Can anyone direct me to good guide for Corel Paintshop Pro X7 Ultimate? I just snagged a copy from B&H on sale for $39.99 (sale ends today) and I want to get up to speed ASAP.

I had Adobe Photoshop version 4 or 5 back in the mid/late 90s, then a little later Corel Paintshop Pro X3, then most recently Photoshop Elements v9 but I never did a good job of mastering any. PSE 9 won't open the NEF RAW files for my Nikon D610 so I had to upgrade and couldn't decide between PSE 13 or Paintshop Pro X7 until I saw the sale at B&H. The new Corel Paintshop Pro X7 has a number of features I am interested in and the $50 savings was too good to pass up!

I pre-ordered this on Amazon. It hasn't shipped yet so I don't know if it is any good or not.

in case the link doesn't work the book name is:

I added this book to my wish list. I did a bit of a search & found the author has written manuals for all of the previous editions of PSP and all of those were rated 4-4.5 stars so it appears the book should be fairly useful.

I have both the Diane Koers and the Ken McMahon books but prefer Ken's (X6) and use it with Paintshop X7.

Cool! I'll check it out. I jumped from x3 to x7 so I'm not sure what all was covered incrementally in between. It is good to know that x6 is still helpful with x7.
