Corel heeft de eerste servicepack voor versie 17, oftewel X7 van Paint Shop Pro, uitgebracht. Paint Shop Pro is een uitgebreid programma om afbeeldingen en foto's te beheren en te bewerken. Ook aan de beginnende gebruiker is gedacht; het Learning Center neemt je bij de hand en helpt je bij het uitvoeren van professioneel uitziende bewerkingen. Zo is het mogelijk om eenvoudig kleuren te veranderen, rimpels en vlekken te verwijderen, het perspectief aan te passen of diepte toe te voegen aan de foto door de achtergrond onscherp te maken. De belangrijkste veranderingen in deze update zijn hieronder op een rijtje gezet.
