Corel PaintShop Pro Description
The software market does not fall short of image editors these days. Most of them are bundled with basic photo editing features which are not enough to make your work stand out of the crowd. If this is the case, you need a professional editing assistant, such as Corel PaintShop Pro.
Manage photographs and view EXIF data
This is a full-featured graphic editor that includes some of the most amazing effects and correction tools the market has ever seen. In addition, it also provides the means to quickly organize your images, by quickly selecting, sorting, and rating them.
Corel PaintShop Pro features a stylish and well-organized interface that’s divided into three main modules: Manage, Adjust and Edit. The first one allows users to tag or rate their photos, as well as to edit the file information or view EXIF data.
Automatically adjust some image parameters
Starting with the Adjust panel, the image editing part begins. In this workspace, users benefit from a few tools that aim to perform quick fixes of your photos. As such, you have the Smart Photo Fix utility that has the ability to suggest just the right amount of brightness, shadows, highlights or saturation that your photo needs in order to look spectacular. You can also make adjustments to the color balance or remove the digital noise overlaid over your images.
A myriad of tools at your fingertips
Corel PaintShop Pro’s strongest module is the one located in the Edit workspace. This section is slightly different from the previous ones; this is a panel that comprises an array of menus and tools, all for the greater good. Quicker access to editing options is provided via the Learning Center, a sidebar that provides shortcuts to the most important functions: effects, layers, quick adjustments, text and print to name a few.
Other features worth mentioning are: Selective Focus (to add depth of field while blurring other details), the RAW lab (with improved histograms for better fine-tunning), the Smart Carver (enables you to remove objects from images without affecting its quality) and the Makeover Tools (a set of tools for face enhancements).
Evaluation
The system’s performance might be burdened to some extent, especially if you are using an older computer. However, the response time is good and the interface you come by is professional and user-friendly. To sum up, Corel PaintShop brings a set of sophisticated, yet not complicated tools for image editing, which make it one of the best choices in its product category.
