You can use Film Factory to organize, retouch, and print your photos. Follow the steps in these sections:
Make sure you installed Film Factory as described in the Software Installation booklet.
Note: If you need help with Film Factory, select it from the Help menu or check the on-screen Getting Started Guide that was installed with Film Factory.
Note: Film Factory can open these file types: JPEG, PICT, BMP, TIF, FPX (read only), PNG, GIF (read only), MacPaint, Photoshop, QuickTime, SGI and Targa.
Note: If your digital camera supports P.I.M. (PRINT Image Matching) or Exif Print, special print information for accurate image reproduction and color correction is included with your photo. Film Factory uses this information automatically when printing your photos. For best results, do not print P.I.M. or Exif Print images at the same time as non-P.I.M or non-Exif Print images.
You can also import a photo into Film Factory from a disk, card, or scanner. See the on-screen Getting Started Guide that was installed with Film Factory for instructions.
You can also select other print options on the left side of the screen. But don't choose Greeting Cards, Stickers or Calendars; PictureMate doesn't support these options because they work only with larger paper sizes. If you have another printer that supports larger paper sizes, you can use it with these print options.
Macintosh OS X: Select these options in the Printer Settings box at the bottom of the screen:
Note: Leave the PRINT Image Matching and/or Exif Print box checked for the best results when printing photos containing P.I.M. and/or Exif Print data. Do not print P.I.M. or Exif Print images at the same time as non-P.I.M. or non-Exif Print images.
Follow the steps in Storing and Displaying Your Printed Photos to properly store your printed photos.
