Interesting discussion. Thanks guys and special thanks to Trev for a revealing look at the RAW stuff in PSP.
I tried Raw Shooter Essentials, Steve. It will not accept my RAF files or DNG files...
Me too. Corel have been criticised about this before.
If I could could get an AUD$50 upgrade to X2 that allowed RAW from many images, I would consider it.
HOWEVER.
RAW is a funny thing. I...
Thanks Steve
Hehe....except that I am trying to get rid of PSP!

I am using Paint Shop Pro and was interested in trying Xara XTreme Pro. I am mainly into photo work. If I want to select, say, the sky in a photo, in PSP I would use the Magic Wand and ask for it to...
Thanks Steve. Consider me more than a little peeved. :(
That Wikipedia page was interesting as well..
hmmmm...I had a PC crash that allowed me to reinstall XARA time to try again....imports RAW...
Steve, thanks.
I take that all on board and have seen the same sort of things happen in the digital music world (Cakewalk).
But my main question (and probably gripe) is "Was Ultimate brought...
Am I right in thinking that Corel brought out X2, then brought out Ultimate (which as far as I am concerned is useful only in that it allows RAW support, which should have been in X2 anyway)?
If...
Ok. Thanks Keith. That is what I was using. I think it's foreground white, background/fill black.
As I said it worked in many cases but not so well in "busy" parts of the shot....bushes, water...
Thanks for the reply, Keith.
I tried that. It worked on _most_ stuff, but in areas that were complex and high contrast it still was a bit tough to read. These are shots of a trip to show the...
Arrgh! I need to get this done!
So I decided to script in PSP :
open photo, select a small strip, Clear, then deselect and Save As, then saved to another (\Titled) directory, same file name.
...
Ahhh! OK. Nice. I can grab dear old PSP in there and use the familiar stuff. I like non-destructive. I have been asking for PSP to only have the ability to save the history with the file, let alone...
Steve
I was already downloading the trial before I got your reply! :)
I remembered Xara as being more paint orientated, so I will be interested to see about what you are saying.
Very...
Just to top up. I wanted to do the select last so that it could be made to fit the text, rather than vice versa. Hence the extra steps.
Nick
Ok. Thanks. I thought there may be a straight way.
However, I will check Xara again. I tried it a few years back and it was buggy and strange. I think it was right at its inception (??) . Ahah! We...
While I have used PSP for years to adjust photos, I have made very little use of the raster and vector parts.
My wife wants to annotate several hundred photos with info about where they were taken...
Got it! Thanks.
Maybe that URL does not like download managers. Usu. if I use my DLM I get a blank site and the DLM pops up and asks to D/L.
OOI I will try to disable my DM and see what...
Hi Steve.
I am not sure about the decoder. FinePix Viewer can look at RAF files, and edit them (although rather limited and very clunky and slow) but I am not sure about a decoder as such.
That...
Steve,
I read that other thread, right through until it disappeared up its own fundament! <G>
In there somewhere you mentioned that RAW could be used to get rid of PF in a way that could not be...
Thanks for that Steve.
I will check out that link. I had a fairly shallow idea of what the game was in theory. It's just seeing what actually happens.
I can see where if you use RAW you are...
Thanks for the pointer on Raw Therapy. A basic but capable programme. I took a couple of RAW shots of my (as usual opened) PC, and I was able to drag quite a bit more detail out of it.
I am going...
Goodness! That is "not nice play" in my book.
Sorry these messages are getting a bit confused. You are replying really fast, and I am posting "on the fly", but I think we are ok so far! :)
Nick
Sorreee..I got the later version of the dng converter to work..then I read your post properly.
As you say, that's not too good.
Nick
Thanks, Steve.
I have tried Adobe DNG converter (only just discovered it after asking) , which I understand can convert from one RAW format to another (???)
The 8bi plugin that it uses should...
I have a Fuji camera and of course they have decided to make yet _another_ RAW file format, which PSP X2 does not seem to support.
What RAW formats _does_ X2 support, and is there a way to convert...
So does anyone like the idea of being able to link the history to a picture, either directly or by export/import?
Needless to say I do <G>
