Corel PaintShop Pro X 5 is a powerful program that comes with an excellent toolset that satisfies my needs as a graphic designer completely. With it, I have no issues correcting or creating logos, banners, posters, and other visual content creation for perfume brands which which I usually collaborate.
I’ve selected this specific program, as it includes drawing, painting, text editing, and layering tools.
For Windows 10 users, this option is really perfect. It is fully compatible with Photoshop files (that I can download for free), meaning that I can take advantage of two pro-level programs for creating eye-grabbing designs and turn all my creative graphic design ideas into life.

Integrates with social media platforms
If you are looking for a versatile tool to share your designs online, download Corel Paintshop Pro X5 to make your workflow more convenient. Publishing on social media platforms is a great way to demonstrate your projects to a wider audience or attract collaborators. In addition, many clients conduct business communication through social networks, so being able to share designs directly saves a lot of effort and time, which is critically important for me as a freelancer.
Adjustable UI for personalized editing experience
The ability to adjust the UI of Corel Paintshop Photo Pro X5 to my editing workflow is precious. It lets me create a workspace customized to my specific requirements and makes all the processes more efficient.
For example, most of the time I work with graphic design tools, but sometimes I need to switch to photo processing for a perfume brand images, and the ability to customize the interface for individual needs is something that makes the job much easier.
Speedy performance when working with complex tasks
The software's speed and performance are top-level, so I can work on large images and complex edits without annoying lags and delays. This allows completing the job on time meeting even the strictest deadlines and presenting high-quality output to my clients.
Handles HDR images
Although Corel Paintshop Pro X5 can be downloaded for free, it is quite capable and supports HDR images. So, with the editor, it is easy to create amazing and vibrant pictures full of detail. This ability is crucial for graphic designers like me, as it allows creating eye-grabbing graphics for perfume branding projects, where attention to detail is required.
Most importantly, I do not need any additional HDR software and pay extra for it.
Please mind, the editor consumes power
As my experience has shown Corel Paintshop Pro X5 Ultimate consumes much power and demands a lot of system resources to function without lags. This decreases the speed of my PC and slows down my workflow especially when dealing with large and complex designs on my tablet or laptop.
Steep learning curve
Although I’ve already used similar graphic design software, the Corel PaintShop Photo Pro X5 version is difficult for me to learn and use. Navigation through its set of features and tools can confuse aspiring users. I was also annoyed with occasional crashes and bugs that disrupted my workflow.
It is worth mentioning that the program supports the installation of actions designed for Photoshop. Sometimes you don’t need to perform complex color grading or white balance adjustment which is usually used for product photos, when it is needed to fix only some issues, and this is where Ps actions will help you a lot.
Applying them in Corel PaintShop Pro X5, you can automatically correct the colors, adjust white balance, add some texture or improve contrast etc.
