Designed for anyone interested in graphics, photography, or photographic
creations, this book came into existence to show you how you can put the incredible power of
Corel PaintShop Pro X4 into play.
This book cuts right to the chase of the PaintShop Pro X4 tools that are best used when working with
photographs and creating your own graphic elements. You will learn about photographs and how to
correct and enhance them, making them better than they appeared out of your camera. There’s even a
chapter dedicated just to color and understanding how it works.
You’ll learn about using layers to make adjustments, such as brightness, hue, color contrast, and many
others. This book covers the often-misunderstood topic of resolution and how it applies to your monitor,
your images, and your prints. Also, you will look at the PaintShop Pro RAW lab, where you can process your
camera’s RAW images, getting just the look you want.
It’s not all work, though. You’ll also learn about many of the fun things you can do with your photographs,
such as creating digital scrapbook pages or 3-dimensional images with them. Discover how you
can make composite images, retouch and repair damaged photographs, and create works of art with the
special effects provided with PaintShop Pro X4.
The best way to absorb a feature is to jump in and try it. Taste is relative. What you like about an image
may be completely different from what the person next to you likes. I am confident that as you make
your way through this book, you will gain a good feel for the awesome power of PaintShop Pro X4. |
