Hi, I am asking about the brush dialog box. I cannot get the brushes inside the dialog box to be anything other than very tiny. I have seen in pictures that you can get the previews on the right to be bigger, but I cannot find a way to do that. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

A lot of you probably already know who I am. My name is Beaver and I make third party GEGL text styling plugins for Gimp. You can install my plugins by following instructions on https://github.com/LinuxBeaver or going to each filters Github release page and compiling and installing binaries.

Is there a way to convert the online HTML doc to a pdf file?

Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Gimp 2.10.32
Computer memory 6 GB
pagefile.sys size 10,485,760,000 bytes

What is the maximum file size GIMP can handle?

I tried to load a TIFF file, size 4,291,384,074 bytes
GIMP did not crash, but it failed to handle the file
The attachments show what happened.

   
   
   

Hi, I installed Lama Cleaner using these commands in Ubuntu 22.04

In Gimp is there a way to scale an image down without losing image clarity?

I have some images in various layers. I flattened them, then scaled the result down from 6.88 inches wide to 6.5 inches wide (with the height also scaling down automatically in proportion).  But the image clarity on screen before scaling down was better than after scaling down. 

Thanks for any assistance.

I think I see how, now. The problem was that when I scaled down, I did so by changing the image size directly, while the resolution (300 ppi) remained the same.  So by reducing the size, i was also reducing the total number of pixels in the image. So instead, I changed the image size by increasing the resolution.  By raising resolution from 300 ppi to 317, the image automatically shrank to 6.511 inches wide (in printing). Because the total number of pixels in the image remained the same, compressing more pixels into an inch, the total size of the image decreases. But you have the same number of pixels, so resolution is not lost.  I think...

I'm writing a game for the open source Uzebox games console. Its tile conversion program expects the input to be one row of 8x8 pixel tiles. Currently, I have to prepare the graphics working by an 8x8 grid and then manually cut the sprites and other graphical resources into individual 8x8 tiles and then manually move each tile into a single horizontal row to keep the tile conversion program happy. Pretty tedious stuff.

This process would be much easier if there was a GIMP plugin to automate most of this process by turning a rectangular GIMP selection into a new image composed of a single horizontal row of (8x8, or whatever the user specifies) tiles.

Does such a plugin already exist?

Thanks!

Hi,

How can I know that when I export a gimp image to pdf, that the original gimp resolution is preserved in the pdf?  

I created gimp images measuring 6.88 inches by 10.5 inches at 300 x 300 ppi. 

After I export one of those images to pdf and open the pdf in Adobe Acrobat, and set Adobe to display at 300px/inch, the image on screen visually appears MUCH bigger than 6.88 inches by 10.5 inches.  Maybe 3 times larger on the screen than that. That seems to mean the resolution of the pdf is far down from the resolution of the original gimp image, right? Yet Adobe has a little box at the lower left of the screen saying the image is 6.88 inches by 10.5 inches. 

So has the resolution gone down in the pdf?  

Thanks for any assistance.

GIMP 2.10.32 Release 1 (Apple Silicon) works with Ventura?

Been wanting to upgrade from Monterey to Ventura, but every upgrade on Mac has been a disaster.

Does this work please?
