Title: Hello and a small request Post by: jwcat on August 20, 2009, 01:20:37 PM I have used Qimage for years and posted little. For the last six months, I have been off in Mac-land. I bought the SE version when RAW became possible. I never used it as I have CS3, Lightroom 2 and the NIK suite of tools. I do not like to over-process my files so I stay out of CS3 if possible. I have always used Qimage as a sharpen/size and print program.
Request; Would some one stickie a primer of a workflow using Qimage as the sole tool? I searched and could not find one. I like to use a small to medium contrast curve to wake up my images. If I wanted to export (and re-import for printing) to NIK Silver Effects how can I do that? Thanks, John Title: Re: Hello and a small request Post by: Terry-M on August 20, 2009, 02:47:27 PM Hi John,
Quote I do not like to over-process my files Me and a few others here too ;)Quote Would some one stickie a primer of a workflow using Qimage as the sole tool? You could start here http://ddisoftware.com/tech/qimage/qimage-raw-processing-a-guide/That will start you off with the raw processing and section 8 "Next Steps" gives you a clue as to what can be done next. Really, you may find that you rarely need any other software in view of the first quote above. Quote If I wanted to export (and re-import for printing) to NIK Silver Effects how can I do that? how can I do that? That's easy too.First set NIK Silver Effects as your Photo Editor in the Utilities menu. When you want to use that program, convert the raw image to a tif or jpeg by placing it in the queue, right click & select convert. Then right click on the converted image thumbnail and select Send to Photo Editor. The NIK program will open with the image, do your edits, and save or save-as. When you go back to Q, click the "OK when finished editing" and Q will refresh the thumbs - done. Hope that helps :) Terry.

I think the reason it was put there was to enable non-Studio users to see what they can expect if they upgraded.There is a link on the Qimage web site, Raw Support section. If we ask nicely, I'm sure Mike would put a similar link in the Q-SE section of the forum too. :D Terry.
