# Preset > Saved PhotoRobot Controls settings for capture and editing, applied automatically to similar products. Also known as: presets, capture preset, editing preset. Category: Software. A preset is a saved set of settings that can be reapplied with one action. In PhotoRobot Controls a preset combines capture settings (angles, camera and light settings) with post-processing operations, so similar products are photographed and edited the same way automatically. ## How PhotoRobot uses it PhotoRobot describes presets as predefined rules that govern the process from capture to online publishing. Presets can be assigned when an item is created, to many items at once, through CSV import, or automatically by sorting an item to a [shelf](https://www.photorobot.com/glossary/sort-to-shelves). [PI Profiles](https://www.photorobot.com/glossary#pi-profiles) can suggest adjustments to a preset or a new one. ## See on photorobot.com - [Capture and Control features](https://www.photorobot.com/software/capture-control) - [Editing images manual](https://www.photorobot.com/manuals/editing-images) ## Related terms - [Macro](https://www.photorobot.com/glossary/macro): A stored sequence of PhotoRobot Controls commands that automates multi-step capture across folders. - [Sort to shelves](https://www.photorobot.com/glossary/sort-to-shelves): PhotoRobot Controls feature that assigns workspace and preset to an item by scanning a shelf code. - [Workspace](https://www.photorobot.com/glossary/workspace): In PhotoRobot Controls, the list of hardware (robots, cameras, lights) used for a specific photoshoot. - [PhotoRobot Controls](https://www.photorobot.com/glossary/photorobot-controls): PhotoRobot's software suite for capture, editing, digital asset management, studio workflow and publishing. - [Batch processing](https://www.photorobot.com/glossary/batch-processing): Applying the same edits to many images at once instead of one by one. ## Where this term appears on photorobot.com Mentioned on 88 pages.
