When you upload an image via Image Manager, Image Manager does a lot more than simply copy the image file to the Web and make it available to your CommerceCM Implementation. For example, when a Product Category image is uploaded, Image Manager takes the source image that is being uploaded and creates all the different versions of this image that will be required. The different versions may include:
- image for product on Department Page
- image for product on Product Detail Page
- extra large image for product which is accessible via Product Detail page
- image for product on Basket Page
Image Manager will create copies of the source image in the appropriate size and quality for each area where an image is required.
