Adding Background and Designing the Dates
You can add a custom-color background to your calendar
and choose from 9 patterned backgrounds. Then you select
the month and year, and design the date portion.
NOTE
PhotoPC 500 creates your calendar with opaque layers. The
background is the bottom layer, your picture is the middle layer,
and the dates are the top layer. If you add text, it appears on top of
all other layers. You can experiment with these elements to get the
effect you want.
Follow these steps:
1 Follow the steps on page 8-10 to add a colored or
patterned background.
2 Double-click the calendar month displayed on the
Template screen. The Edit Calendar dialog box
appears:
3 Click the down arrows and select the month and year
you want.
4 Click Font. The Select Font dialog box appears, as
shown on page 8-12.
Choose your font, style, size, color, and any effects you
want. The larger the font, the more space the dates
occupy on the page. The Sample box shows you how
your printed dates will look.
