Re: [Gimp-user] Convert text to path
community help wrote: Hi, I'm reading in the manual http://docs.gimp.org/en/ch07s05s05.html that I can convert tet to path, but I cannot find or I don't know how to access the text tools option Create path from text button they are talking about. What I am doing is double clicking on the text layer on the layers window, maybe this is wrong? You don't say what version of GIMP you are using, but the bar, [Create] path from Text is in the text toolbox, not the layers window. Note that in GIMP 2.6, the wording on the bar omits the word Create. ns ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] Increasing DPI of image
Can Gimp increase the DPI of a PSD file without affecting the physical dimensions of the image? We have a wedding invitation in PSD that is 72 DPI and the printer needs 300 DPI.

We have a wedding invitation in PSD that is 72 DPI and the printer needs 300 DPI. Thanks in advance. You need to scale your image up to 300/72 (~416.6%) of it's current size as well as setting DPI to 300. To understand why, you need to realize that your original question is like asking 'How can I make this small while keeping it big?' -- DPI is literally how many pixels are printed per inch. Less pixels in the source image == less physical size. David ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

[Gimp-user] Another question.
Gimp 2.6.2 Mac OS X 10.5.5 I have photos to which I need to apply 2 watermarks that you guys showed me how to make transparent and I thank you for that as it was a huge step on the road to really digging into this ongoing task I've volunteered for. (Yeah, don't ever volunteer, but I've met a lot of very helpful people!) I've also been able to use applescript to allow me to standardize the size of the photos, rename them and then produce a thumb size image of each photo from the resized image while putting each into their required directories. Is there a database of script-fu programs I can look at 1.) to help learn the language, and 2.) that will allow me to automate certain stages of the placement of the 2 watermarks since each watermark will have to be placed in a different location on each photo in order to not interfere with the object of the photoin my case each photo will have a plane as the focal point. Thanks again, Gene ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

There will be scripts in all languages, also in script-fu/tiny-fu, so as to give you many examples. I don't know much more about scripting, but maybe also http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/Basic_Batch/ might be helpful Daniel signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
