Corel first released Kai’s Power Tools under the title Procreate KPT Effects and eventually added nine new filters that built on the special effects from KPT 5, KPT 6 and KPT 7. The 24 filters formed The KPT Collection, which was available as a plug-in. Corel no longer develops or sell The KPT Collection. In time, The KPT Collection, a 32-bit plug-in, became a free download for PaintShop Pro owners.
At the height of its popularity, Kai’s Power Tools offered a unique and sophisticated filter assortment. The rendering was fast, and custom settings could be saved as presets. However, the nonstandard interface, limited preview sizes and 32-bit-only version soon lost ground to improvements in graphics software.
Some of the filters included:
