Converter for ABR Brushes to PSP Brushes

Post by Leslie »

Hi, All

I used to have a converter that would automatically convert PS brushes to PSP format. Of course, now that I want to use it I can't find it.
It's not the ABR Viewer.

Never mind. I kept searching and found it. Thank goodness for backups of backups.

I don't remember when it was added but PaintSHop Pro does support importing ABR brushes now. You don't need another importer/converter.

Yes, I saw that.
But the one I have only is one step, and then you import.
Just click it in the same folder as the abr is, and then import. Couldn't be easier.

The only thing I can find for that is the old trick of just renaming abr to jbr which worked for older format abr brushes and not the newer ones. Would this program work on all abrs including the latest versions of the file format?

Did the program just convert the files in place or did it also copy them into the appropriate brushes folder?

While I understand it is more clicks, at the very least PSP can handle ABR importing natively. So if you can't find it, you're not out of an easy option.

It just converts the brushes, and then you import. I did find it.
But it's nice to know that there is a work-around.
