Opening PSP 2023 Images With Version 2018

Post by Linda Lou »

Is this normal?
Image created and saved as .pspimage using 2023.
2018 will not open it using Manage Tab (that shows a gray box) or from the directory using Windows "Open With" PSP 2018.

When you save in PSP2023, click on Options on the Save As dialog box and choose the compatibility version you want.

Thank you!!! Oh gosh, that's embarrassing! I always use "Save As" so I can double-check the file type, or "Export" as .png.
I have never used just Save. Seems like a no-brainer now that I know it's a setting and where it is located. I should have added that question to my Settings topic.
