ZoomAlbums Are Fun and Easy to Make!
It's easy to make a ZoomAlbum™. Creating albums of people, activities and events is a highly personalized way to capture and share memories. Making albums can be a family project that gets everyone involved. Here's how to enjoy the process:
First: Load the software into your Windows™ or Macintosh™ PC. If you have a software CD, it's still better to get the latest versions of ZoomAlbum Creator software at the ZoomAlbum website. Visit www.ZoomAlbum.com to download the latest software, and check the website often, because upgrades always appear there first.
Organize your photos by following the on-screen instructions for selecting, dragging, dropping, and organizing your digital photos. You can rotate your photos, and you can add captions, too.
Printing the photo sheet is simple, but you have to follow the instructions. It's important that you understand the features, settings and operation of your Inkjet printer. It's also important to follow the instructions for inserting the ZoomAlbum photo sheets and photo cover sheets into your paper tray. Print a test sheet first to see that everything is set to go. Use blank legal size paper for printing additional test sheets.
Follow the folding instructions on the back of the photo sheet to fold the printed photo sheet paper. In a few seconds you'll turn that flat sheet into a compact little booklet! Now you have a 12 photo album, properly arranged in a secure and permanent progression of pages. (You're actually practicing a little bit of Origami—the ancient Japanese are of paper folding.)
The last thing to do is to insert your completed ZoomAlbum into the hardcover by peeling off the backing of the photo paper and pressing the folded pages into the spine of the hardcover. Press firmly where indicated, and your album is complete. Congratulations.
If you are making a photo cover for your album, the process is similar, but requires another step. To make a photo cover album, you'll select one photograph that will become the front and back cover. Since this one photo will "wrap around" the entire face of the cover, try to pick a photo that will look good as the main visual for both the front and back of your album.
After printing, you will attach your cover photo to the hardbound album following an easy set of "press and fold" instructions. In a snap, you'll have an album that looks as if you had it professionally produced.
ZoomAlbums are the best new way to save and share your photos, and we hope you really enjoy making these charmingly small albums of your favorite memories.
