ADVANCED DESIGNER

The Advanced Designer is recommended for very advanced users only.  It allows you to do things like add a logo image to your Song Sheet.

Further help for the Advanced Designer can be found by selecting "Help | Help Topics" from within the Advanced Designer window.  This will open a PDF file (using your default PDF viewer, e.g. Adobe Reader).   The contents of this file has been written by Digital Metaphors Corporation, the developers and owners of ReportBuilder, which SlideGen licenses and uses as its Advanced Designer. 

If you have any questions about how to use the Advanced Designer in the context of SlideGen, please send us an email.
