  Outline Border around extremities of Text
Posted by: oldnwise - 10-18-2024, 09:46 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (8)

Hi

I would like to create an outlined border around the extremities of text similar to the red border in the attachment uploaded.  I can add borders around individual letters.  Struggling with adding a border around the extremities of the text.

Can this be done in GIMP?

  font tool options not loading
Posted by: mr_seth - 10-18-2024, 02:45 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hi Everyone,

I've been using GIMP for a while now but something odd just happened and no matter what I try I can't seem to fix it. I was editing the letter spacing of a font in a document, reducing the size with the down arrows, when the tool options box, that in the upper right disappeared. I can't now get it back. 

I'm using a Mac Air with Sonoma, and my version of GIMP is 2.10.34. The area I'm trying to restore is the upper right box of the font options. Now there is only the fonts list, not the options for altering size, width, line spacing etc of whichever font is selected. While I can select fonts, and can use the font tool, the additional text editing options are missing, irrespective of what I tab I click, or when restoring the default settings. When I reload older documents, or go back with my undo history, nothing changes.

Am I missing something? I feel like I can't see the wood for the trees!  Huh

Thanks in advance,

Seth

  Export settings for print on demand
Posted by: Luperoni - 10-16-2024, 08:30 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hello,

I'm new to creating prints for my original paintings and have some questions about file exporting. 

I'm using Gelato and they mention a couple things. First is 300 DPI which it is so thats cool. Second is that I should export the file as a PDF/X4. Is that just PDF? I dont see an X4 option in the File Types menu when exporting. 

Third it mentions "If working in RGB, tag your image files with an sRGB profile. When exporting, save them as PDF/X4 files with a "GRACoL2006_Coated1v2.icc" output intent to maintain color fidelity."

I downloaded that color assignment and tried assigning it to my image but I got an error that says: ICC profile validation failed: Color profile is not for RGB color space"

Do I need to export as a PDF first, then assign the color profile? What am I doing wrong?

I appreciate any help!

  Change color of edited text
Posted by: IndiePubber - 10-15-2024, 10:52 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Hi, I used to participate as needed in the old GIMPUsers forum, but I see it's archived now.

Five or six years ago I used some iteration of 2.8 (I think) to produce the cover for my first indie-pubbed novel. I think it came out fairly well.

   

I'm a slow writer and editor. Only now am I preparing the cover for the second-in-series. I'm basing it on the first one, but it's been so long I've forgotten how I did it and I'm having to relearn as I go. It's coming back to me, but I can't recall how I produced the yellow-ochre quasi-drop shadows you see with the title.

I know I copied the edited black title text onto a new layer, moved it where I wanted it, and recolored it, but I'm stuck on how to change the black to the yellow-ochre.

Here's where I've gotten to, and I beg pardon because the image is posting as a link, and not as an image:


.bmp   Strong as Death title.bmp (Size: 183.9 KB / Downloads: 154)

I've tried the Fill tool, but it only recolors the rectangular background of the layer. I imagine the right method has to do with masks and so on, but I can't recall the knack of it. Could some kind person lead me through it again?

  Clone tool
Posted by: gmacari - 10-15-2024, 08:17 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Hi there
I'm a complete newbie with Gimp. I'm trying to use the "Clone tool" to eliminate some text on an image. I'm using Gimp on a Mac.

Here is the video:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/13zPKJFH...sp=sharing

Steps:
1: Choose the "Clone tool" from the menu
2: Select my clone area (white part of the image) and then click the "command" key and then "left" mouse click
3: Move mouse over the text I want to eliminate by pressing the "left" mouse continuously.

Thanks

Gerry

  How to stop toolbar icon from changing?
Posted by: Backslay - 10-11-2024, 09:33 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

Hey, I just had to reinstall Windows and when I installed gimp, something weird started happening.

The icon was flag gray instead of brown-ish and detailed. I managed to somehow use this detailed toolbar icon with flat colored tool icons (pencil, selection, etc), because that's how it was before the reinstall. I simply dragged the dog icon files from Color to Symbolic, thus making everything flat gray but the toolbar icon.

One thing I can't figure out, is how to stop the toolbar icon from changing whenever I open a file. It adds like a minature canvas to the icon, and I'd like it to stay as just the dog, because that's how it acted before the reinstall.

Was I simply using a different version? Or do I need to do something specific for the toolbar icon to not change at all?
The version I'm using right now is 2.10.38 if I'm not mistaken.

Thanks in advance!
