Corel Photo House 2

Setting up the page

When you create a blank image, you set the image size and resolution and choose the paper color. The image's size and resolution are particularly important because they affect both the size of the file and the quality of your printed image. If you're not sure of the difference between image size and resolution, see “Image size and resolution” in the online help.

The Corel Photo House 2 Desktop

The desktop is what you see on your screen when you use Corel Photo House 2. The picture below shows the desktop and identifies important items you use to create and edit photos.

If you prefer more space on your desktop, you can hide the Color Palette and toolbar shown above. To hide them, click View, Color Palette or View, Toolbar. A check mark next to each command name indicates that the item will display on your screen.

The Toolbox

The Toolbox holds tools you can use to create and edit bitmaps. They're easy to use — just click a tool to select it. Once you select a tool, instructions for using it appear on the Guides page of the Notebook.
