Learn Clip Studio Paint
By :

Having a graphics tablet or a tablet computer with a stylus and pressure sensitivity is highly recommended for using this software. Drawing with a stylus is much more natural than drawing with a mouse or trackpad. For more information on graphics tablets, see Chapter 2, Installing Clip Studio Paint Pro and Interface Basics.
Chapter 2 will also explain system requirements in much more detail. In short, the requirements are as follows:
Software covered in the book |
OS requirements |
Clip Studio Paint version 3.0.0 |
Windows 10 or 11, or macOS 12, 13, or 14 |
Disclaimer
There might be some differences in the option naming, placement, and availability depending on what version of Clip Studio Paint you are currently using. If needed, earlier versions of Clip Studio Paint can run on older OSes.
