  Use Font designed in inkscape?
Posted by: fauveboy - 03-28-2019, 01:15 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

I've designed a font I want to use in Inkscape. At the moment I have to design each word I want to use and then export it from Inkscape and then drop it into gimp. Is there a way I can just " Upload" the alphabet in the of the font I've designed so I can just type words I want to use in gimp?

Many many thanks,

  How can I do angle-based colors (like the Pink Floyd "Dark Side of the Moon" album)
Posted by: ktaherig - 03-28-2019, 07:44 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Good morning, everybody.

I'd like to ask how to draw colors in selections that are based on angles, for example, like on the cover of Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon" album, as such:
https://sxmfeed.files.wordpress.com/2016....jpg?w=800

The width of the rainbow expands as it goes further away from the prism, and the width of each individual color expands right along with it at 1/6th the width of the total width at any given point along the rainbow. I know that I can easily hand-draw it, but then the ratios wouldn't be right, and it would look really, really, awfully, terribly unprofessional.

Also, while I'm on the topic, I'd like to also ask how I can do fuzzy blends of the same thing, for example such as something like this:
https://media.tenor.com/images/cca894af5.../tenor.png
or this:
https://i.ytimg.com/vi/YBpB9kzVkH4/hqdefault.jpg
etc.

Thank you all in advance

As an antidote to the awful java coding I currently have to do at work, I had to write some python, so here is ofn-engraving that takes you from this:

At the usual place.

Enjoy, and report bugs/problems.

  Need help installing resynthesizer plugin
Posted by: erlendo89 - 03-27-2019, 08:58 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - No Replies

Hi!
I recently installed Gimp(2.10.8) on my computer and I am having trouble installing the resynthesizer plugin.
I downloaded the plugin, unzipped and put the .exe and .py files in the plug-ins folder, but the Heal selection still does not show up in the filters menu. I was previosly using another computer and had no problem with this.
Also noticed that the python-fu entry is missing. Is that the problem and how do I fix it?
This is on windows 7

  Blurry text, especially when outputting to PDF
Posted by: Reasonable Listener - 03-25-2019, 02:53 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (12)

No matter what settings I use (at least the settings that I am aware of), when I am outputting a file, the resulting files are blurry and hard to read.

I'm uploading examples so you can see what I mean. In this case I typed up some nonsense in Word, printed it out and scanned it as a PDF. Then I opened the PDF in GIMP and made no changes to the file. I outputted the files as both a PDF (soft and blurry), and a PNG (okay, but prints out soft and blurry). I have even tried printing directly from GIMP and it didn't improve anything.

If it helps to know this, the original document was scanned at 400x400 black and white.

How do I fix this problem? I tried inputting the original PDF into GIMP at various DPIs and it didn't change anything. Am I just using the wrong software for this sort of thing?

  Changes not being applied
Posted by: Kjen - 03-25-2019, 10:37 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (8)

Hi everyone,

I am simply trying to make a picture of a molecular formula darker. When I use the brightness-contrast tool or the levels tool, the preview shows the desired result, but when I press okay it reverts to the original. What can I do to remedy this?

  How do I create a color to alpha background to make a png?
Posted by: Steve_Gesn - 03-24-2019, 11:22 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I am trying to make a logo in which I need an alpha background so only my logo shows and nothing else. The attachment is an example of what I'm trying to do. When I made this in 2.8 I started with a blank page and simply clicked on Colors --> Color to alpha and it would do so. Then I just had to copy and paste a selection from a rectangle or eclipse for free select. and wham I got my PNG. Now it appears that is no longer possible. I've tried everything I know but I can't seem to get that invisible background. Any suggestions will be appreciated. 
Thanks.
