge and ON1 Integrations!
Stack straight from Adobe Bridge and ON1 Photo RAW. In Adobe Bridge, right-click the bracket, choose "Stack in Macro Studio", and the result opens ready to adjust. In ON1 Photo RAW, right click and “Send to” Macro Studio.

Faster stacking!
Stacking is faster on every machine, especially on older computers and ones that stack on the CPU alone.

Macro Studio now runs on Intel Macs
A few things work differently there: for now, updates arrive as a download from the site rather than an auto-update, and very new cameras may need the free Adobe DNG Converter.

StackCheck badge on thumbnails
Library thumbnails show a StackCheck badge on images where StackCheck has a recommendation.

Better support for newer cameras
Some newer cameras were stacking successfully but the color was wrong. These situations are now detected and routed to the Adobe DNG Converter to give proper color.
