Installing Brushes for Paint Shop Pro

Jasc Paint Shop Pro brushes cannot be used in other design software, just as other brushes will not work in PSP. Take the time to make sure you are downloading the correct brush files. The Brush Search Engine on vBrush can lead you to plenty of brush sites.

Once you find a set of brushes you enjoy, download the file, saving it to a memorable location. Chances are that the files will be zipped, so you may need to obtain WinZIP or WinRAR if you do not already possess them. Both of the software have never ending trial versions, I believe, and will be more than adequate for everyday use. In order to unzip the files, you can just right click on the downloaded files and find the "Unzip To Here" option.

Copy all the brush files. You will now need to find C:\Program Files\Jasc Software Inc\Paint Shop Pro\Brushes, or whatever your Paint Shop Pro brush folder is. Once you stumble upon it, paste all the files into the folder. Next time you start Paint Shop Pro, the files should be available to use.
