Paint Tool SAI 1.2.6 Beta 3

Paint Tool SAI 是一款小巧但高度先進的點陣圖形編輯器，適用於所有現代版本的 Windows 作業系統。最初於 2008 年公開釋出，這款備受推崇的數位藝術軟體多年來獲得了多次升級，使其成為 PC 平台上最優秀的輕量級應用程式之一，提供簡單、穩定、舒適且愉快的繪圖體驗。

由於其輕量的硬體需求，它仍然是老舊或效能較弱的 PC 上最受歡迎的數位繪圖程式之一，尤其是那些仍在使用舊版 Windows 的用戶，例如 Windows XP 和 2000。



PaintTool SAI 最受讚譽的功能包括其精簡且易於使用的介面、處理數位觸控繪圖配件輸入的能力，以及將您的輸入轉換為高度抗鋸齒的繪圖。多年來在市場上，Paint Tool SAI 獲得了對2D 藝術繪圖、卡通、簡單插畫和漫畫感興趣的用戶的熱烈讚譽。

該應用程式支援精確的色彩控制，包括調整飽和度、改變亮度，以及精確的後處理濾鏡。繪圖功能配備了多種筆刷、畫筆和水彩，支援壓力感應筆，以及全面的復原/重做工具。對於更高階的專案，該應用程式還支援圖層操作及其相關工具，如鎖定、合併等。

完成作品後，您可以輕鬆地以多種標準格式儲存或匯出成品，甚至包括流行的 PSD 檔案格式，該格式可在 Adobe 應用程式中載入，例如Photoshop或Illustrator。

所有這些功能以及更多內容都包含在一個小於 5 MB 的安裝套件中，讓任何人都能在短短幾秒鐘內輕鬆下載並安裝到 PC 上。安裝後，您甚至可以關聯特定的影像格式，使其自動以Paint Tool SAI開啟，簡化您的影像編輯流程。
