Sometimes, I just want to open a picture and view it/do some simple cropping. With over 300 addons, PDN can take about 10 seconds to load, which can get a bit annoying. Could there be some option to set PDN to open with no addons, and consequently, an option to load the addons (after PDN has been opened, it then loads the addons and refreshes the menu display so the addons are there)? I know people might tell me to switch my default program to something else, but that isn't the workaround I'm looking for.
if there are any packs out for like photoshop extras, for extra filters or something? Cause my girlfriends says her school uses 8.0, same as her version, but there more options under filter>digimarc. My 9.0 only has the two watermark options so I'm wondering whats up.
I have downloaded PAINT.NET 3.5.10 which works OK. I then downloaded PSD PAINT.NET, unzipped and pasted Photoshop.dll (version 2.3.0.0) to FILES TYPE (in the PAINT.NET program folder). The FILES TYPE folder did not have anything else in it at the time.
I then re-started PAINT.NET but when trying to open PDF files previously saved in Photoshop CD6 then it states the file type is not recognised. I wish to be able to edit and print the PDF files in PAINT.NET. I did try the "open as" feature directly from the files, instructing all files of that type to open with PAINT.NET but had the same errot.
The PDF files will of course open in Adobe Reader but obviously cannot edit there whilst the print quality from Adobe Reader does seem to be quite bad by comparison to Photoshop prints.
I downloaded the trial version of Paint Shop Pro X3 and I would like to purchase it but I'm having problems with the main reason I need it. I need to open CDR files (read only is fine) but when I try to do that the Corel Draw Graphics Import Filter opens and loads almost until the end but the file never opens.
I had to reinstall my win7.And my X3.Now when I right click on a downloaded tube in it's file the tube won't open in X3.I can only open it from within the workspace.
This was one of the ways I got tubes open.how I can set a preference somewhere so that I can use it this way again?
I have used PSPx7-X3 over the last several years, so I'm experienced at installing new versions.This change to PSPX4 has been giving me fits!
At the moment, only PSPX4 has been installed PLUS the 1st Service Patch.
PROBLEM:When I start, it hangs on the first start up screen with the photo of the girl and the words "Starting Up..."It won't go any further.
I have tried:
1. Uninstalling and re-installing.
2. Uninstalling, running the Corel PSPX4 Clean-Up Tool, and re-installing.
3. Holding "shift" while opening.
4. Running as administrator - although I'm the only user on this laptop. There are not other accounts BUT administrator.
5. I have tried removing the the Corel folder from the app data folders - both in local and in roaming.
Additional Info:I had NO problems with PSP (x3 before Christmas) until Dec. 22 when Windows ran an automatic update which caused HAVOC with my computer. In the next few days, I had to do several system restores and un-stalls of PSPX3 just to get it running to finish up Christmas gifts. I can't just NOT do the critical Windows updates - but I don't know if they are causing an issue with PSP.
I've been given a .cdr file to use. I can't open it in X4, but X3 opens it. Not sure if it's opening it correctly, but it's opening it. X4 just comes up with an "unsupported file type" error. Did Corel drop support for .cdr files in X4?
On [URL].... it says that you can convert your DDS files into TPF files, but I want to be able to open already save TPF files do I don't know how. I have also found this [URL]....which is an open source version of this progame which might hold some clues into make the TPF file openable in paint.net.
If it is possible, make a plug-in for Paint.NET to open this file format. I do not know how to code so I can't do anything about it. If not then it doesn't matter as I will try find some other way around it.
I installed the PSD plugin so I could go to Photoshop edit a color/BW photo in Photoshop. In paint.net the file was saved as a psd file although photoshop can not open it?
I've been trying to figure out a way to open all of my old .pdn files in another program. It doesn't matter if it's a .psd or image file or anything, I just need to convert it into something I can actually use.
opening paint.net to convert the file. Well, great, but the files are leftover from when I had a PC--I have a mac now and couldn't download the program if I tried. Is there anything I can do?
In the newest version of Paint.net how do you get the thumbnail view to be the default type of view when opening a file in Windows XP? Instead it always defaults to LIST view when you open the program. In my current old version 3.2 it saved the last view 'state' you used but this is gone in the newer versions - at least since 2008.
Windows by default saves the last view 'state' of a folder when last accessed and the old version of Paint.net also had this windows behavior. MS Word, Excel, ect.. also has this behavior and saves the last open file view state you used. Paint.net does not respect the windows folders default view state - it uses its own and defaults it to LIST every time.
I have not been able to upgrade Paint.net for years because LIST view is worthless when viewing hundreds of pictures. Is there any way to get the default windows behavior back or is there a setting that saves the file open view state?
In Photoshop you can open one file, and then open another file and they show up side by side or however you want them to be. How can I do this in Paint.net? When I open one file, it will not let me reduce the size so another file can be in the same window.
I am attempting to learn to do my own vector images so that I can comfortably someday at least do all my own graphics for advertising and logos, banners, that sort of thing. I might need a special plug-in but even that was complicated. What is the real deal with this?
I hate to think that Adobe Photoshop is the be all end all program, for this type applications.
I have a document with three layers, nothing fancy. I want to make one of the layers bigger. The docs say use the selection tool (in my case the rectangle tool) to make a selection. They say if you want to resize the selection just grab on of the handles. This works as it should. However I want to resize my layer, which is essentially a square image. I can't see where to do this. The layer properties don't even show the size of my layer. Is there some way to open the layer in another window?
So I just downloaded and installed Paint.Net and am ready to use it. I took a few test shots with my camera, which is a Nikon D90, in NEF (RAW) + JPEG mode.
Now here is my problem(s). First off, I can see the RAW image on my camera, however, when I try to open it in the Paint.Net editor, it does not even appear as being there. It does not recognize the file at all. Then also, if I try to use the JPEG format of the same photo, I get an error message "The image type is not recognized, and cannot be opened"
I have to first save the JPEG file to my computer and then I can open it with Paint.Net. And as of right now, I can not do anything with the RAW file so it sits on my camera's SD card.
I really want to start editing my photos a little more than I currently do and figured it was time to take the RAW dive.
In Photoshop you can choose among 3 different contents when opening a NEW file: White, Backgroundcolour or Transparent. Where can I open a transparent new file in paint.net?
This is my first time using this program, and I accidentally closed the 'layers' window that shows the layers and lets you move them around. I can't find where to open it again.
I have PSP x4 and recently I am getting no images found. The folder shows up in PSP but when I click on it, it says no images found. It is happening on all my recent downloaded images and a few random folders from a while back. It also is stuck on updating cache settings for about 3 minutes when I am opening the program, it started doing this and the folder issue at the same time.
This morning I was editing a photo with Paintshop x5. I rotated it; adjusted levels, and saved. Fine; then I went to resize it to make a smaller version for email. I suddently get a message from Windows (7) saying the program has stopped and that Windows will shut it down and there will be a message as to what might be the problem. Well, it shut it down; no message. Now I can't start up Paintshop x5; it stays open for a few seconds, then I get the same message.
Since it was working fine, I assume something got corrupted? Something I can remove? I am NOT looking forward to having to reinstall the program for no apparent reason.
I can't open files saved in X4 in v9. I couldn't figure out the text tool in X4 & saved the file so I could finish in v9 but v9 says it is not a valid PSP file. This is very frustrating since I need to be able to use v9 until I learn X4. Second, I have 64 bit version of Thumbnail view installed but it still doesn't allow me to see all of my PSP files in Windows Thumbnail view.
I have owned previous versions of Paint Shop Pro, but decided to upgrade again. I really like Paint Shop Pro X4, and it has worked for me in the past on this same machine (Windows 7 HP laptop).
For some reason PSPx4 will not open -- ever -- not at all. The cursor spins continuously. I need to end the program manually. I have installed Corel PSPx4 service pack 3 and this did not work. My computer is healthy.
I have not tried installing and reinstalling PSPx4 because I can't find my disc, but I'm still looking ( I moved recently and I think I misplaced it).
Why did it stop working all of a sudden? I have a bunch of photos to edi.
My Paintshop Pro X4 was working great, until I registered it today, then all hell broke loose. It crashes and also I cannot get the "Computer" tab to open, only the "Desktop" tab will work correctly. Tried restarting it, same results. I use Win XP Pro SP3 and computer does not have virus, nor malware. Hard drive is 500G. Graphics card is updated and more than adequate.
The organizer has suddenly become unstable. When I try and open PSPX3, the organizer shows the spinning blue circle, and that just stays there forever. At the top of the program it says "not responding". I have to force the program closed. I've had PSPX3 for about six months, haven't had any problems before.
Is there something like a main thumbnail catalog file that can be deleted, so that that PXPX3 will rescan the hard drive. It acts like that catalog has become corrupt.
I haven't installed any patches in the last six months, and I can't tell you what version I have, because the program won't open.
Can I/How can I open old Corel .wi -files in Corel PaintShop Pro X4? I have a trial version but I could buy the program if it can open and convert those files. Is there any free converter which can do this?
I'm new here but for from new to PSP. I've used PSP8 for years and now are using PSP X1. I got PSP 4 but I'm not a fan at all. Anyway I've got a new PC running Win7 64 bit pro. The thing is PSP has decided it want use Adobe open style fonts. The True Type are fine. The open style do show in the fonts list and when used they do create a new vector layer and show the writing in the layers column. The thing is they don't show on the image. They used to work fine before but not now.
