Using Paint Shop Pro in Textile Design No longer in print but now available on CD ROM in PDF format versions 7 (illustrated above), 8 or 9. Our books on Using Paint Shop Pro in Textile Design have been very popular over several years. We produced the first when version 5 was launched in 1998 and followed with further editions for versions 6, 7, 8 and 9. The original manufacturers, JASC, were taken over by Corel two years ago and, since then, there have been three additional versions. Nobody has the time to keep up with this race so, reluctantly, we decided to produce no further versions. Available from Maggie & Clive Grey 7 Heath Farm Way, Ferndown, Dorset BH22 8JR, UK, Email . |
