With Portraits & Prints, your photos are printed to a page layout called a template. All you have to do is select your photos, select your template, and print. Now, with the 2.0 version, you are not limited to just printing at home, you can send your photos via Email or print-to-disk and have your photos printed anywhere, including your favorite photo lab. Like the original, Portraits & Prints 2.0 comes with many standard templates, but now you can download free templates directly from within P&P using the new Template Manager. In addition to all the basic photo layouts, you can easily add your photos to Holiday, Birthday, Valentine’s Day cards and more. With hundreds of free templates and lots more coming, Portraits & Prints 2.0 truly does turn your Mac into your personal photo studio. Portraits & Prints 2.0 lets your photos speak for themselves. Just click, drag, and type to add balloon captions to your photos. Type in your own captions anywhere you want on the template, including directly on the photos. You control the font, size, and color of the text. Plus, image file names or EXIF data can be automatically added to your templates. “We went out of our way to add a lot of fun to Portraits & Prints 2! With balloon captions you can turn your photos into a comic strip and literally put words into the someone's mouth,” said Joseph Japes, Marketing Director for Econ Technologies.
