You can define printing templates which are collections of settings for the output. Saving and deleting these templates has been enhanced as well.
New Text Options (10.0)
OpenType Functions
With the OpenType functions you achieve even better typographic results. While InDesign only supports 20, VivaDesigner supports more than 140 OpenType functions.
Duden
Duden has further improved hyphenation and spelling and grammar correction. VivaDesigner includes the very latest version of Duden 2019.
New Eyedropper function
With the Eyedropper function you apply all the attributes of an object, text or an image to other objects, text or images in seconds.
Preview Quality (9.5)
Layout programs normally display a preview of the imported image in 72 DPI. When using vector images (illustrations) and/or you zoom in, you won´t see to many details (ie. small font sizes). In the new version you can define the quality of the preview by default in the preferences or for every individual image.
Convert Text to Paths
You can convert text outlines to object paths and edit these paths. At the same time, holes in letters are retained. These new objects can also contain text or images.
Pathfinder
Several objects can be combined to one object with the Pathfinder. Thus you can create compound paths in a simple way. With this function, you can also create transparent holes in objects.
Clipping (Automatic)
Normally the borders of an image can only be displayed transparent if an Alpha channel or a clipping path exists. VivaDesigner 8 can display images with white or uni-colored borders as transparent automatically (clipping), so that you often save yourself this time-consuming work.
Fast Object/Image Rotation
With the new Rotation tool, image content (A) and objects (B) can be rotated in seconds without changing tools.
Improved InDesign® Exchange
The import of Adobe® InDesign® IDML documents w.e.f. version CS4 to CC has been further improved. Conversion of older versions than CS4 are available as a service on request. At the same time the export to Adobe® InDesign® (CS4 to CC) has been considerably improved. Thus, depending on the complexity of the documents, a permanent exchange between both programs is possible.
Quark XPress Conversion
With the introduction of VivaDesigner 8, we offer the optional service of a conversion from QuarkXPress documents in formats 4.0 to 9.0. Send us your QuarkXPress documents to check the quality of the conversion. Depending on the program edition a certain amount of documents are converted free of charge, for additional documents we raise a minimal administration fee.
