[Subject: [Gimp-user] Cannot open PSD -CMYK setting]

Hello Aneri.

You're getting that error because gimp does not (yet) support images in CMYK mode. You have a few options.

1. Download Krita and convert the psd to RGB or continue editing it in CMYK in Krita. (I image you don't really want to learn new software) Go to Image>Change Image Color Space. Select sRGB. Save the file with a new name. Maybe append it with RGB so you can the difference between and the original 2. Get a trial version of Photoshop CC to open and edit the file for the next 30 days.
3. Download a trial version of Corel-Draw and use the Corel Paint app for Windows.
3. Get the beta version of Affinity Photo for Windows.

Based on whatever your final output might be, I'd suggest going the Krita route, it's the only option you have that won't lock you in a trial version or pay-walled files. Is there no sticky for these kinds of user issues on GIMP forums?

I hope that one or two the listed solutions work for you :)

Thanks J

When I open an image, the resolution always occurs in 72 dpi but the real is
300, for example. How can I know the real resolution? Also if the image is in CMYK don?t give me that information

Thanks

Changing the resolution doesn't change much like I hoped it would. Everything
stays small on gimp even if it's big everywhere else. Do I just put the folder
in the themes as is? I must be missing something because selecting it in preferences isn't changing anything.

There you are. At 2736 x 1824 resolution you _will_ run into problems with GIMP.

A partial solution is to install a new theme from https://bitbucket.org/paynekj/paynekj-gimp-scripts/src/

2e8e87faf5eaaf6036e0d8b68ff9f6f37a3f0421/themes/?at=default.

Either Color-32.7z or Color-48.7z should do.

Subject: [Gimp-user] Create PDB Inputs? Message-ID:
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

In Python scripting you can use PF_XXX parameters in the register() function to
generate a settings window, but these are pretty limited. I've made my own UI
constructor to meet my needs.

So, because of this I only use PF_IMAGE and PF_DRAWABLE. However, this means the
only parameters that can be input into the plugin's PDB function is the image/layer. I've set up a value-check system so the plugin can run in 'non-interactive', but because of the lack of PDB support I'd have to import the
plugin's class from the actual file and call it's main(). How would I add inputs to my plugin as it's seen in the PDB without creating a
GUI? The gimpenums module clearly has things such as PDB_INT32, but they don't
seem to help.

I know you can use a gimpplugin.plugin class instead of the gimpfu register()
function for more complex operations, but I've found absolutely no documentation
on how to do that.

Subject: [Gimp-user] Cannot open PSD -CMYK setting Message-ID:
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

Hello,

I am trying to open a PSD in GIMP. Although I am aware that not all layers of a
PSD might open in this case the whole psd is not opening due to some CMYK setting error.

Check attachement for the same.

Is there any workaround to open these kinds of PSDs?

Thanks
