ABOUT THE CUTOUTS
Specifically created and fully tested for use with Qimage, this extensive collection of 200 different styled cutouts are a great way to quickly and easily add new and exciting photo edges to your Qimage prints, giving them an attractive, distinctive look. They're particularly useful in enhancing the appearance of framed prints. To ensure the cutouts retain their edge styles (no obvious jaggies), and fade types preserve their smooth transition areas when applied to large prints, they have been created as 2500x2500 300dpi jpeg files.

When previewed the oval cutouts are circular in shape, with the rectangular collection being more or less square shaped. However, when applied to a print they are stretched to fit the image then stretched again to fit the paper giving them their oval and rectangular appearance. 

The cutouts, which include deckled, ripped, feathered edge and fade styles are equally effective used in either portrait or landscape orientation, and at $18.00 US are a cost effective way to add multiple new styles to your Qimage cutouts collection.

COPY THE CUTOUTS INTO QIMAGE
Cutouts should be copied from their CD-ROM disc folders then pasted into Qimage's cutouts folder, which by default is located at; "C:\Program files\Qimage\Cutouts". Total file size to be copied = 52.6MB.

The cutouts are added to your prints from within Qimage's Batch Filter window via its cutout function, and their file names will appear in the Batch Filter window's Cutout section's drop down list. The first time you open Qimage's Cutout Preview window after adding the new cutouts the thumbnail previews should update automatically. If they don't, follow these steps;

• With at least one photo in the queue, open Qimage's Batch Filter window
• Left click Cutout button located in the Image Effects section
• On the Cutout Preview window left click the third icon from the left 
• On the Confirm box left click Yes

Please note; on older, slower computers thumbnail updating could take a few minutes.

FADING TO COLOURS OTHER THAN WHITE 
To enable a cutout to fade to a colour other than white (default fade colour) follow these steps;

• From inside Qimage's Cutouts folder create a copy of the original cutout file
• Rename the copy, retaining the original file name but adding the fade colour identifier enclosed in square brackets as part of the file name (with the first two numbers separated by commas); e.g. qovaldk_003.jpg to qovaldk_003[0,128,0].jpg, produces a cutout fading to green while at the same time retaining the cutout's original shape

Please note; if you would like your prints to fade into the page background colour as set in Qimage's main window preview page, do not add any fade colour identifier numbers to any of  the original cutout files.

Comprehensive information about cutouts can be found in Qimage's help files.
