Description:
------------
Welcome to the world of Paint Shop Pro. Paint Shop Pro is a full
featured graphics manipulation and paint program. It contains
features demanded by professional graphic artists, with an
understandable and easy to use interface for the beginner.
Features include:
Painting
Paint Shop Pro gives you the power to paint your way! You can
choose one of the default settings (paintbrush, pen, pencil,
marker, crayon, pastel, airbrush or charcoal) or adjust any of
the brush attributes to create your own effects.
Photo Retouching
Now you have all the power you need to enhance your existing
images. Use the clone brush for quick and easy duplication of
image areas, even between separate images. The retouching brush
provides you with flexible control over the various attributes.
Use the defaults (lighten, darken, soften, sharpen or emboss) or
change the attributes to work the way that is easiest for you.
Image Enhancement and Editing
Paint Shop Pro includes full featured masking support (alpha
channel support is available for TIFF, TGA, and PNG file formats).
Image Arithmetic allows you to combine two images together. Paint
Shop Pro allows you to perform flip, mirror, rotate (by one
degree increments) and crop operations. The program includes
21 image filters and 11 deformations, plus the ability to create
your own filters, and supports third party plug-in filters such as
Kai's Power Tools or Alien Skin's Black Box.
Image Browser
The thumbnail browser allows you to visually search directories
for images. You can select images to be loaded into Paint Shop Pro
for editing.
World Wide Web Graphics Support
Creating a graphic for the World Wide Web could not be any easier
than with Paint Shop Pro. Simply create your graphic and save it
as one of the popular formats for World Wide Web graphics. Paint
Shop Pro supports the Transparent GIF, Transparent PNG, and
Progressive JPEG formats highly sought after for web page graphics.
Color Enhancement
Paint Shop Pro provides full support for adjusting brightness,
contrast, highlight, shadow, midtone, gamma correction and color
reduction, as well as hue, saturation, luminance and RGB levels.
Palette editing and direct palette mapping allow global changes to
multiple images. Furthermore, histogram functions enable the user
to equalize and stretch the image values. Results can be viewed
on the enhanced histogram window that displays red, green, blue
and luminance values.
Image Viewing and Printing
View multiple images at once with Paint Shop ProÆs extensive
viewing capabilities. If desired, you can edit an image at
the pixel level while viewing it at another zoom level. You can
also use the full screen mode, complete with zoom, pan, and all
image editing features. Paint Shop Pro supports any Windows
compatible printer.
Built-in Special Effects
Are you ever nearing completion of creating a graphic and only
wish you could put a drop shadow behind it to give it a raised
effect? No need to worry, Paint Shop Pro includes built-in
special effects, such as drop shadow, buttonize, seamless welder,
gradient fill, hot wax coating, chisel and cutout. Your
possibilities are endless when you use any of these creative tools.
Paint Shop Pro also provides image viewing and printing functions
to provide you complete control over how your images appear.
Support for TWAIN compliant scanners is also included.
GIF Transparency is fully supported. Paint Shop Pro provides
support for the following image file formats:
BMP, CDR, CGM, CLP, CMX, CUT, DIB, DRW, DXF, EPS, GEM, GIF,
HPGL, IFF, IMG, JIF, JPG, LBM, MAC, MSP, PCD, PCX, PIC,
