No matter your photo editing expectations or expertise, PaintShop Pro 2022 makes it simple to create, organize and share your visual story,' said Chris Pierce, Director of Product for Photo and Digital Arts at Corel. 'PaintShop Pro has long been known for its depth and impressive professional photo power. But with this latest release, we've found new ways to make the entire creative editing process easier, and frankly more fun, for a full range of photo software users. We're leveraging the power of AI to simplify tedious tasks, re-imagining the photographer's flow through the application, and delivering new creative content to offer an exceptional experience from start to finish. The versatile set of tools in PaintShop Pro 2022 can help anyone make every shot, the best shot.'
