Printing

WebFilm allows making photo prints, PDFs or prints from applications like a word processor or spreadsheet. In order for a visitor to make a photo print, the original file must first be downloaded. This can only be done if the WebFilm owner has enabled this option in the Album>Edit>Settings>Image: Download tab. To download a picture the visitor can click on the "Options" menu in the album and then select Download. A directory box will pop up. Find the folder where the image is to be saved and give the image a name. The image is then downloaded in its full size and saved on the visitor's computer. It can be printed locally or sent to a photo finishing service. Other file types can be downloaded and launched for printing providing the authoring program used to create the file is installed on the client computer.
