I recently purchased three pages of vector images from a stock photo site to use as scene separators in my books. I have no experience creating graphics, just inserting them into docs in Word, Scrivener, etc. In one of the sheets, I am unable to pull an individual image out to use it. I called the company and they advised that I need to use a software (like Corel Draw or Adobe something or other) to access the "layers," a term I am not familiar with.
The other sheets I purchased, I was able to pull a single image off, but when I used that one for one book and another one for another book, the first image changed to the second one. It seems the whole page has the same file name or something.
What I need to do is to pull out a particular image and save it as a separate file with its own file name so I can use it individually. If I download Inkscape, would I be able to use it for this? I'm willing to learn how if I know it will work. I paid for the rights to use the images and am frustrated not to be able to do this effectively.
If yes, please direct me to the right tutorials or give me some tips if you don't mind. If not, please save me some brain damage and tell me it won't work using Inkscape.
Thank you!
