: Image processing. The link given uses graphics processing with a different meaning; "image processing software" outnumbers "graphics processing software" on Google by 200:1 :-).

image editing; picture editing

Dicdata (www.dicdata.de) also says \"image editing\".
Image processing is not beyond the realms of possibility, though.

Caro McL
: depends on the context and you need to ensure that "image processing" doesn't get confused with processing of film, "graphics editing" is the term we would use in localisation for manipulation of screen shots, mocking up artwork etc.
