AlbumEasy V3.8 - The free stamp album page generator.

One of the highlights of this release is the ability to add decorative borders to the album page.
Decorative page borders can be defined by the user, however I have also Included seven sample borders. These samples may be viewed by loading the DecorativeBorders.txt example album file.
Regrettably my limited artistic ability means that the seven samples are likely more useful as templates for the user to define their own rather than page ready final artwork.

New Commands:

ALBUM_PAGES_DECORATIVE_BORDER command for adding predefined or custom decorative borders around the page.
TEXT_CHAR_SPACING command to adjust the inter-character spacing of text - useful for example to match the spaced text used in the Steiner albums.
STAMP_BORDER_STYLE command to set dotted or dashed borders for stamp boxes.

Enhancements:

The STAMP_ADD command syntax has been simplified and now supports multiple lines of text below as well as inside the stamp box.
As a result the STAMP_ADDX and STAMP_ADDX_IMG commands are no longer required. These commands however, as well as the old STAMP_ADD syntax have been retained for backwards compatibility. It is recommended that for new albums the new STAMP_ADD syntax is used instead.

For an example of how to use the new features please refer to the NewExamples.txt and DecorativeBorders.txt albums which can be found in the examples directory .

As always, versions for Windows and Linux as well as the source code may be downloaded from www.theStampWeb.com

Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or come across any bugs.

re: Newly released AlbumEasy V3.8

The new STAMP_ADD command and the new line (n) command are a powerful combination. I have found the program to be useful and actually fun to work with, another powerful combination.

Thank you,
Jim

re: Newly released AlbumEasy V3.8

Jim,
Thanks. The STAMP_ADD commands have been bugging me for ages, I don't know what I was thinking when I added the clumsy STAMP_ADDX commands to allow a second row of text. I am pleased to have eventually fixed it.

Jbaxter,
Thanks Happy
