    Graphics software for repro cards/boxes

    For those the dabble in repro cards/boxes - what software program do you use? I have been using Micrografx Photomagic for some other projects, but I have found it is a bit outdated.

    Any suggestions on regular programs or shareware?

    Thanks,

    Lucy

        Hmmmm....

        I've been using Corel Photopaint for years. I think any pic editing program will do the trick. Putting a package together isn't a real tough endeavour on computer. (Making it look GOOD is; but that's more a user/experience/talent thing than a software thing.)

        Go off a standard template. (There's one here at the Museum. Somewhere.....) The seams and panels are all solid lines so you can fill 'em real easy. Then you just gotta add the design elements and scale it for printing. And glue it to some bristol board. And cut it. And fold it.
