Custom print layouts |
|
Custom print layouts let you arrange many sizes of image cells on a single page. Custom layouts are saved as plain text files in the layouts folder found in your Corel AfterShot Pro Settings Folder. These text files have the following settings:
The top of the file specifies the name of this layout:
[layout]
name =demo1
After this, a section like the one below appears for every image cell or caption cell:
[cell1]
type =image
image =0
coordinates =absolute
x =0
y =0
width =101
height =152
scalemode =crop
bestfit =true
renamestring =
fontsize =
These settings have the following meanings and possible values:
Setting |
Value |
Comment |
|---|---|---|
type |
"image" or "caption" |
Specifies if this cell is an image or a caption |
image |
integer |
Set this to a common integer to use data from one image in two cells. The Image and Caption cells for the same image should use the same value. |
coordinates |
"absolute" or "percent" |
Specifies the coordinate system to use. "absolute" means x,y,width,height are in millimeters. "percent" means x,y,width,height are in tenths of percent (so a value of 250 means 25% of the page) |
x |
integer |
Distance from the left edge of the page |
y |
integer |
Distance from the top edge of the page |
width |
integer |
Width of the cell |
height |
integer |
Height of the cell |
scalemode |
"crop" or "reduce" |
Specifies the scaling mode to use in Image cells |
bestfit |
"true" or "false" |
True allows Corel AfterShot Pro to rotate an image 90 degrees if doing so will result in a larger image |
renamestring |
any text or renaming formats |
Specifies the text of the Caption to print |
fontsize |
integer |
Specifies the size of the font for the Caption. 6 is the smallest; anything less than 6 will tell Corel AfterShot Pro to auto-size the font |
