| Readme: | Short: Papio-Design - design and publishing suite (Shareware) Author: Yannick Buchy Type: gfx/misc Version: 1.1 Architecture: ppc-morphos Requires: MorphOS 3.20+
============================================================================ PAPIO-DESIGN Photos, page layout, drawing and painting Version 1.1 ============================================================================
WHAT IS IN THE DRAWER ---------------------
Papio-Design the launcher: opens the programs of the pack, each on the screen and in the part of it you chose Folios page layout: text, image and graphic frames placed freely on the page, printed or exported as PDF Graphos vector drawing: logos, illustrations, diagrams, with text and pictures, saved as SVG, exported as PDF, PNG or JPEG, printed Momento your photos: browse the folders, sort by date, view, adjust the colours, print Pixelios pixel painting: pencil, brush, fill, shapes, text, on a canvas with real transparency, saved as PNG, JPEG, IFF or BMP, printed (formerly Croquis) Papio-RegTool registration: pick an offer and register - one window Shared what the programs share: the fonts, and Ghostscript 10.07 native PPC, used by all four for printing
Each program has its own readme in its own drawer, and its user manual in the Docs drawer, in the 16 languages of the pack: the "?" button at the top right of its window opens it. This readme is only about the pack.
INSTALLING ----------
Copy the Papio-Design drawer wherever you like. Nothing is written outside it: the settings of every program go to its Settings drawer.
Folios, Graphos and Pixelios save a copy of your work by themselves, every five minutes, in the Autosave drawer beside Settings. After a crash, the next start offers that copy back; it is deleted when you save or quit normally. That is a help, not a substitute for a copy elsewhere.
All the programs speak 16 languages and follow the language chosen in the Locale preferences.
THE DEMO --------
Every program in the pack is a demo. Everything can be tried; what needs a registration is keeping your work: saving, PDF export and printing in Folios, Graphos and Pixelios, and in Momento saving an adjusted picture, turning a PNG or GIF picture on disk, correcting a date, printing and PDF export. The title bar says "Demo" until the program is registered.
Registration follows your MorphOS registered user name -- there is no key to type. Open Papio-RegTool and pick your offer; you then receive the pack with the programs you registered for, unlocked.
OFFERS ------
Folios (page layout): 29.90 euros Graphos (vector drawing): 29.90 euros Momento (your photos): 19.90 euros Pixelios (pixel painting): 9.90 euros
Papio-Design, the whole pack - all four: 59.90 euros
Every offer includes all future updates, free of charge.
Papio-Design is sold on its own: a registration for Papio-Office does not unlock it, and the other way round.
