  PDF Manipulation
Posted by: scetcher - 03-01-2021, 10:33 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Newbie, patience requested.
I have a PDF sheet of aircraft decals. It is A3 size and I would like to take individual parts from it, keeping the scale, to fit onto an A4 sheet for watersliding.
I have tried cropping the parts and repasting them, but I cannot remove them from the complete sheet.
Is specific area removal from a PDF possible in Gimp 2.10 please.

  fractal flames
Posted by: denzjos - 03-01-2021, 10:02 AM - Forum: Other graphics software - No Replies

Apophysis is a windows application made in delphi for creating, editing and rendering fractal flames. The creations can be saved in as png file with a transparent background and one can load the file in gimp.The version 202.09 is fast on my computer (windows 10 64 bit / intel core i7 / Nvidia Geforce 930 MX graphics card). The version 7x has more possibilities but is slow on my computer.

  Please help losing colours
Posted by: msmalik681 - 02-28-2021, 05:49 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Hi I have a issue with gimp 2.10 whenever I save a indexed image it will automatically cut any unused colours. Since I am developing games my images should all use the same palette or it will cause issues. Can anyone help please.

  Combining RGB layers
Posted by: GnR - 02-27-2021, 08:50 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Some of my photographs have a chromatic aboration problem where some colours are out of sync with others. The problem colour appears to be green but it might be more tricky than that. Assuming it is green..

I thought it might be possible to decompose the problem image into colour layers in GIMP, move the pixels of one layer over slightly, and recombine the layers. I don't know exactly which colour is out of sync or how much to move them so it is an experiment.

For the first attempt I decompiled the original image into RGB layers, which produces three greyscale layers. 

Unfortunately the greys do not help me to see how much one colour is out of sync with the others, so I converted each layer to RGB and colourised them as the colour they are supposed to represent (red = hue 0, green = hue 120, blue = hue 240). I now have three distinct coloured layers that I can combine in various ways. I also created a solid white background layer.

However, I cannot find how to merge these layers to reproduce the original pre-decomposed image. Which transparency and layer modes should merge the red/green/blue layers to re-create the original image?

  SVG text on path missing
Posted by: MEGAPHONIC - 02-27-2021, 05:23 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Hi there,

I'm a new user of GIMP, I want to import a bunch of SVG files (made with Inkscape) and convert them to jpeg files but when I open them any text that I have put on a path is missing for some reason!

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Cheers,
MEGA.

  Unable to uninstall completely
Posted by: Kjellinux - 02-26-2021, 02:47 AM - Forum: Windows - Replies (2)

I installed GIMP 2.10.22 on Windows 10, choosing Swedish as language. After searching for tutorials I realised there was very little in Swedish. I had also changed things around and wanted a new fresh standard installation that would look like in the tutorials.

I uninstalled GIMP and installed it again, this time choosing English. To my surprise I got a Swedish version again, and the changes I had made were still there. I uninstalled again and this time searched for and removed all files containing "GIMP". Again, the new installation was in Swedish and my changes were still there.

How do I uninstall GIMP completely so that I can have a fresh new installation in English with the default layout?

  JPEG to GIMP to PDF Quality Question
Posted by: SavedByTheLamb - 02-25-2021, 07:58 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

Hi,
I need to scan a massive load of textbooks, and am trying to figure out the best way to do it.

I have made some test scans to JPEG, 300dpi, Colour. Which look kind of OK, pixilated obviously when zoomed in.

But I imported those same JPEGs to GIMP, and exported as a PDF, and it made them look a load better, smoother.

The 4 JPEGS are 1.95 MB together

But the PDF from GIMP is 13.2 MB

I gather this might have something to do with GIMP converting the JPEGs into Bitmap (is it?).

I just tried scanning one of the pages at 300 dpi BMP and it looks all pixilated like the JPEG's do.

I want the nice smooth PDF but without the much bigger file size. Is that possible?...

Cheers

  My pattern box is off of my layer box!
Posted by: HavingTooMuchFun - 02-25-2021, 12:55 PM - Forum: Older Gimp versions (2.8, 2.6....) - Replies (4)

I'm using Gimp 2.8.22. I just brought it up, and the pattern box has vanished from the layer box where it has always previously existed. I haven't done any updates to my computer or any part thereof. I tried looking this up, and found descriptions of drag bars and drag handles that don't seem to exist no matter how much I hover and click and try to drag. Could someone please tell me how to get the pattern box back where it belongs? And maybe how to keep it there? Thanks! :-)
