Default page size
Use this setting to change the page size of all default pages. The editor has a few predefined page sizes from which you can choose:
A3, A4, A5, Letter, Tabloid, Legal and Executive.
You can also set the size to Custom, in that case you can change the settings under Width x Height [mm] to any size in [mm] you wish.
[ ] Landscape
Check this box to make the default page a landscape page.
Default page color
The default page color is white, here you can change it to any other color. Note: this color will get printed.
Default margins
Here you can set the margins that will be used for all default pages. Margins mostly serve as an indication when editing so you know which are the limits for putting shapes on the page. In the "Add Multiple Images" wizard the margins are observed and photos are placed exactly between them.
| · | Left This is the distance from the left edge of the physical paper to the left margin
|
| · | Top This is the distance from the top edge of the physical paper to the top margin
|
| · | Right This is the distance from the right edge of the physical paper to the right margin
|
| · | Bottom This is the distance from the bottom edge of the physical paper to the botom margin

Gridsize in [mm]
Whenever you use grid or dots as helpers, the document window will show them with an intermediate distance that is entered here.
When using Snap To Grid, the shape's left/top position will be aligned with the grid points. Grid points are calculated from the very left/top of the page.
Gridcolor
Here you can change the default color of the grid lines or dots.
Thumbnail size
Change the size in pixels of the thumbnails used in the thumbnail list and in the document. Note that the document stores a thumbnail of each page. When changing this setting, all page thumbnails must be updated. For large documents this may take a while.
[ ] Background Image
By default, the pages do not contain a background image. You can set one by checking the mark. You will be prompted with an Open Image dialog box to choose an image. The image will be drawn on each page.
[ ] Tiled
When you check [x] Tiled, the background image will be tiled (repeated) as many times as neccesary to fill the page. This is an ideal setting for textured pages.
When [ ] Tiled is not checked (default), the background image is stretched over the complete page. Use an appropriate image to avoid aspect errors.
Example: this document shows a tiled background of a "marble" image.
