[I’ve been using GIMP for a couple of months.  After creating a new document 11x17 inches, 300dpi, I export a pdf and take it to the printer who says the document is actually over 50” wide.  I’ve spent a lot of time trying to get this right, including watching several instructional videos. 

Maybe when I bring artwork that was shot on my iPhone into GIMP the canvas size changes?  I don’t understand what’s happening here.

Can you help?

Thank you.

Hi,
When creating a preset in Curves using the option:
Save the current settings as named preset, where is this preset saved? in which file?

I searched the drive C:/  but returned nothing in the search.

Thank you

Hi everyone

I have a set of Clip Studio Paint brushes in the .sut format.
I can't open them with GIMP.

Do you know how to convert those files into .gbr or any other readable format?

Thank you!

jpeg is 349 X 459. How do I print it so it fills up 8-1/2" X 11 sheet?

I did this once before, but the image just prints a lot smaller.

Using HP Office-Jet Pro 6970. Can't remember what printer I used before.

I have the following in a file, but how do i turn it. (see screenshot) using "APR" I ant to tun it around so it will for and looks like 3rd picture.

I need to change a few of the single color ones, and then change the few in the one with all of them.

I want to change APR, MEI, JUN, JUl and AUG.

I did add one to how I need it.

Just need help with only one, the others I will then trying to do them.

I have spent the last 6 HOURS trying to do one simple thing, transform a rectangular image into a right triangle without distorting the pixel placement vertically. I have used EVERY transform tool, looked through every filter, and for the life of me I cannot figure out how to do this. So PLEASE if anyone can tell me if this is possible, and if so how I can do it, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
    I am adding two signatures from jpg into a pdf document (well no, I changed one of the jpgs to xcf, but this problem occurs with the 2nd sig added, no matter the format).
1. Open pdf as layers
2. open the signature file as layers
3. put the signature file onto the document
4. Select Darken only and position the signature
5. Select "merge down" for the signature layer
6. It saves fine into the PDF

BUT, when I do this for the 2nd signature, as soon as I do "merge down", the signature vanishes. I have a feeling this has something to do with layers getting in each other's way or something, but I have no idea how to fix.

I also put in two text fields near by with the date.  I did not need to use merge down or darken for those fields and they also worked with the single signature as well as the vanished signature. 

What am I doing wrong?

I have a map image that has a very winding walking trail.  I wanted to find the distance of the trail. I was imagining using Gimp to capture the graphic of the winding trail, converting it into a line, and then stretching it out straight so I can see the distance of the trail.

What would be the steps to do that in Gimp?

Thanks,

I just updated from GIMP 2.8 to 2.10.22.  In this version of GIMP, when it reaches the edge, it adds a hyphen (-) and then goes down to the next line.  While I am sure that is useful for some, it is ruining things for me.  I cannot find any options for text and searches for how to stop hyphenation in GIMP has not found anything?  Is there any way to turn this off?  It seems really weird for it to have been added without the ability to stop it.

Hello.

I have this black and white 225x225 pixels image that I want to print in a Tshirt, for that I need to add a Halftone effect, so I add a Newsprint filter with the Anti-alias oversampling factor of 0 so the Circle pattern (Period 1, Angle 45º) looks sharp enough to be burned in a silk screen, the image looks great (pic_1), I do a Color to alpha operation to remove the white background and then export the image in a .png format, but when I open the image in an image viewer or in this case Inkscape, the image looks with an anti-alias effect (pic_2), wich is no good for my purpose.
How do I retain this sharp (no anti-alias) effect?

I am using Gimp 2.10.18 in Ubuntu-Studio 20.04
