The layout options in the Picture Package dialog box are determined by text files that are stored in the Layouts folder (inside the Presets folder). For example, the following text describes a layout with two 5 x 7 images: I 8 10 (2) 5x7 0.5 0 7 5 0.5 5 7 5 First line Defines the unit of measurement and the document size. Second line Contains the name of the layout as it appears in the Picture Package dialog box. Subsequent lines Define the position and dimensions of each image in the layout. To customize a new picture package layout: 1 In a text-editing application, create a new file, or open an existing file in the Layouts folder (inside the Presets folder). 2 In the first line of the file, enter the following elements (separated by a space): • A letter for the unit of measurement: i or I (for inches), p or P (for pixels), c or C (for centimeters). All numbers in the file use the specified unit. • The width of the document. • The height of the document. Note: The width and height of the document should not exceed the printable area of the paper. For example, if you plan to print on 11 x 17 paper, specify 10 x 16 as the document size. 3 In the second line of the file, enter the name of the layout as you want it to appear in the Picture Package dialog box. You can enter up to 75 characters. Using Help | Contents | Index Back 465
