A Quick AlbumEasy Tutorial - How to Make the Source File

So here is the information that forms the Album defaults:



To start any line that begins with a # sign is a comment and does not make it into the album page

The first command is the one that sets the Page Size (in millimeters)
Next we have the margins (again in millimeters) the order is Left Right Top Bottom (so here we have 15mm on the left 10mm on the right 10mm on the top and 15mm on the bottom).
The Borders are set next in the order of Outer thickness Inner thickness Space between the two (so .8mm outer border with a 1mm space followed by a .2mm border).
Next is the page title the first command is the font type, followed by the size and then the text (Helvetica Normal 13 points in size titled Canada 2014).
The Spacing command dictates the spacing between elements in mm the first number os the horizontal spacing followed by the vertical (6mm horizontally and 4mm vertically).

The last command is the one that creates a page.  Funny enough it is PAGE_START every album has to have at least 1 PAGE_START.

Finally we are at where we will add stamps to the page. For your information stamps are added a row at a time.



We begin with the Row start, the the last 2 characters dictate the spacing for this the spacing is even spaced.  For other options click here and look for the section for commands for individual pages or just use the help feature in the program.  The other info in the brackets describes the font, font size and the thickness of the border around the stamp. (Helvetica normal font, 6 points in size with a 0.2mm border around the stamp.)

The Stamp_Add adds the individual stamp the details are Width Height followed by three lines of text that appear in the box and 1 lines of text below the stamp.  in order of Left Centre Right You need the "" even if you are not adding any text.

so using the first stamp above it is 36mm wide, 36mm high, no text, a Description, no text inside the stamp border with no text, A description, no text in a line under the stamp.

Alyn, thanks so much for putting together this great tutorial which gives me a good understanding of how AlbumEasy works.
