• Astounding 3D Lighting and Surface Effects
Advanced algorithms bring flat shapes to life! Choose one or more
effects, then vary surface and multiple coloured light source
properties. Start with a pattern or a function, adjust parameters for
incredible surface contours, textures, fills— realistic-looking wood,
water, skin, marble and much more. Combine 3D transparency and
Reflection Maps for realistic glass-like effects on non-
reflective/reflective surfaces.
• Instant 3D
Transform your artistic text and shapes into impressive 3D objects
directly on the page! Apply multiple coloured lighting effects (with
directional control), along with custom bevel and lathe effect profiles
to create your very own unique contours.
• Connector Tools
Easily design organizational charts, family trees and other diagrams—
connectors will link your boxes, circles, or other shapes together, with
links being maintained during any object repositioning.
• Stunning logos
Use the Gallery tab for a range of pre-designed logo designs—
alternatively, create from scratch in LogoStudio or base your logo on
existing PagePlus objects!

• Text Frames
Compose story text in text frames then easily position, rotate or size
the frame to suit; connected frames host the same story text and can be
filled automatically by AutoFlow or manual text fitting. Enhanced
text wrap options and separate crop and wrap outlines mean you have
greater control over where text flows and how it appears. Import,
paste, export text in Unicode format... design with a foreign-language
or special fonts and characters. Text paths also benefit from intelligent
text fitting.
• Text Control
Apply text formatting from an on-hand text context toolbar; apply
multi-level bullet and numbering schemas to your paragraphs, even
to your text styles; a Text Styles tab for allocating text attributes to
chosen paragraphs; flexible bullet, numbering and indenting buttons;
and much more!
