AEM Dynamic Media: Configuring Named Image Types with Predefined Parameters Using Image Presets
In Adobe Experience Manager Dynamic Media, you might need to define image types with predefined parameters such as width and height that are managed directly in AEM. This approach provides centralized control of image rendering parameters instead of relying on an external commerce system.
