When this feature was first added to photoshop it caused a noticable delay when opening files or pasting content from outside photoshop. It was possible to disable the check by removing a DLL from photoshop and get the speed back to normal.
Somehow I don't think this feature has done much to discourage serious counterfitters, it's just annoyed legitimate users, especially as there are pefectly legal ways in which an image of a banknote can be used.
- pyre 16y agoI don't think that it's meant to discourage serious counterfeiters. It's meant as a barrier to casual counterfeiters. Now that tools are powerful as Photoshop are at the fingertips of the masses, this seems like it is meant as a way to prevent people that otherwise wouldn't know the first thing about counterfeiting from just firing up Photoshop and trying to make fake money. (I'm not commenting on it's efficacy though)
- Vivtek 16y agoThis magical currency detection is in a single DLL? Why hasn't it already been reverse engineered?
- cosmicray 16y ago> When this feature was first added to photoshop Do you know what release that was ? Perhaps this cranky old copy of PS-5 I use is free of that enhancement.
- sciolistse 16y agoIt was added in the first "CS" version.. Photoshop 5 is, unencumbered.
