Installing A. Native Installers: All Photoshops
Note that this software will only run in Photoshop CS6, CC, CC2014, CC2015, CC2017
and beyond. CS5 and below aren’t supported.
1. Installing
A. Native Installers: All Photoshops.
Note that because I'm not an identified developer, Mac, Windows or AntiVirus software will
be suggesting to not use these installers. If you're not comfortable with ignoring your OS
advice, please use a different installation method.
Use /Install Windows/Install_PerspectiveTools_2.3.exe if you're on Windows.
If you have Avast antivirus you can get ShellExecuteEx 299 error , ignore it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Use /Install Mac/Install_PerspectiveTools_2.3.pkg if you're on Mac.
To open the .pkg from unidentified developer, do this
Restart PS if it's running.
B. ZXP Installer: Photoshop CC2015, CC2017+.
Goto ZXPInstaller, download ZXPinstaller for Win or Mac and drag-n-drop
/ZXP/PerspectiveTools2.3.zxp to ZXPinstaller window, restart PS.
Why do you need use 3rd party software? Adobe discontinued Extension Manager after
CC2014 and currently there’s no official way to install extensions for modern Photoshops.
C. Adobe Extension Manager: Photoshop CS6, CC, CC2014.
Find Adobe Extension Manager:
On Windows: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Extension Manager CC\
On Mac: /Applications/Adobe Extension Manager CC/
Or download it from http://www.adobe.com/exchange/em_download/
Goto File > Install Extension and browse for /ZXP/PerspectiveTools2.3.zxp .
D. Manual installation (if nothing worked).
Navigate to /Manual Install/
Unzip PerspectiveTools2.3.zip to
On Windows:
C:\Users\[ USER ]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CEP\extensions\
(to get there paste %appdata% to file browser and hit Enter)
On Mac:
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CEP/extensions/
If the directories aren’t there, create them
Copy the scripts jsx-files to %Photoshop folder%/Presets/Scripts (optional).
