Using the Help System

When you start up the Paint Shop Pro Help system (by choosing Help > Help Topics) it will open to the Welcome to Jasc Paint Shop Pro page. The left side of the Help window contains the Contents tab (listing all the main Help pages), the Index tab, the Search tab, and the Favorites tab. The right side of the Help window displays the currently selected Help topic.

Most command dialogs have a Help button located along the bottom of the dialog. Click that button to open a Help topic associated with the dialog.
