Firstly Hi everyone, I hope to be around for some time and get to a position where I may eventually be of help to others. However as this is all relatively new to me so I'll start with a couple of questions.

Q1.
I cropped the live view preview so that it represents the final print and having read the instructions I believe that the crop should save on exiting the software for use next time.

This doesn't appear to be happening, is it a bug or is there a solution?

Q2.
Under Photobooth settings/File/Print setup I'm selecting the landscape option and then saving this as my default setting. When I come to reload the software I am having to redo this procedure to set the booth and printer up.

Again is this a bug or is it there a solution.

Only two small niggles I know, but it all adds time to the setup.

Btw once the adjustments were made I saved the Settings and loaded that setting as default Profile 1 before quitting the software.

Any help/suggestions appreciated.

I'll look into this and fix it in the next update

The software uses the default printer settings and so what you need to do is change the default page orientation to landscape.

Hi Chris, I look forward to the update being released, is one imminent?

I'll look at the default printer settings as soon as I get my machine back.

Cheers, Peter
