Boinx FotoMagico 1.8: Slide Shows for Aperture Users


Munich, Germany - Nov. 22nd, 2006. FotoMagico 1.8 now integrates
libraries from Apple's Aperture software in the Images tab so that
photos in the Aperture Library can be accessed directly from within
FotoMagico. The addition of the "New with Template" command makes it
easier for users to create slide shows with the correct settings for the
final presentation environment.

Use Aperture Libraries

FotoMagico 1.8 knows how to read Aperture's library format (Aperture 1.5
or later) and can display images stored in Apple's professional photo
management tool in the Images tab for easy use in a FotoMagico
slideshow. This easy integration offers Aperture users a compelling path
to great photo presentations.

New From Template

To make it easier for the user to create slide shows with correct
settings for the final presentation destination, a "New with Template"
command has been added. The users chooses from the most popular
scenarios, including "Live Presentation on a Mac", "DVD on Television",
"Live Presentation on a Projector" and others, and FotoMagico sets up
the project automatically. This makes it a lot easier to get the
settings for stage size and export right.

Built-in Store

Another new thing is the "Buy now..." menu item which guides you to the
closest outlet based on your system's region setting. Customers from the
US for example may use the built-in Kagi Store while customers from
Germany, Austria and Switzerland will be directed to Application Systems
Heidelberg.

Availablity and Pricing

Boinx FotoMagico 1.8 is available for download immediately as a
Universal Application from the website http://www.fotomagico.com. The
update is free for all current owners of a valid FotoMagico license. New
license keys are for sale via Kagi for US $79. A five day demo license
for evaluation can be requested at the website.
