Graphic Types
|
The Print Shop comes with a large collection of graphics suitable for a wide variety of occasions and purposes. You can also import your own graphics and images into The Print Shop.
The Print Shop collections contain graphics of five types: square, row, column, photos, and fine art. You can narrow a search according to the type you want by using the Show pop-up menu in the Select a Graphic dialog, or you can search for all types.
Square graphics are, as the name indicates, square in shape. Square graphics are useful as design elements in corners or anywhere a square shape can be used. |
 |
Row graphics are horizontally oriented and rectangular in shape. Row graphics are useful as design elements between text blocks, as mastheads, or anywhere a shape that is wider than it is tall can be used. |
 |
Column graphics are vertically oriented and rectangular in shape. Column graphics are useful design elements to place between text blocks, as borders, or anywhere a shape that is taller than it is wide can be used. |
 |
Photos come in a variety of shapes. Photos are useful as design elements between or behind text blocks, as backgrounds, or anywhere a rectangular shape can be used. |
 |
Fine Art images come in a variety of shapes. Fine Art images have the look of hand-drawn or painted artworks. They are useful as design elements to place between or behind text blocks, and as backgrounds. |

Images from iPhoto can be easily imported into your project, so you can use, for example, family photos taken with a digital camera in The Print Shop.
Also you can import images from your hard disk, CD, or a remote location into The Print Shop projects.
