can only sort images by used and not used.you cannot re-arrange a box if there is a photo in it (you have to empty the box before you can move).green guidelines do not span across both pages, so it is difficult to line up elements across pages (again, another impediment to creating custom layouts).cannot copy objects or pages (makes it impossible to create re-usable custom layouts).frame coordinates available (but not dimensions).Although, looking back at my notes to populate my pros/cons list seems to suggest I had a very irritating experience with the software! It's definitely clunky, but based on what I've read, they do seem to make improvements to the software. That said, if you can work within the confined pre-made layouts, the software is serviceable. If you prefer making custom layouts, just walk away from MyPublisher. Green guidelines appear to help you line up elements, but it was very hard for me to get them to show up when I wanted them to! The pre-made layouts are rather limiting, but workable. There is a handy "flip" feature on layouts (denoted by the arrow in the top right corner). Individual pages can be re-arranged easily - a plus. The top bar can be toggled between photos and pages. Also note, you can remove the MyPublisher logo here (for an extra charge of $10). In the Global settings, you can set the default font type. It is a bit annoying to have to switch modes to edit the layout vs dropping pictures in.Įasy to create a two page spread of one photo, but finicky to design multiple pictures over two pages (no pre-made 2 page layouts). To edit the layout of the pages, you have to click into a separate view mode ("MyStyle" On). With MyPublisher, the spine can only accommodate text and background colour printing (no image printing on spine) Software ReviewMyPublisher has their own downloadable software, which I found rather cumbersome to use (although not the worst I tried). Then order your book through the software. Then re-open that browser and click through your cash back site, and leave it open. * Note, I used the same trick I described for Photobook America in order to get the cash back to work: find out what browser is launched when you attempt to order your book, close the window. MyPublisher had amazing reviews everywhere online (especially with regard to the super gloss printing upgrade), so I decided to give them a try.Ĭlassic Hardcover with Layflat pages and Super Gloss printingĥ% on Ebates (Referral link)(also check MrRebates (referral link) )* MyPublisher Classic Hardcover with Layflat pages and Super Gloss printingĪfter my experience with seamless lay-flat pages feeling too thick, I decided to try a flex-hinge product.
