Welcome!
Welcome to PagePlus X8, the award-winning Desktop Publishing
(DTP) solution from Serif. PagePlus is the easiest way to get superior
publishing results, whether on your desktop or via professional printing.
It's simple for anyone to create, publish and share their designs as
outstanding printed documents, stunning PDFs, PDF slideshows,
tables/charts, modern eBooks or via web page.
To make life so much easier, PagePlus comes with an impressive
selection of design templates, creative content, and styles for you to use.
As a result, publishing to a professional standard is easily achievable for
experienced and inexperienced users alike! You'll also be able to reuse
existing content by importing PDF documents and word processing
documents. On the flipside, you'll be able to export drawn objects to all
the latest graphic file formats.
PagePlus X8 doesn't stop at superior publishing. Its range of design
studios makes PagePlus stand out from the crowd—Cutout Studio for
cutting pictures out from their backgrounds, LogoStudio for custom
logo design, and PhotoLab for powerful image adjustment and effect
combinations. You simply cannot afford to miss them!

New features
New features and enhancements introduced in PagePlus X8 give you
more professional-looking publications, more control, more style, more
design power, and new publishing capabilities!
Professional Text Handling
• Text alignment to a Baseline Grid (see p. 63)
Give newsletters, brochures, magazines, programmes, handouts and
other multi-column publications a clean, consistent, professional
finish by neatly aligning text across different columns, frames, and
pages, even when font sizes vary. Baseline Grid is available as a
setting for entire publications or individual frames.
• New text frame layout controls (see p. 60)
Give text in frames a neater look with column rules and fine tune
spacing, or padding. Apply a mirrored layout for facing pages
publications (that have different left and right pages). Uneven
columns and margins can simply switch from one side of the frame
to the other when moving between pages, without you having to
edit text or frame settings.
• Auto-Correct enhancements
Improvements include multi-word auto-correct, which can help
insert phrases when you start a sentence, and automatic detection of
lists, hyperlinks, and email addresses.
Digital Publishing and Design
• Place PDFs
In addition to full PDF editing it’s now also possible to simply place
supplied PDFs into your publications and designs as non-editable

images, with an even higher level of import accuracy. Crop to trim
boxes, bleed boxes, and more.
• Improved EPUB digital publishing (see p. 156)
Take advantage of the power available to readers, computers, tablets
and other displays by publishing with new EPUB 3 compatibility.
Produce attractive designs with full layout, so publications like
textbooks, comics, info sheets, children’s books and sales sheets look
just as you want when displayed on modern gadgets. Also benefit
from new device-specific blank ePublications, themed templates,
plus other EPUB improvements including publishing profiles,
image size limits, and setting the first page as a cover.
• New and improved filter effects (see p. 115)
Add a new Trail effect, add ripple effects to reflections, apply a cut
off setting for feathering, a directional/gradient feather, and an
outline and contoured line texture for variable-intensity drop
shadows. Also now select from CMYK and scheme colours when
formatting shadows, glows and other effects, ideal for high quality
professional printing, single-colour print runs, or colour-scheming
publications.
• Document intent (see p. 28)
Choose from the outset whether you want your publication to
conform to highly accurate print and PDF standards or to more
closely match eReader and Web browser text rendering, and choose
between CMYK or RGB colour modes. You can still publish in any
format, but choosing the intent and colour space on set up gives you
more accurate design and output.
• Fresh theme layout and Pro templates
New Geo, Level, and Partition theme layouts provide sets of
matching publications that can be adapted for a broad range of
industries, clubs, charities and other end uses. New polished Pro
template packs similarly offer a range of publications, a way to look
highly contemporary and professional. Publications available to

each theme include letterheads and stationery, marketing materials,
labels, and ePublications.
Advanced Control
• Style your tables and calendars (see p. 87)
Improved table and calendar styles can be applied from an attractive
gallery that pops down from the context toolbar. The Table
AutoFormat designer gets a little makeover too, so it's easier to
create and save your own table and calendar formats. Also access
those custom styles from the new gallery.
• Place objects with greater flexibility
Placement operations have been improved to include Place by
Centre, Place by Diameter and Place by Radius. When placing
multiple pictures (by importing files, scanning multiple photos, or
opening multi-page publications) you can select and place pictures
in the order you choose using a new pop-up window.
• New hyperlink styling options
Hyperlinks are easier to style with publication-wide settings now
incorporated into publication settings, and the ability to override
settings for each hyperlink.
• New fill and transparency controls
Easily edit fills and transparencies within updated, advanced Fill
and Transparency editors, and access these new controls from other
attribute dialogs, e.g. Character and Text Style settings.
Welcome 7
Workspace
• High DPI support
Windows display scaling is supported with automatic selection of
suitably sized, sharp-looking buttons, controls and menus, so for
very high-resolution displays, displays at a distance, or for those
with impaired vision, PagePlus X8 will look better than ever.
• Paragraph tab
Change paragraph settings without having to open a dialog—the
new Paragraph tab adds popular controls to your tabbed workspace
for greater efficiency.
Colours
• Replace colours and manage the publication palette (see p. 127)
Replace regular colours across entire publications in one go, as
easily as when updating colour schemes—ideal for quickly
refreshing imported PDFs that do not use scheme colours. Manage
your palette with new Clean and Update options, keeping it useful
and tidy as designs evolve.
• Colour picking from pictures
Load a picture directly into your Colour tab to grab colours without
having to place on your page, so you can maintain focus on your
design while picking co-ordinated colours.
• Colour tab saturation control
A new slider on the Colour tab adjusts saturation, making it
possible to easily select pastels, greys, and complementary tones.
• New Pantone® colour palettes
Stay fashionable, design with a competitive edge, and print with
confidence by choosing from 84 new, professionally-selected
colours from an updated Pantone® PLUS palette.
