ABR Viewer – Convert PS Brushes to PSP Brushes!
It gets asked a lot “Can I use Photoshop brushes in Paint Shop Pro?” and the answer is yes, but it’s not as easy as drag and drop. But it’s totally worth the work! Check out this quick how-to to start converting PS brushes into PSP brushes!
This program was never meant for converting brushes between Photoshop and Paint Shop Pro, but some genius minds figured out that you can! (and no, not me).
There are lots of wonderful brush sets for photoshop in the web… too many to install them all just to see what they look like! now you can have the preview of a set without having to install it…

How To:
This quick how-to will show you how to install brushes. It can be time consuming, depending on how many brushes your installing.
Step 1: First download and extract your PS brushes (Google might help finding brushes).
Step 2: Open ABR Viewer and go to File > Load Brush Set and find your .abr brush file and click OK.
Step 3: Go to Export > Thumbnails and choose a location (I choose the folder with the .abr brush in it). Then drag the brushes you want to use into Paint Shop Pro.
Step 4: These brushes are pretty small, but you gotta make sure your brushes are smaller with 1000×1000 pixels. Then go to File > Export > Custom Brush and name it the name of the .abr brush (you don’t need to, it’s just good to). Your done!!
Well that sums up this quick-tut. Hope you learned something new and exciting!
