Page Layout Power
Most designers today do more than build Web sites. They are also responsible for creating print brochures, ads, business cards, etc. Canvas 7 builds on the existing page layout strengths from previous releases.

One of the major strengths of Canvas is its type manipulation capability. Most of these are familiar to users of Adobe Pagemaker. You can place text along any vector path or shape, control it’s strokes and fills, place it in multiple columns or wrap it inside unusual shapes. You also have control over kerning, leading, and styles.

Type Palette

There are also spell checking (including auto correcting), text searching and replacing, and tab controls. Designers can also apply effects to text such as envelope, extrude, rotate, skew, shadows and more.

Adding effects to text is easy

Adding clipping paths to text and graphics is equally fast and painless in Canvas 7. Select the text and graphic and click - make clipping path.

Create cool clipping path effects

Designers can also create master pages or templates that can be used for brochures and reports. The use of image proxies are an efficient way of conserving time and system memory. A proxy is an image placeholder or low resolution graphic that is linked to the high-resolution file stored in a Canvas Image File on disk.
