8 Welcome
Pictures
• New photo editing tools and effects (see p. 110)
Vibrance, Split Tone, Tilt Shift, and Clarity PhotoLab filters add
fantastic effects to enhance pictures, plus new tools offer selective
editing and photo repair. Now control vignette positioning and
sizing. Blend effects smoothly across an area using gradient masks,
and remove unwanted blemishes, clutter or imperfections with a
clone brush. Edit photos in your favourite program by launching
any installed photo editor from PagePlus X8's context toolbar.
• New scanning power
As manufacturers have been very slow to introduce 64-bit scanning
software, PagePlus has been updated to support 32-bit and any
newer 64-bit drivers, for both WIA and TWAIN driver types. Also
scan and place multiple images in one operation if your scanner
allows, without lifting the lid each time to swap pictures.
Installation
Installing PagePlus follows different procedures depending on whether
you are installing from disc or via download.
You can install your new version alongside previous versions and
use them independently.
32 or 64-bit PagePlus X8 installs to respective 32 or 64-bit
computers.
