#COREL PAINTSHOP PRO TUTORIAL SOFTWARE#
PaintShop Pro 2022 Ultimate is available with a perpetual license for a suggested price of $99.99/£89.99, and this version also includes the Sea-to-Sky Workspace, Painter Essentials 8, PhotoMirage Express, AfterShot 3, Highlight Reel, MultiCam Capture Lite and The Corel Creative Collection, which is a huge amount of software and functionality for the price.


Plus, these features can be used with any image to achieve the result they’re designed for so if you don’t shoot portraits but like the idea of cutting objects out, changing background and applying bokeh to your shots, then these features have lots more scope than their names suggest. While the number of new features is reduced from the 2021 version of the software, the new portrait effects can work well if you’re prepared to spend a little time adjusting the AI applied masks. If you’re running an older version than 2021 or are new to PaintShop Pro, you certainly won’t be disappointed with PaintShop Pro 2022 Ultimate.
#COREL PAINTSHOP PRO TUTORIAL UPGRADE#
2021 arguably saw more updates than this version, so it may be worth waiting for the 2023 version to upgrade if you’re using 2021, unless you need the capabilities of MultiCam Capture Lite or compatibility with Apple image file formats etc. Paintshop Pro 2022 Ultimate is easily the best version of the software to date and builds on the impressive features introduced in the previous release. The best image quality and results naturally come from editing within the Essentials and Complete workspaces where you have the highest levels of control, although the Complete workspace has the edge because this is the most fully-featured part of the software with the tools, adjustments and features more advanced users would expect. You can use this feature to cut any subject out from an image, or indeed use AI Portrait to blur the background in any image despite the names being targeted towards portraits. Get the edges spot on, though, and the bokeh effect looks good at lower blur levels with several sliders and a choice of aperture shapes to customise the look.ĪI Background Replacement is as effective and the masking involved works in the same way as AI Portrait mode, but rather than blurring the background you can apply a new one from a selection of preset backgrounds, load one of your own images or opt for a transparent background. The AI does make this easier than traditional masking since the mask snaps to edges, although there can be bleeding onto the model in the image so you have to take great care when adding, subtracting and refining the mask. The new AI Portrait mode in the Complete workspace works reasonably well to identify people in the scene, but you nearly always have to adjust the mask manually.
#COREL PAINTSHOP PRO TUTORIAL MANUAL#
The AI Portrait and Background modes will mask out the background automatically but usually need some manual adjustments for the best results. This section is also touch-compatible, so if you have a touch-enabled monitor or laptop you can enjoy a more tactile approach to editing, albeit one that centres more around one-click effects than more manual editing tasks. The Photography Workspace is designed for quickly and easily applying a range of effects at the touch of a button, and includes most of the AI features available in the software. You can also move from one workspace to another and keep the image(s) you’re working on open. It would be better if simply clicking on the relevant name changed the workspace since clicking Apply feels superfluous, but it’s one of those things most people won’t have feelings on one way or the other. To select one of these simply click on the workspace name and click on Apply to load the selected workspace. The interface is broken down into Photography, Essentials, Complete and the Sea-to-Sky workspaces. From here, you can also access tutorial videos to help you get started with different aspects of the software as well as the store where you can purchase other software, templates and bundles. The interface remains almost identical to the previous release, with the Welcome page providing access to the various workspaces aimed at different types of editing and user experience of editing.
