DESCRIPTION

SOHO Business Cards helps users create one-of-a-kind business card designs. Simple, one-step tools let users quickly draw shapes, add graphics, arrange and align objects, rotate objects and add designer special effects. There are more than 30 shapes with individual controls to help users create logos and custom design elements. Built-in rulers, project grid lines, snap-to-grid, real-time alignment guides and full zoom capabilities make positioning objects a breeze.

SOHO Business Cards can import logos, photos and clip art in popular formats. A built-in Scrapbook lets users store favorite graphics, shapes, and text for quick and easy future reuse. The Scrapbook even remembers any special formatting or attributes applied to an object such as font, stroke color, transparency, masks, etc.

WHAT'S NEW
Version 2.5.1:
  • Now runs under Tiger AND Leopard
  • High resolution images occasionally were drawn at low resolution -- fixed.
  • Standalone inspector windows were sometimes being incorrectly repositioned under the selected graphics (standalone inspectors shouldn't move) -- fixed.
  • Holding down the shift key while resizing a photo now ALWAYS keeps the photo correctly proportioned.
  • Photo objects (photos with a built-in mask for a transparent background) sometimes appeared with white backgrounds -- fixed.
  • Renamed the "Color Wash" effect as "Tint". Also added Tint controls to the Color tools in the inspector window when an image is selected.
  • EPS images aren't a native image format on Mac OS X although they can be displayed with the help of a converter. The converter is very slow so as soon as an EPS image is added to a design, we convert it to a PDF.
  • New built-in updater system allows the application to be automatically updated without downloading and running an installer application.
REQUIREMENTS
Mac OS X 10.4 or later.

DOUGEDDY  I will never buy another product from this company. I purchased their whole suite of products, mainly because I use a Palm. Found all of the programs buggy, hard to use, inconsistent in performance, and even the claim in one of the programs that it would soon have iCal and Address Book support - not of any quality it did not. Their support service matches their programs. I went through all their hoops to contact them - clearly they have no desire to speak with those who buy their product - and never heard a thing from them. Before they became SoHo they were a good company. I think they should now be known as HoHum. Bad service leads to non-returning customers, and I am one.  (Version 2.1.1)

***½.

FRANKS  Nice, easy to use and does what it says it will do. Much faster than starting from scratch with InDesign. However, a rough layout from SOHO BC can be placed into InDesign for tighter control and additional work.  (Version 1.6)

ANONYMOUS  Purchased Business Card Program for my I book G4, downloaded it, then started working, just as I had a complete card finished,

Program stopped running and

hasn't run since, won't open, doesn't show up, not a thing. Did I waist my money and time? Or is my brand new I book g4 non compatible? If some trouble shooting tips had come with the package that would have been great.  (Version 1.3)
