| Via this ribbon you can switch the trial version to the full version. Your previously entered data will be untouched! Call the extensive help file from here. The help is context-sensitive. This means that if you call the help while executing a menu item, the help will open exactly to the topic you are currently editing. From here you set program settings or exit the application. | |
| Pages and albums |  |
| Save the currently displayed page. Create new albums and pages, or print the pages. Please note the details of the Ribbon “Pages and albums” in the help file! | |
| Templates |  |
| Choose from the many included templates to get started with your page design. Save your own templates (from PRO version on you can export these templates see “PRO menu” below). Import templates from other Phila Butler users if they have released the templates for import. | |
| Tools |  |
| One of the unique selling points of the Phila Butler is its frame generator. At the same time, several frames and text boxes (even grouped on request!) Can be set up and placed centered on the page. Especially for the representation of complete set of stamps, variations or plate errors, the frame generator makes the work enormously easier.Show/hide guidelines to check the positioning of objects on the page. Another unique feature is the integrated frame preview. Especially exhibitors will benefit from the “overview on mouse click”. Take a preview how your display frame looks visually. Non-exhibitors can also generate an “album preview” in this way to check the sorting in the album. From here you can also create backups or restore backed up data. |
|
| Pictures |  |
| Scan directly into the document. The images (for example, letters or stamps) are automatically measured and, if desired, automatically framed. Read pictures from a digital camera. Please note the reduction factor! Set distances and frame thickness. | |
| Pro Version |  |
| The Version has it all! Work with other collectors or exhibitors on a collaborative project by putting the albums and pages into your DropBox account. Use the dropbox settings for collaborators to share the area so they can view and edit the pages in their local DropBox folder. Ideal for worksgroups or study circles. Insert QR codes in your page to refer to more information about your exhibit. Ideal for “social philately” by e.g. on Wikipedia to link information to the person of the addressee and / or recipient. Interested viewers can scan the code with their smartphone and are immediately directed to the appropriate source of information. Import files in the so-called “Richtext Format” (RTF), which were created by other programs, for example. As a user of this version, you can export your own templates and make them available to others. |
