Importing and exporting libraries
Corel Painter lets you import and export libraries. For example, you can open a library that was created in a previous version of Corel Painter. You can also open multiple libraries at once, except in the Brush Selector. For more information, see Creating and deleting brush libraries.
All of the Corel Painter tools and media that are included in the application are stored in default libraries. For example, the default papers that are included in Corel Painter are contained in the Paper Textures libraries. When you first open a library in a media panel, the content of the default library for that given tool or media is displayed in the panel.
