T-Shirt Design and best ways to approach projects using applications |

So I have some experience in Gimp and have designed over (100 ) designs, mainly simple text, although I am still very much so a beginner.
I have very little experience with designing in Inkscape but it appears pretty straight forward.
Here's the situation:
I have a design that was designed in Gimp, which contains a high resolution full color image as well as a text font I used from Gimp.
My dilemma is I want vector quality text but i dont want to vectorize the entire design, as that will change the aesthetic of the image which I want to remain realistic looking.
I am not certain how to go about using Gimp and Inkscape in combination in this case with one another. Should the text from Inkscape be imported into Gimp or vice versa?
Also, if I take a vectorized image and output it to .png wouldn't the quality be compromised?
When its finalized I need to produce a .png file for use with Merch by Amazon.
Again, the goal is to get the crisp vector text and maintain the image quality and design I currently have in Gimp.
Sorry for the long post.

hi,
so, how's the rough/pixelated line smoothing in GIMP?
I just got done trying to use Corel PaintShop - do I have to paint a smooth line?
doesn't seem to work very well on black/white line drawings.
thanks

Finding duplicate/similar pictures |

Recently I was looking for a means of identifying duplicate and similar photographs. Dupeguru would appear to fit the requirement, but I was unable to find a version to download which was compatible with Ubuntu 18.04.
During my search I came across https://similar.pictures/index.html by Vitali Fedulov. A trial of this very quickly identified similar pictures in a folder of approximately 2,500 images.
I hope that in the future this will be extended to enable use of the results which it finds.

Genius tablet - minor problem |

I have a Genius EasyPen i405x. Whenever I open GIMP it is greyed-out in Input Devices. If I go to LibreOfficeDraw it works. Re-opening GIMP shows it in Input Devices and it then works. This is only a minor irritation, but a solution may help others.
GIMP 2.10.12
Ubuntu 18.04
More importantly, I think it is overdue that there be a vote of thanks to Rich, Ofnuts and others who give their unstinting help on this and other websites.

High Pass filtering 2.8 vs. 2.10 |

The manual way of making a High Pass Filter (that is also used in RobA's script) is:
- duplicate image
- desaturate
- invert
- reduce opacity to 50%
- gaussian blur
- merge down
When you do the steps in 2.8, the image becomes 50% gray at step 4.
This is not true for 2.10, unless you set the Blendmodes to Legacy.
I know Gimp 2.10 has a GEGL High Pass Filter, but i want to understand the "wiring under the board".
The only 2.10 procedure i can up with is:
- duplicate image
- desaturate
- invert
- set layermode to 'Grain Merge'
- gaussian blur
- merge down
So what is going on ? What has changed that makes the old way dysfunctional ?

hi,
Maybe you can answer this.
does GIMP export/save to type PDF/A FORMAT?
I can't really find any info on what type of pdf GIMP can save to.
thanks.
