Working in Project Mode
The Project mode gives you a focused environment in which to create custom
greeting cards, calendars, invitations, birthday and anniversary cards, name cards,
and planners. The Project mode is useful for getting through a “project” as quickly
and efficiently as possible. It is where Photo Express lives up to its name, speeding
you through all the necessary tasks while keeping all the unnecessary or
extraneous components secure in the background. While in Project mode, you can
only open template files, but you can add photo files of any image type to your
templates in the process of customizing them.
To Begin a New Project
1.
Click the Project tab when you start Photo
Express. Photo Express then switches over to Project
mode, which contains slightly different options and
commands than Photo mode.
2.
Click the album icon on the Toolbar and then select
an album from the Options panel. Albums are
categorized by type, such as Flyers, Greeting Cards,
and Invitations to name a few.
3.
Choose a template from the album and click the
Edit button on the Command panel. The template
opens into the workspace.
You can create your own, custom
templates in Photo mode. All you need
to do is set your template up (i.e. add
text objects and artwork) and then save
it as a *.tpx file. This file can then be
opened in Project mode and saved to
one of the many Project albums or
added to a custom album.
