+ Edit photos with an external program
+ </title>
+
+ <p>
+ You might want to use an external editor to do additional work on a photo.
+ If installed, GIMP and UFRaw are the default external editors for photo and RAW editing,
+ respectively. If these programs are not installed, you must select your preferred
+ editors by choosing <guiseq><gui>Edit</gui><gui>Preferences</gui></guiseq> and selecting
+ editors from drop-down menus of installed applications.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Once your editors have been set, select a photo and choose <guiseq><gui>Photos</gui>
+ <gui>Open With External Editor</gui></guiseq> to open the photo with the external editor.
+ Likewise, if the original photo is a RAW file, select <guiseq><gui>Photos</gui><gui>Open
+ With RAW Editor</gui></guiseq> to edit the RAW file directly with the set RAW editor.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ When you complete your edits and save the file, Shotwell will detect the changes and
+ update the photo. When external edits have been made, press and hold the
+ <key>Shift</key> key in full-window view to show the original photo rather than the
+ externally-edited one.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Reverting to original will erase any external edits.
+ </p>
+
+ <note>
+ <p>
+ If you externally edit a RAW photo and save the result to another image, such as a
+ JPEG or PNG, Shotwell cannot automatically determine that the original RAW and the
+ new image should be paired.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ If you want to work within the resulting image within Shotwell, you'll need to
+ import it yourself.
