Hi Ben,

I think the last version of Perfect Resize (the new name for the Genuine Fractals software) to support stn files was version 7.5. So maybe you can find that somewhere (more likely than finding the old GF).

Cheers,
Bart

Thanks for the input. I have OnOne Perfect Photo Ste 6 which includes the Perfect Resize version 7. From what I can see it will not open the stn files.

Mr Sid? Might have an old copy laying around, might take some time to find and it would run under OS9 if memory serves me.

Apparently (https://on1help.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/206278257-What-will-happen-to-the-stn-file-format-) it only works via the Adobe Photoshop plugin.

Cheers,
Bart

I tried to open it through an earlier version of PS with the Perfect Resize plugin installed but still could not open the .stn file. I thought 'Perfect Resize" also was a stand alone program? Guess not!

Thank you for looking.

No big rush.

Post by: biker on October 07, 2015, 05:40:20 pm: I've found the Genuine Fractals Print Pro 4.1 plugin that (besides high quality upscaling) adds the capability to open/save .stn files in old Photoshops (7). I'm not 100% sure about its origin but VirusTotal.com finds it clean. It's a trial version and can't recall if there are some limitations (watermarks etc.).
It's for Windows and it's less than 5MB. If you are interested, send me PM and I'll put it somewhere to download.
