A custom canvas preset is not a template. Unlike a template, it does not allow you to store any

content. A custom canvas preset allows you to store only canvas dimensions, resolution, color, and

texture.

You can delete a canvas preset by choosing the preset name from the Canvas Preset list box and

clicking the Delete button .

Understanding resolution

When you work with images in a digital workspace, it is helpful to understand the concept and applications

of resolution. Resolution refers to how Corel Painter measures, displays, saves, and prints images —

whether as small squares of color called “pixels” or as mathematical objects called “vectors.”

A document’s resolution affects both its appearance on your computer screen and its print quality. You can

specify a document’s resolution when you create a new document, save, or export a file.

Resolution and screen appearance

Most monitors have a resolution of 72 pixels-per-inch (ppi). The Corel Painter display default is 72 ppi,

which means that each pixel in the Corel Painter image occupies one pixel on your monitor. The display

resolution does not affect the document’s actual number of pixels-per-inch — it affects only how the image

is displayed on the monitor.

For example, a 300-ppi image is displayed on-screen at approximately four times its actual size. Because

each pixel in the Corel Painter image occupies one pixel on your monitor, and the monitor’s pixels are

approximately four times the size of the image’s pixels (72 ppi versus 330 ppi), the image must appear four

times larger on-screen in order to display all of the pixels. In other words, your 300-ppi document will be

printed at approximately one-quarter of its on-screen size. To view the image at its actual size, you can set

the zoom level to 25%.

If you set the dimensions in pixels and then change the number of pixels-per-inch (resolution), this change

will affect the size of the printed image. If you set your document size in inches, centimeters, points, or

picas and then change the resolution, the dimensions of the printed image will not be affected.
