Print Dialog Box
Customizing Your Setup
Printer Setup
You change your printer setup from the Print Setup Dialog Box. You can access the dialog box from the Print Dialog Box, or by selecting "Printer Setup" from the File
Menu.
The name of the Print Setup Dialog Box is a little misleading. You can use the dialog box to select any of your system's graphic output devices. These devices are
usually printers, but can also be another type of device, such as a fax modem. In the interest of simplicity, this section will use "printer" to mean any graphic output device.
Selecting a Printer
You can can use any of the other printers that are available to your system. You select a printer form the Printer Drop Down Box.
Setting the Page Orientation
There are two different page orientations, portrait and landscape. On a standard piece of stationary paper (8╜" by 11" in the U.S.), printing in portrait orientation will place
the image with its top toward one of the narrower sides, and printing in landscape orientation will place the image with its top toward one of the wider sides. To select an
orientation:
Click on its text or option button in the Orientation Group Box.
Press <Alt> plus the option's underlined letter.
Selecting the Paper Size and Source
The printer determines which paper size and source options are available. You select the size and source from the drop down boxes in the Paper Group Box. (For some
printers, one or both of the drop down boxes may be unavailable.)
Other Options
Selecting the Options Button opens a dialog box that is specific to the software or driver that operates the selected printer. For help using the dialog box, try pressing
<F1>, selecting the Help Button (if there is one), or referring to the appropriate documentation.
TOPIC: General Preferences
Customizing Your Setup
General Preferences
You change most of Paint Shop Pro's settings from the General Preferences Dialog Box. You access the dialog box by selecting "General" from the File Preferences
Sub-Menu.
Using the General Preferences Dialog Box
The options in the General Preferences Dialog Box are grouped under four tabs. You select a tab by clicking on it. Most of the options are controlled by check boxes. To
Adobe-compatible is the Windows standard for image processing filters. To use Adobe-compatible filters with Paint Shop Pro:
1 Fill the Enable Plugins Check Box.
2 Select the Browse Button.
3 Use the Select Directory Dialog Box to select the directory that contains the filters.
Enable Internal Plugin Filter Masking
If the Enable Internal Plugin Filter Masking Option is turned on, and a plugin filter is applied to an image that has a mask, Paint Shop Pro will run the results of the
plugin filter through the image's mask. Some plugin filters may work better with this option on, and others may require it to be off. For more information, consult the
plugin's documentation or on-line help.
Fit Window to Image When Zooming
When this option is turned on, Paint Shop Pro resizes image windows when you zoom in or out. A window is resized to include as much of the image as possible.
Anti-Alias Selected Area Operations
Anti-aliasing smoothes out jagged edges by applying shading to outlying pixels. When this option is turned on, Paint Shop Pro applies anti-aliasing to tasks that
involve selections.
Close Browser After an Image is Selected
When this option is turned on, PSP Browser will close when you load an image or images into Paint Shop Pro.
Loading Tab Options
Use Aldus-Compatible Import Filters
Aldus-compatible is the Windows standard for file import filters. Paint Shop Pro can use Aldus-compatible filters to read additional file formats. To use
Aldus-compatible import filters with Paint Shop Pro, fill in the check box, and enter the appropriate section heading from your WIN.INI file in the text box. For most
users, this will be "MS Graphic Import Filters".
Metafile / Import Options
There two ways that Paint Shop Pro can open metafiles: (1) it can prompt you for the size and other settings when it opens a metafile; or (2) it can try to use the
available file header information. If you select to use file header information, you need to set the default size for files without a header. You use the spin controls to set
the dimensions.
Saving Tab Options
Ask Before Changing...
When an option in this group is turned on, and the specified task is performed, Paint Shop Pro will ask for confirmation before it alters an image to accommodate a
change in file format. For example, if the File Save As Option is turned on, and you use the File Save As Dialog Box to save an image to a format that does not
support the image's current color depth: (a) you will be notified that a color depth change is necessary to accommodate the new format; and (b) you will be asked to
confirm the change.
Ask to Save Changes...
When an option in this group is turned on, and the specified task is performed, Paint Shop Pro will prompt you to save each open file that is new or has been
changed. For example, if the File Exit Option is turned on, and you close Paint Shop Pro, you will be prompted to save every open file that has been edited or has not
been saved.
DPI To Be Written...
These options control the dots-per-inch (DPI) for files saved under the specified formats. You use the spin controls to change the DPI settings.
JIF/JPG Compression Level
Controls the amount of compression applied to JIF/JPG files. The higher the number, the smaller the files, and the greater the loss of data.
Misc Tab Options
Default PCD Size
Kodak Photo-CD files contain multiple sizes of a single image. The active Default PCD Size Option determines which size will be read when a PCD file is opened. If
the last option is selected, you will be prompted to select the size each time you open a PCD file.
RAW Save Options
The RAW Save Options control how Paint Shop Pro saves RAW pixel data.
TOPIC: New Windows
Customizing Your Setup
New Windows
Paint Shop Pro lets you determine if commands that create a new image should:
Replace the original image with the new image within the current image window
Leave the original image intact and place the new image in a new window.
For example, when you apply a deformation or filter, you may want to create a new image instead of replacing the existing image.
When you install Paint Shop Pro 3.0, all commands are set to replace existing images. If you installed Version 3.0 over Version 2.0, your old settings were not retained.
This is due to a necessary change in the underlying technology, and we regret any inconvenience.
You change the New Window Settings from the New Windows Dialog Box. You access the dialog box by selecting "New Windows" from the File Preferences Sub-Menu.
Understanding the Menu Items
The word before the dash indicates the menu and the text after the dash indicates the item. For example, "Image - Resize" is the Resize Selection on the Image Menu.
Selecting/Deselecting Menu Items
You can set all of the menu items at once, or you can select them individually.
To turn the New Window Option on for all of the menu items, select the All Create Button.
To turn the New Window Option off for all of the menu items, select the All Replace Button.
To turn the New Window Option on or off for a specific menu item:
1 Select the menu item from the list box.
2 Select the appropriate option from the bottom of the dialog box.
TOPIC: Undo Storage Options
Customizing Your Setup
Undo Storage Options
The Undo Command removes the last set of unsaved changes to an image. You use the File Preferences Undo Sub-Menu to select if and where Paint Shop Pro should
store its backup images.
For most users, the "In Memory" setting provides the best results.
Disabled
If Undo is disabled, Paint Shop Pro does not save backup images. To undo your changes, use the File Revert Command to retrieve the last saved copy of the file.
In Memory
When "In Memory" is selected, Paint Shop Pro saves the backup images in RAM, which provides the quickest retrieval. If your system is short on memory, or you
are working with very large, memory-intensive images, this option may prove too demanding. Try the "To Disk" setting.
To Disk
When "To Disk" is selected, Paint Shop Pro saves the backup images to the Windows temporary directory, which places less demand on your system's memory,
but offers slower retrieval. If the drive containing your Windows temporary directory is short on space, this option may take too long to read and write, and you may
encounter problems with large image files.
Selecting an Undo Setting
You select an Undo Setting by clicking on its menu selection, or by pressing the appropriate hot keys. The selected setting has a check mark next it on the File
Preferences Undo Sub-Menu
