1. Re: Help for Straighten tool
Cliff Engels Feb 23, 2008 4:50 PM (in response to athegn)IMO, the PSE6 help file sux. Big time.
However, PSE6 ships with a user guide in PDF format which is much more complete then the help files. Straighten is explained, albiet briefly, in this manual. Straighten is even in the index, altho not in the TOC.
An even better manual is the book "Photoshop Elements 6 - The Missing
Manual" by Barbara Brundage. Here the straighten tool is in the TOC,
the index, and contains two pages on it's usage. This book is my
primary reference to PSE6.
As far as the novices go, IMHO, I would emphasize the PDF User Guide
for a 'no cost' reference and the Brundage book for an 'additional
cost' reference. -

athegn Feb 24, 2008 12:29 AM (in response to athegn)Thank you for your reply.
It seems that the pdf file does not come with the trial download, at least a search has not revealed such a file in the Photoshop 6 folder.
The only pdf there is "Third Party License"
I can use the Straighten tool but my novices won't. I will have to explain that when they buy the package that they get more help.
As for the book I will recommend it because I have "Photoshop Elements 3 - The Missing Manual" and know that to be an excellent publication. -

Cliff Engels Feb 24, 2008 10:08 AM (in response to athegn)The User Guide is available for download from Adobe at this URL: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/PhotoshopElements/6.0/pselements_6_help.pdf
It is a pretty husky download at 35MB but it is available if you want it. -

5. Re: Help for Straighten tool
athegn Mar 9, 2008 12:00 PM (in response to athegn)Now installed purchased version of PSE 6. Purchased in UK. Cannot find pselements_6_help.pdf on the CD? It has not been installed on my Vista Home premium system either.
So either it is not supplied to us UK buyers or I am not searching properly.
My search does reveal the copy I downloaded from:-
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/PhotoshopElements/6.0/pselements_6_help.pdf
So I think my first guess is correct. We UK buyers are being short changed?
