Custom Image Composition Packages
You can print multiple copies of an image in different sizes on the same page.
For example, a package might contain a 4 x 6 in. (10.16 x 15.24 cm) and
two 3.5 x 5 in. (8.89 x 12.7 cm). The page is trimmed to provide individual
prints.
Printer drivers for KODAK printers typically provide a number of standard
packages. The drivers also let you import custom package files for layouts not
included with their standard packages.
Creating a Custom
Package Custom package files are ASCII text files that you can create with a variety of
text-editing software (for example, WINDOWS Notepad).
IMPORTANT: You must save the file with a .kpg extension. You can save
the file anywhere on your hard drive.
The file must conform to the following standard:
Type: KPKG<EOL>
Version: 1.0<EOL>
# comments <EOL>
x1, y1, xdim1, ydim1 <EOL>
x2, y2, xdim2, ydim2 <EOL>
.....
xN, yN, xdimN, ydimN <EOL>
NOTES:
– Comments can appear on any line.
– x1 - xN and y1 - yN must be within the range of 0 to 9999.
– xdim1 - xdimN and ydim1 - ydimN must be within the range of 6 - 9999.
– On the Type and Version lines, the only space allowed is between the
word Type or Version and the text which follows. See above.
– Each line must terminate with an <EOL> which can be a carriage return
<CR>, line feed <LF>, or carriage return line feed <CRLF>.
