CREATIVE GRAPHICS

Logo Studio
The unique Logo Studio is your in-house professional design agency, giving you access to all of PagePlus's drawing and graphics power. Work on logos and graphics in isolation and with helpful presets and advice.

Image Cutout Studio
Give your products or other photo subjects total focus by removing backgrounds, or place them over new backgrounds! Get outstanding results fast with the amazing Cutout Studio. Even use the cutout photo shape as a silhouette or as a frame for text or another photo.

Realistic Glass and Metal Effect
Add striking and eye-catching new glass and metal effects for a professional touch to your documents. The Reflection Map filter effect gives you control over the look of your reflective surfaces - and Styles presets give you instant impact!

Stylish Reflections and Outlines
Transform flat adverts into style icons by adding modern reflections to text headlines, logos or images. Enhance photos and headlines further by adding an outline - with controls to vary colour, transparency and more.

HD and EPS Graphic Support and more
Keep up with modern advances - PagePlus now supports HD Photo images and the Windows Imaging Component. WIC easily allows support for new image formats to be added to Windows - and PagePlus X3. Also now import and enhance EPS PostScript® graphics.

Easy Blended Edges for Cropped Graphics
Cropping is now better than ever. Trimmed graphics, images and text can have easy feathered edges using the context toolbar - the easiest way to blend object edges against new backgrounds and clear away unwanted coloured tinges from cropped photos.

Full Colour with Confidence
If it's a specific Pantone colour from a business logo or a shade you like from a photo, you can confidently design and output in full colour with PagePlus X3.

ENHANCED USABILITY

Revamped and Editable Interface
PagePlus X3 is sporting a new stylish interface and has the latest Studio tab layout for higher productivity. The Gallery has been revamped and there's increased flexibility to customise toolbars. You can also now customise keyboard shortcuts for even faster workflow.

Enhanced Layout Controls
Have more control over your layouts with easier-to-move objects, editable nudge distance, customisable pasteboard colours, and editable guide line colours that can match your document's layer colours.

IMPROVED TEXT AND TABLES

More Powerful Text Editing
Text handling is even more powerful in PagePlus X3 with enhanced AutoFit options for controlling text in frames and path text. Frame text can now have fills and transparency like Artistic Text, and we've added a new Word 2007 text import filter.

Table Enhancements
As used in dedicated spreadsheets, PagePlus tables now support absolute cell references (e.g. $A$2), adding rows and columns has been made even easier, plus new drop-down menus in column/row headers offer fast access to useful commands.

POWERFUL PUBLISHING

Duplex Printing Wizard NEW
Save paper and get smart results! Get the best from your desktop printer with the PagePlus X3 Duplexing Wizard. Let PagePlus help you figure out the minefield that is turning & tumbling pages for correct double-sided printing from a regular printer.

Package Contents for Sharing
Share your PagePlus X3 designs with co-workers or other PagePlus X3 users for a new level of collaboration. All the required fonts and images are built in to new packaged PagePlus files so there's nothing missing from your design.

Place multiple images in one go, selecting images and placing with successive clicks or drags on your page. Prevent arrowheads and corners from scaling when you resize QuickShapes with the new Lock Geometry option. Website colour schemes have been extended to include both on- and off-page background colours, and the website Layout Checker has been improved.

A new file format has been developed for PagePlus X3 and future Serif releases - Serif Metafiles will make it easier to transfer text, drawings and images between Serif programs. Objects now have a movable centre of rotation, available with the Rotation tool. The user interface now has 5 cool colour schemes to suit your mood or style.
