German term

anfordern/abfordern

German to English Other Photography/Imaging (& Graphic Arts)
Produktbilder werden meist in vorher bekannten Bildformaten (definiert durch die jeweilige Web-Seite) angefordert.
Diese Bildformate werden initial im Image Archive angelegt, da sie mit hoher Wahrscheinlichkeit auch tatsächlich abgefordert werden und somit nicht erst zur Laufzeit berechnet werden müssen.

Thanks for the help.

Here's a couple of links that might help. I'm not sure I understand the use of abfordern here, as it seems that the photos won't (?) be used. Good luck!
