[Gimp-user] Gimp help download
I have downloaded gimp-help 2.4.2.tar file but not quite sure where this should be extracted / opened to so that Gimp picks the help files up-- Regards,Richard ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] CMYK/ RGB printing
I have noticed a considerable difference between printing on a CMYK printer and a RGB printer. Is there a way to view the same picture both ways so as to adjust so as to keep the colours as true as possible? I am sure that there is a better way of posing this question but I am afraid my knowledge of the subject is really limited. I would value ideas please.

[Gimp-user] Colour management
Does Gimp have any thing like the colour management system that Photoshop has , which I believe can be used to set the system to a standard setting to ensure that periferals such as monitors,cameras., printers etc are all operating on the same colour values.

[Gimp-user] Watemarking photographs
Kevin wrote--- With regard to ImageMagick Make sure you downloaded one of the executable installer packages and not the source code of ImageMagick. I noticed that it might be a bit confusing as to which package to get since there are five different versions available on the download page located at http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php#windows. The fifth version offered is only useful if you have a 64-bit computer. If you don't have that, you need to use one of the first four links. If you are still having problems, it might help to know which installer package you are trying to use, which version of Windows you are using, and some more details of what happens when you try to run the installer including the contents of any error messages you may be seeing. That is about all I can suggest for now. I don't use ImageMagick under Windows so I haven't tried installing any of the Windows installer packages. Thank you Kevin for your help. I did finally get ImageMagick viewer to run but after it hijacked a fax that came in and only showed the first page of the fax,I decided to scrap it ! I am sure that it is a great program when you get to know how to use it ! I found two answers to my watermarking problem -- (a) Gimp-Tools-Text ---which I can use to put a name etc on the picture. and (b) I downloaded the Gimp watermark.scm plugin which also does the job.

[Gimp-user] Watermarking photographs---
I have been asked to watermark photos for sale on the internet. Google shows several programs for doing this and also shows that Photoshop and Paintshop pro have the ability to do this. I have been unable to find any information about this in the Gimp manual.Your kind assistance please.Richard ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

[Gimp-user] Blending----
I have a photo of a Mountain range which I want to use as a background to advertise a bed and breakfast lodge. I have placed four photographs,one showing a picture of the the lodge,the others, showing shots of the accommodation.These are as different layers,positioned , one in each corner of the background. What I would like to achieve is to blend the edges of those photo's into the background so that the edges are semi-transparent and show the mountain in a soft sort of light. Your help would be much appreciated,Richard ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] Input devices--
I am a new but very enthuastic user of GIMP but find it difficult to do very fine detail with the use of my Optical Mouse. I have read somewhere of a pen or stylis as input devices and wondered if these are available as alternatives to the mouse. (I have tried increasing the magnification and using small brushes which does help.) I am using Win XP Home Ed. Usb 2.0 etc Thank you for a most interesting mailing list.
