Exporting Projects in Different Formats After creating a project in The Print Shop, you may want to export it in a format that can be opened on computers where The Print Shop is not installed . The Print Shop includes a number of export options to allow project files to be exported in file formats that can be opened by other programs. Tip: Once a project has been exported from The Print Shop, the exported file can no longer be opened as an editable project in The Print Shop. To allow future editing of your project, first save it in The Print Shop format . To export a currently open project in another format: 2. Type a name for the file and specify the location you want to export to. 1 . Choose Export from the File menu . 3. Choose the file format you want from the Format pop-up menu . The Print Shop project can be exported in these file formats: Windows Bitmap (BMP), Joint Photo Experts Group (JPEG), Portable Document Format (PDF), Macintosh Picture (PICT), Portable Network Graphic (PNG), Tagged Image File Format (TIF), and Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) . 4 . Click the Options button to set options specific to the file format you have chosen (if available). 5 . Choose the resolution you want from the Resolution pop-up menu . 6 . Click Export.

The project panel is often equal to one full page (such as Signs, Certificates). However, many projects use several panels per page . For example, Greeting Cards and Pamphlets have a front, inside, and back panel . There are also projects that have only one working panel but are printed several copies to a page, such as Business Cards and Postcards . Note: The dashed line on the panel represents the edge of the maximum printable area . An object extending past the dashed line will be cut off when printed. The margins that surround a project are designated by the software of your printer (the printer driver) . The Print Shop Design Desk displays the margins determined by the printer that is selected in the Page Setup dialog for the currently open project . If you choose another printer in Page Setup, the margins may change on the Design Desk and the objects in your project may be scaled to fit the new printable area. At the bottom of the Design Desk is the status bar, which you can use to navigate between the panels in a multipanel project and to change zoom levels . If your project has more than one panel, the Panel View icons appear next to the zoom placard in the status bar .

Using Resources and Tools 1 Designing the Project desiGninG ProjeCTs Working With Objects The Print Shop provides a number of ways of working with objects to get the look you want . This section shows you how to work with objects on the Design Desk . Adding Objects The Print Shop uses the following types of objects: Backdrops Borders Custom Graphics Decorative Lines Photo Frame Graphics Headlines Imported Images Photographs Shapes Text Block Watermark A backdrop serves as the background for your project . Backdrops are the bottom-most layer and cannot be selected or moved like other objects . A full panel border or a decorative mini-border . Graphics that can be personalized . They are Logos, Seals, Timepieces, Signatures, and Initial Caps . A line that you can insert anywhere in your project . A decorative border for your photos . A picture, drawing, or design . A graphic or photo that you get from another source, such as a CD, digital camera, or scanner, or from the Internet . Photos from your iPhoto albums also belong to this category . Photo images in JPEG format included in The Print Shop. An object in which you can type and insert text . Simple shapes like lines, circles or squares, or custom shapes . A special type of text block that you can use for large, striking text . A panel background that gives your project the appearance of being printed on watermarked paper . Selecting Objects The arrow is the default pointer in The Print Shop . Use it to select objects . Place the arrow pointer over an object and click it . A frame and resizing handles appear, indicating that the object is selected . To select multiple objects, click the first object to select it, and then press the Shift key and click additional objects to add them to the selection . If you have a lot of objects in your project, use the Tab key to select each object in succession . Grouping Objects You can group two or more objects together . The grouped objects can then be scaled, moved, rotated, and flipped as one object. This saves time and makes it easy to maintain relationships between objects. To group objects: 1 . Select the objects you want to group . To select more than one object at a time, hold down the Shift key while clicking each object in succession or just drag the pointer over the objects . 2 . Choose Group from the Arrange menu . The objects are now grouped .  Designing and Modifying the Project Designing the Project To ungroup objects, select the grouped object you want to split into its component objects and then choose Ungroup from the Arrange menu . The objects are split into their original components . Moving Objects Moving objects on a page is simple in The Print Shop . There are two ways to do this: • • Click the object and use the pointer to drag the object to another position in the work area . Use the arrow keys. Each time an arrow key is pressed, the selected object moves in the designated direction . Tip: If you hold the Control key when moving the object with the arrow keys, your object moves with larger increment . You can undo a move immediately by choosing Undo Move Selection from the Edit menu or by using the Command - Z keyboard shortcut . Resizing Objects The easiest way to resize an object is to select it, then drag one of the corner selection handles to reduce or enlarge the object. Dragging the corner selection handles changes both the object’s width and height proportionally (except for text blocks, headlines, and return addresses) . Dragging the middle-section handles changes only the object’s width or height. Dragging the corner selection handle with the Option key pressed resizes the object (except for text blocks and headlines) without preserving proportion . Text blocks, headlines, and return addresses can be resized proportionally or without preserving proportion by doing these operations in the opposite manner . You can also resize objects using the Scale dialog to get an exact resizing . When you scale an object, the aspect ratio (the ratio of height to width) may be maintained . You have the option of scaling in all directions, or horizontally or vertically only . To scale an object: 2 . Type the scaling percentage in the Percentage box or use the arrow controls to scale up or down in increments of one . The preset size of the object is 100% . You can scale between 10% and 400% . Tip: You can also drag the slider to change the scale value . 3. Select an option for how you want the scale to affect the image: • • • All Directions Vertical only Horizontal only 1 . Click an object (or multiple objects) to select it, and then choose Scale from the Arrange menu . The Scale dialog appears . Tip: Choose Size to Panel from the Arrange menu to quickly enlarge your object to the size of the entire panel . 4 . Click OK to scale the object to the percentage shown . Designing and Modifying the Project  Designing the Project Rotating Objects You can rotate an object quickly and easily by dragging the rotate handle that extends to the right of the selected object . The pointer changes to a curved arrow . You can rotate a group of selected objects by dragging the rotate handle of any one of them . The rotation is performed around the center of the group of objects . You can also rotate an object using the Rotate submenu in the Arrange menu or by clicking the Rotate button on the Layout palette . To rotate an object: 1 . Click an object to select it . 2 . Choose Rotate from the Arrange menu or click the Rotate button on the Layout palette, and then choose one of the following commands from the submenu: Rotate the selected object counter-clockwise 90 degrees . Rotate the selected object clockwise 90 degrees . If you choose Other, the Rotate dialog appears .

Left 0 Degrees Right 0 Degrees Other Aligning Objects Use the Align command in the Arrange menu or the Align Vertical/Align Horizontal buttons on the Layout palette to align selected objects on a panel . To align objects: 1 . Select the object or objects (to select several objects, hold down the Shift key while you click them) . 2 . Choose Align from the Arrange menu; the Align dialog appears . Horizontal alignment options Preview of alignment options Vertical alignment options Align dialog 3 . Select the option that describes how you want to align the objects .
