Enhancing the Card Background
When a background image is added to a card design, the Enhance button on the appro-
priate Layout Properties tab is enabled. This gives you access to the various enhance-
ment options available for your background images--cropping, color balance, as well as
exposure, contrast and brightness.
Important: When creating a background image for your card layout (using graphics soft-
ware), be sure to use the same dimensions (or at least the same aspect ratio) for your
background as your card media. If your image does not match your card media, as set in
the Card Size list, the software will stretch the image as set in the Card Size list, the soft-
ware will stretch the image as required to fill the card layout. This is also important to
remember if you choose to crop your background image.
To modify any of the color or image quality settings, drag the slider one way or another
until the Preview Image appears as desired, or select Automatic contrast to automatically
adjust the contrast of the image. Click OK when you are finished. To undo your changes
click the Reset All button to return the Preview Image to its original settings, or click
Cancel to return to the Layout Properties dialog without saving the changes.
