To crop the background image, drag one of the eight sizing handles that appear on the

Removing a Card Background
To remove a background from a card design, follow these steps:
1. On the File menu, click Layout Properties, and then click the Front or Back tab
(depending on which background you want to remove).
2. Click the Delete button then click OK to return to the workspace or repeat the
instructions for importing an image (see “Importing the Card Background” ).
Export a Card Background
To export a card background, on the File menu, click Layout Properties, or click the Lay-
out Properties button on the toolbar. Click the Front tab. When there is currently a back-
ground image on the layout, the Save As button is enabled. Save the image file with a
new name, define the file type, and specify the directory to which it will be saved.
Change the Background Color
This feature allows you to add a solid color to your card’s background. This color will be
printed on your finished card.
Note: If you use both a background color and a background image file, the background
color will be covered over by the image file and will not
be visible. To change the card’s background color, perform these steps:
1. On the File menu, click Layout Properties, or click the Layout Properties button on
the toolbar.
2. Click the Front or Back tab. Click the Color list to choose one of the sixteen preset
colors or click the ellipses button next to it to define a custom color using the Win-
dows color dialog box. Click OK.
To remove the background color, select the X from the top of the preset color list. This
removes any background color previously applied to your card design.
