“These days, there is certainly no shortage of graphics editors
for Linux. Several already come with most Linux distributions, and
many others can easily be downloaded from the Internet. Casual
users, however, may find some of these editors too complex to set
up or use. Other editors are more specialized and have more limited
functionality. Well, if you’re in need of an easy- to-use
photo-editing package, Corel’s Photo-Paint 9 for Linux is worthy of
serious consideration.”
“Corel Photo-Paint is truly a fully featured photo-editing
suite. It is especially well-suited for users who are already
familiar with the Corel Draw Graphics Suite on Windows platforms.
It includes image-scanning capabilities, batch processing of
images, direct Internet publishing, and even the ability to create
PDF files. Any feature you’d expect from Adobe’s Photoshop, or
other similar package, can be found in Photo-Paint.”
“All in all, Corel Photo-Paint 9 for Linux is a good choice for
anyone who wants a free application with basic photo-editing and
touchup capabilities. While many may prefer GIMP for quick and
dirty image editing, Corel Photo-Paint may become the new favorite
for batch processing of images and complex graphical
effects.”
