A friend of mine is getting an error message with a psd file I sent him - it comes up as "Error 565" - can anybody tell me what that means? Thanks!

Is the friend using Paint shop pro to open the file.
If so, flatten the PSD file and send it to them again.

Agreed smak,:bigthmb:

Although if the file is in PSD then, probably, having it in separate layers would be the whole point.

Options:
1) Open the file in Photoshop, not Paint Shop Pro (OK, that was obvious, I know);
2) Get your friend to try a newer version of Paint Shop Pro (download a trial version, maybe);
3) Save it with Paint Shop Pro before sending.
4) Send it as PSD but avoid anything fancy, just image layers, RGB.

Thanks - you're both bang on. He didn't tell me it was Paintshop Pro he was using, and an old one at that, v7. I used a trial version of PSP8 to re-do it, but that doesn't seem to have worked either. As it has about forty layers, some of which he needs to be able to work on, I can't flatten it, either. I've told him just what you suggested, to go and download a more recent trial version, and see what happens. Thanks again!

Don't forget to tell us if it worked out - other folks might encounter the same problem.
