I ilmport elements image into Corel; only one of the selections comes up. The image prints out well from Elements. Any hints? Doc Myer

…. only one of the selections comes up.

What does that mean?

I colorized an old b and w photo of my mother, as a child. I painted (selected) parts of the image that would be a single color, and saved that part as a selection. When I opened Corel Draw, where I size my photos, etc.,, only ONE of the saved selections came up. Is it possible that each saved selection is a separate layer? I see no way to determine this. I really need to size and print my colorization for an anniversary. Doc Russ

What is the problem printing it out of Photoshop?

Understand Image/Image Size dialogue?

"Is it possible that each saved selection is a separate layer? I see no way to determine this."

You should be able to see layers if they exist in the Layers Palette. If the Layers Palette is not open click "Layers" in the Palette Well or Window/Show Layers.

You might try this: Open the file in PE, click Layers. If "Flatten Image" is Bold you have Layers. Click Flatten Image. Then File/Save As. Save the file with a new name as TIF. You should be able to work with it in Corel.

He mentioned saving selections.

Those are saved as alpha channels, not layers.

Need more info, like what format saving in, etc.
If PSD/TIFF, must check the Alpha channel option. JPEG can’t save them, etc.

Of course CorelDraw is a vector drawing program, like Illustrator, but very limited raster capabilities; it’s also unclear what OP is trying to do there.

Also unclear why not printed straight out of Elements.

Can you give use a little more information exactly what you are doing. Fore what it is worth I have no problem importing PSD and Tiff created in Elements into Corel Draw or Photopaint Versions 11. Using PSD I do seem to loose some of the styles but I do maintain the layers, well Corel see them as objects but it is the same difference for practical use.
