Tips and Hints

want to install a font -->
open it in a software as « Nexus Font » (or
other font viewer software of you choice)
as long as the software’s window is opened, your
font will be available in your PSP
TIP 2 -> from PSPX4,
in the later versions of PSP the functions « Mirror » and « Flip » have
been replaced by -->
« Mirror » --> image --> mirror --> mirror horizontal
« Flip » --> image --> mirror --> mirror vertical

translator’s note
I use PSP2018 to create my tag and write my translation
