Each time the Photact system starts up on your computer, it looks at the
processor and memory available in order to estimate the largest file size
your equipment can handle without causing errors. Image files are very demanding
on both processors and memory, and trying to images that are too large will
cause the computer and the program to stop working correctly. The maximum
size available will vary from computer to computer and may even change depending
on other programs that are running at the same time. |

When you release your products for printing, you have the choice between
JPG file format, PDF file format or both. The JPG format is designed exclusively
for images and will create the best print when the product is made up only
of images. The PDF file format was designed for printing 'documents' and
is very good for printing text and graphics (such as lines and grids). If
your product contains text and/or graphics then the PDF file format will
probably give you a better printed product. Calendars should always be printed
from PDF files. Photo Books and Digital Scrapbooking pages that have text
boxes should also be printed from PDF files. Montages and Digital Framing
products should be printed from JPG files for the best print quality. |
