    Stroking paths (PS6)

    Hi all. Is it just my version (PS6) of photoshop or, do all versions give poor results when stroking paths with hard edged brushes? If I stroke a selection I get a clean smooth brush stroke but, even when I stroke the same path that the selection was created from, the results are not as...

    How in a blue moon do you convert a CMYK file to 2 color??

    I guess the obvious question would be, what did your printer suggest you output to? To be honest this is not an area I'm particularly familiar with but, at a guess from your comments, I would suggest you may need to look into Spot Colors. Sorry I can't offer any further advice, but it...

    Software registration

    Hi all. Some time ago I bought some Adobe software that was claimed to be unregistered. The package was genuine, still sealed but, the serial was visible. The software was purchased on behalf of a family member, never used and recently I resold it for them. The new buyer has now told me...

    Printing photos - looking for suggestions

    I typed this with the just bold thinking your Canon Pro 1 would be around 4 or 5 mega pixels but, from Erics figures it appears to be an 8 mega pixel unit....WOW, that's just greedy %} Makes my Canon A60's 2 mega pixel look like a baby :(| I envy you, but bet your're going to need a hell of a...

    Printing photos - looking for suggestions

    Hi neolite. Can't help you with an online site but, the pics are excellent. Regarding the 20 X 16 prints. To get the best quality you would need to print at 300dpi which would require a 28mega pixel image. Don't know what the pro 1 is but, not 28 mega pix, I think. At 150dpi you would...

    Combine Paths...Break Apart??????

    Thanks Welles. I suspected not, as there is really no need for it in PS. I asked because I found a way to get my CorelDraw paths into PS as paths but, they have to be combined, so was just wondering if it had been added to a more recent version. Oh well, will just have to seperate one at...

    Combine Paths...Break Apart??????

    Hi all. In PS6 it is possible to combine paths but, there is no quick method of breaking them apart. They must be selected one at a time, copied, deleted, and then the copy pasted back in place as a seperate subpath, or path on its own path layer. Is there a button in PS7 or CS that breaks...

    actual pixels, fit to screen and print size buttons question

    Just to clarify Erics comments. When you print at 300dpi each pixel will print at a size of 1/300th of an inch. Scaleing the document size on screen will show the size of the printed document on screen but, there will be fewer pixels and they will be approx 1/100th of an inch in size...

    Photo restoration

    The tear, where the selotape has been removed, and the creases in the photo are both blurry, so I'm guessing the photo is not quite as bad as the scan posted here. My advice would be to make a selection of the head, neck and white area just below the neck and paste it on to a completely...

    Thanks, Welles. Have now tried this filter and I'm very impressed. Sark

    Free Transform "Actions" Positioning

    Welles. The method I will be using is such that hopefully I won't have to use the dialogue. All the files will have the same effect applied to them. Each object is in a different position in each file and hopefully will recieve a different level of blur determined by its position in the...

    make edges to drawing

    You could just fill a selection rectangle with black, reduce the selection rectangles size and fill with white. Sark

    Free Transform "Actions" Positioning

    Welles, Hi. Have downloaded the demo and will give it a try tonight. Not too expensive with current exchange rates and looks to be quite straight forward in function. Tried a couple last night but didn't like them. One, Lenscare by Friscluft, was so disabled as to make the demo almost...

    Free Transform "Actions" Positioning

    theKeeper, Hi. Have now got this sorted. I had three issues which kept me up till 1pm last night resolving, but have now got everything just perfect. One problem was caused by the method of exporting the files from Flash. Two related to PS. For some reason the Align buttons on the property...

    Batch Alpha Channels ???

    Erik, Welles, thanks for replying. Welles, I hadn't considered an Action because I was dealing with different layers rather than different documents. Although not "one hit" this would clearly speed things up and save jumping between palettes. I'm just trying to get some CorelDraw...

    Free Transform "Actions" Positioning

    theKeeper, Thanks for posting. More or less. :righton: The documents are all the same size, but the objects are at different positions in different documents. Your method is a slightly different approach to my own as I did not select or align before using the transform tool. Will try...

    Transition to PS6

    DestnyMyne, Hi. I've recently jumped ship from Corels Photopaint to Photoshop and likewise had a few initial frustrations. I can assure however, it is no more dificult to use than PP. The main stumbling block initially is the different naming conventions. For example Corels Masks are...

    Batch Alpha Channels ???

    Hi all. Is there a way to create an alpha channel for each layer in a document in one hit, or is it a case of doing it one layer at a time? Note…I don’t want to merge the layers to paste into one channel, I need seperate channels for each layer. Many thanks. Sark

    Free Transform "Actions" Positioning

    Hi all. If I open a ping file in PS6 I can move the object within the layer to a given position using the Free Transform tool and typing in X & Y points in the property bar. If I open a similar sized ping file with the object in a different position from the first file, typing in the same X &...

    Export to Clipboard

    I tried Xara X and liked it, but it wasn't sufficiently different enought from CorelDraw to encourage me to change. The gaussian blur would be a nice feature though, something Corel still haven't implimented even in version 12 apparently. Mostly, for creating elements in Draw for...
