Corel PaintShop Pro 2022 Ultimate is designed with performance, ease-of-use, and creativity at the forefront. Highly effective features and tools powered by artificial intelligence (AI) make creating something truly original, achievable.
What’s New in PaintShop Pro 2022 Ultimate?
NEW! Frame Tool. The all-new Frame Tool makes placing raster objects into shapes quick, easy and intuitive. Draw frames to use as handy placeholders or draw frames over a selected object, image or text for a polished result.
New! AI Background Replacement. AI Background Replacement offers a fun new way to swap out the background in portraits of people. Simply choose a portrait-style photo, and let the AI do the work of selecting the background. You can then refine or customize the selection for the effect you want, and swap in one of the preset backgrounds or use one or your own images for the background—from your favorite beach scene, to cityscapes, landscapes, portrait-studio backgrounds, and more.
New! AI Portrait Mode. Eliminate distractions and put the focus on the people in your photos. AI Portrait Mode offers an easy way to apply a professional-looking depth of field effect to portrait-style photos. AI automatically identifies the subject of the photo, leaving the perfect buffer for the blur, bokeh, and focus settings you choose.
Enhanced! Instant Effects—AI-Powered. Instant Effects offer even more ways to enhance your photos with Color Match and Smooth Image controls for AI-Powered effects. Smooth Image lets you control the level of detail when you apply an AI-Powered effect, preserving clear edges while blending areas of similar color. Color Match lets you control the balance between the style color and the original image colors.
Enhanced! Usability. The Welcome tab has been enhanced with you in mind, offering a helpful new Workspace tab with built-in tutorials and learning content to help you master the product with ease. An improved design and new thumbnail previews for recent files promotes intuitive navigation and seamless experience.
NEW! HEIC/HEIF file Support. Enjoy new file support for HEIC and HEIF file format. Upload your images captured with an Apple iPhone or iPad without converting the file format.
New! Creative Content. At the very core of PaintShop Pro is creativity. Which is why we’ve added new brushes, color palettes, gradients, patterns, and picture tubes. Download the new patterns from the Welcome tab, and find the rest of the new content already built into PaintShop Pro.
