I’ve used Topaz filters since they launched their first product. In a fast moving production environment I appreciated dropping down to my filter choices in PS and applying the great Topaz filters. I apply these to hundreds of images a month.
Then they created the Topaz dynamic launch protocol to their filters and everything slowed down. Althought I have purchased all their filters, I just really needed the two I used daily. So I kept my Photoshop CS6 on my Mac just for quickly using Topaz filters directly out of PS.
NOW today I upgraded to Catalina and the old CS6 will not launch. So now I must try to use my Topaz filters out of the latest Adobe Photoshop. The problem is this is not a fast production environment. I have to wait for Topaz to launch which is slow given I work from a remote area on Northern Vancouver Island via satellite. Plus the old filters I depended on, such as Topaz Clean - I can’t find them on the suite of Topaz filters I have purchased. (at least $600 worth).
So since I cannot contact Topaz directly, do any of you in the Topaz community know how to put those fast legacy Topaz plug-in filters on my latest PS? In our graphic universe speed is so important to productivity. Many thanks!
