How to open/import an image

There are at least 2 methods to open/import an image to Real Paint.

Method 1: use the menu. Click “File” -> “Open” to open the Open image dialog, navigate and select the image file, and then click the button “Open” to open it.

Method 2: drag and drop. Drag and drop a file onto Real Paint to open the file. Drag an image into an open Real Paint image to add dropped file as a new layer, or set of layers, to the already open image.

Note: if you choose to import a PDF file or a PostScript file, there is an extra step for you to select the options: page selection, open pages as, image size and etc.
