GNU Image Manipulation Program. GIMP User Manual Authors and Contributors I. Getting Started 1. Introduction 1. Welcome to GIMP 1.1. Digital painting improvements 2.9. Digital photography improvements 2.10. Effects 2.11. Usability improvements 2.12. File formats support. Mar 01, 2014  GIMP Version: 2.8.4 Operating System: Mac OS GIMP Experience: Beginner Level Anyone know if this exists? I can find the online manual, and could print.

With the upcoming GIMP 2.10 release we intend to finally close the time gap between releases of source code, installers, and the user manual. This means that we need a more coordinated effort between the GIMP developers team and the GIMP User Manual team.

For the past several months we’ve already been working on GIMP mostly in bugfix mode. It’s time to start updating the user manual to match all the changes in GIMP 2.10, and we would appreciate your help with that.

What Needs Doing¶

• Updating the content. There have been a lot of changes since 2.8. For quite a while, we’ve been maintaining a structured list of changes in 2.10 specifically to assist technical writers in updating the user manual.
• Translating the content. At some point we’d like to “freeze” the documentation so that translators could start updating localized versions of the user manual. Since GIMP is hosted at GNOME, you would have to contact your local GNOME translation team to get involved.
• Resurrecting PDF builds. Years ago we chose DocBook/XML as a way to build both web (HTML) and printable (PDF) copies of the user manual from a single source. Unfortunately, there appear to be some issues with building PDF files presently. Someone would have to investigate, what’s causing this, and act accordingly.
• Adding Search to the Online Docs. We’ve heard a number of requests to add basic search to the online docs. If you have an idea how to do that, please contact us.

How To Contribute¶

Technical documentation on hacking on the user manual is available in the respective Git repository.

The primary communication environment for all things documentation in the project is the gimp-docs@ mailing list. We encourage you to talk to fellow team members publicly about which part of the documentation you are hacking on. This is because efficient collaborative effort requires full transparence.

If you have technical questions about features in GIMP 2.10, you can use either gimp-docs@ mailing list or join the IRC channel, ask your question, and stick around for the answer.

We do not yet have an estimated time of arrival for GIMP 2.10, but there’s only so much time we can spend on completing this release before we can move to the next development cycle.

This discussion is connected to the gimp-docs-list.gnome.org mailing list which is provided by the GIMP developers and not related to gimpusers.com.

This is a read-only list on gimpusers.com so this discussion thread is read-only, too.

Downloading the user manual

I can't seem to find a way to download the user's manual, as with mostmanuals (in PDF), as opposed to having to use it manually online.

Am I missing something, or is that just a Gimp fact of life?

Thanks.

Eric

Dear Eric,

tl;dr: we're not providing PDFs for download.

We provided PDF versions of the manual for a while. The process involvednever became stable and made it out of the work-in-progress state. Thatis, we can create PDFs for most latin languages, but there is noautomated process available to provide them on our homepage fordownload. The PDFs are somewhat usable (readable, printable), but farfrom perfect.

Same goes for email. I tested the Cruz on my home network and a few public networks without any trouble.You can connect to the internet to shop for ebooks, download free ebooks, browse the web, send and receive email, shop, stream radio, watch video (using Skyfire), and whatever else you can think of online.The Android web browser it comes with is fairly limited, but there are other options out there. You can either use a browser, use the pre-installed eMail app, or find a new app. As mentioned in the apps section above, the problem with the Cruz is that installing apps is hit or miss. Cruz reader manual download. Bottom LineThe falls into an interesting sub-category as far as Android tablets/ereaders are concerned.

Therefore you see only HTML versions of the manual.

If you can spare some free time I encourage you to have a look at ourproject with a git clone. If all dependencies are installed, a simple:

./autogen.sh make pdf

will start creating PDFs. Keep in mind that this is for user manualdevelopers only and not supposed to be run by an end-user (-reader).

Kind Regards,

Thanks for the information, though I regret the answer.

As I had Gimp recommended to me to use to create covers for the ebooks Iwrite, I was simply hoping to have a manual available that I could easilyread and search. I am not a developer of any sort, and have no idea what a'git clone' is or what dependencies are.

I'll see if I can find online tutorials somewhere that explain (hopefully)how to do the only four things I am really interested in: (1) being ableto resize an image where I control both height and width [right now thescale feature seems to allow me to change one or the other and then Gimpkeeps the original proportions];

Something like this:

(2) adding text [title/author];

this (unfortunately only part of the reference, but perhaps stillhelpful):

(3) > superimposing either parts of several photographs onto a blank background,or parts of one photo on top of another,

You want to work with layers:

and (4) winding up with a jpeg
file [required for ebook publishing via Amazon, etc.].

and this:

My partner of 30 years died unexpectedly just under 20 years ago, but helived by the principle that if you don't ask, you don't get. So if you canpoint me in the direction of solutions to any of the above issues, thatwould be greatly appreciated.
