It probably won't unless someone (maybe you?) gives us specific
information about those PDF files. Like what's different about them.

  Hmm. I also notice that the title on your toolbox is "Toolbox -
Layers" while mine is titled "Toolbox - Tool Options".
  How do I get the Layers toolbox?

  You show the Airbrush tool as selected, and there are a number of
tabs. How do I get all of those tabs onto the toolbox?

  How do I get the "layer menu options sidebar"?

You do the same thing in GIMP. Open an image. Add a layer. Then fill with
white. In the layer menu options sidebar you'll see Mode and Opacity. Like
Photoshop, Mode allows you to change the layer attribute - Normal, overlay
etc. while opacity does what it says. :)

Hope that helps.

In the layers dialog there is a slider bar that enables you to adjust
the opacity of any layer independently of the rest (no need to add
another layer, either).

Here is a screenshot:

It is less than trivial to adjust opacity in GIMP.

[Gimp-user] Adjusting the opacity of a layer

2016-10-19 Thread James Moe 
opensuse 42.1 (linux)
gimp 2.8.16

  To adjust an image for background use, I would add a layer filled with
white, then adjust the opacity until the image has been faded to some
desired level.
  I searched the docs. It recommended using the Mode option from the
Layer menu. There is no Mode option.

  In Photoshop changing the opacity of a layer is trivial.
  How do I do so in GIMP?

[Gimp-user] Importing PDF into Gimp 2.8.18

2016-10-19 Thread David Corbitt 
I’m not a code expert at all but I use GIMP to modify and color correct images 
and PDF documents. The tool set is good, flexible, and very powerful. I was 
using version 2.8.10 until I recently upgraded to 2.8.18. My platform is a late 
2009 iMac running Sierra (OS 10.12). The problem I am now experiencing is I can 
no longer import certain PDFs to GIMP. It used to be really easy but now, no 
joy. I hope this will be fixed soon. I really like GIMP’s feature set and I 
hope this current problem is an easy fix. Attached is a screen shot of an error 
message when trying to open some PDFs.
