![]() ![]() ![]() Clip Studio Paint's forum is active so you can also find answers from fellow users. You can find tutorials and a FAQs page on the official CELSYS website (opens in new tab), or you can email a customer representative, but there is no live chat or phone support. Although, if you're spending all that money on drawing tools, you'd be better served by Clip Studio Paint EX (opens in new tab). One recommendation we have for anyone taking their comic book creation seriously is to purchase a compatible graphics pen and tablet, as well as a drawing glove, to get the most out of your drawing experience. If you'd prefer a more mobile option and are willing to pay a subscription fee, this software is also available as an app for tablets. Since this is a large and powerful program, you will need more than 1GB of available RAM to run it smoothly, but most of the best home computers (opens in new tab) now come with 16GB as standard, which leaves you with plenty for illustration software. (Image credit: Graphixly) Clip Studio Paint Pro review: Compatibility and supportĬlip Studio Paint Pro is compatible with both Mac and PC computers, so a wide range of artists can use it. Running your text through Google Docs or a free version of any online grammar checker (opens in new tab) should work just fine. However, there is no spell check, so you'll want to make sure everything is spelled correctly. You have access to all the fonts previously downloaded on your computer, and you can choose the size and color of your font. They let you choose the shape and size of the initial bubble, as well as choose where the tail comes out and points to. We absolutely love the word balloon tools - an important aspect of comic software. This means you can’t organize, arrange or work on multiple pages within one file, which is an especially helpful feature when you want to create a digital or physical comic book. Unfortunately, the Pro version doesn't provide extensive desktop publishing tools like EX does. You can use these posable figures to help you accurately draw complex gestures and body positions. We were pleased to find that you can access the posable 3D models in this version, which is a feature that could easily have been locked to the EX version of this software. There are over 10,000 free assets, and many more available for a few dollars each. This software also gives you access to plenty of assets including characters, backgrounds, props and effects that you can quickly add to your panels. Clip Studio Paint Pro review: Assets and features In terms of file types, Paint Pro lets you import and work on common image files like JPEG, TIFF, PNG and even PSD. Clip Studio Paint Pro gives you access to 36 pre-designed comic panel pages, or you can use the program to design your own from scratch. You can adjust the vector settings to create smooth, bold strokes over your sketches, and use the program's tools to beef up (or slim down) specific line areas to make your drawings look more professionally drawn. You can also use the pen tool to create freeform shapes.Īs far as drawing tools go, this program offers some of the best on the market. ![]() There are plenty of brushes, airbrushes, markers and shading tools to help you get the perfect look for your drawings, or you can create your own brushes to suit your needs. Amazing, right? This basically means you can paint pixels as well as draw vector lines in one place instead of having to switch between two programs. Since you can use raster and vector layers in Clip Studio Paint Pro, it is somewhat of a mix between Illustrator and Photoshop – minus the photo correction tools. If you’d prefer a simpler program that isn’t drawing-intensive, you might be interested in Pixton (opens in new tab). While Clip Studio Paint Pro is a little more 'feature intense' than other comic creators we've reviewed, dedicated novices should be able to get a handle on it after a few hours. When you first start using Clip Studio Paint Pro you'll quickly start to realize that many of the hotkeys are the same as Photoshop's, so if you are already familiar with Adobe's programs, it should be easy to pick up. Clip Studio Paint Pro review: Ease of use ![]() ![]() ![]() If these multiples are confusing to you, for now just make the total number of photos in the "Original Photos" file equal 8, 64, 256, or 1024. For example if you only have 60 photos the highest multiple would be 64(8x8) it will take 16 8x8 photo squares to make up a 32x32 square. It is best to make the images the highest multiple of 32. I copied 6 photos to make the total number of files 256 (16x16). To see how many photos are in the the file Right click "Original Photos">properties and look for "Contains" The number of files is how many photos are in the file. Copy all the photos for the background in to the file called "Original Photos". Name one "Original Photos" and one "Resized Photos". Make 2 folders on your desktop or other desired location. For my photo I chose landscape.(see second image) Save the photo.īackground Photos- I have found if you use 1024 (32x32) photos, it makes the perfect balance of the main photo's resolution and size of the back ground photos. If the photo is portrait, set the height to 600px and the width to 400px. (see first image) Image>canvas size- If the photo is landscape, set the width to 600px and the height to 400px. Image>Image Size- Set the width (if the photo should be landscape) or the height (if the photo should be portrait ) to 600px. ![]() I first re-sized the width of the image to 600px. That gave me the ratio I needed to crop my image. To keep the ratio the same for the image I was working on and the final image, (The ratio will change based on your final photo size) I took 20/30=.6666667. (see above image for location of crop tool) Sizing Main Photo - Now you need to think ahead to what size you want the final print so that the final print isn't distorted. Select the crop tool and crop the image to the desired look. To do this, select File>open then choose the correct file. If the image you have chosen isn't as zoomed in as desired, open up Photoshop and open the main photo. It works better if the photo is close up. Choosing Main Photo- The main image is the larger Photo in the mosaic. ![]() ![]() ![]() Let's see if we can also change some of the visual aspects of the form fields. Now that we've added an extra field, we might want to change the reset action: form.getField("reset").setAction(PdfAction.createResetForm( "agreement", "Off", PdfFormField.TYPE_CHECK) PdfButtonFormField checkField = PdfFormField.createCheckBox( The same goes for adding fields to a PdfAcroForm instance: PdfAcroForm form = PdfAcroForm.getAcroForm(pdfDoc, true) Whether you're creating a document from scratch, or adding content to an existing document, has no impact on the instructions we use. The code to add the text is similar to what we did in chapter 2. showText("I agree to the terms and conditions.") PdfFontFactory.createFont(FontConstants.HELVETICA), 12) We can do this using a PdfPage object as a parameter for the PdfCanvas constructor: PdfCanvas canvas = new PdfCanvas(pdfDoc.getFirstPage()) If we want to add content to a content stream, we need to create a PdfCanvas object. PdfDoc.getFirstPage().addAnnotation(ann) setContents("Please, fill out the form.") Just like in chapter 4, we add the annotation to a page obtained from the PdfDocument instance: PdfAnnotation ann = new PdfTextAnnotation(new Rectangle(400, 795, 0, 0)) Where it says // add content, we'll add the annotation, the extra text, and the extra check box. New PdfDocument(new PdfReader(src), new PdfWriter(dest)) We'll repeat the code we've seen in the previous chapter in the Add Annotations And Content example. We'll start by adding a text annotation, some text, and a new check box. In this chapter, we'll take it a step further. In the previous chapter, we took an existing PDF form, job_application.pdf, and we filled out the fields. We'll load an existing file using PdfReader and we'll use the reader object to create a new PdfDocument. In this example, we'll continue working with existing PDFs. We took an existing interactive PDF form and filled it out, either resulting in a pre-filled form, or resulting in a flattened document that was no longer interactive. In the last couple of examples of chapter 4, we worked with an existing PDF document. In the examples for chapter 1 to 3, we've always created a new PDF document from scratch with iText.

Traffic was busy and merchant ships were easy pickings.Īlthough pirates would search the ship's cabins for gold and silver, the main loot consisted of cargo such as grain, molasses, and kegs of rum. It's no coincidence that piracy came to flourish in the Caribbean and along America's Eastern Seaboard during piracy's heyday. The criminals were quickly caught and brought back to the mainland, where they were hanged. When he returned to port, Caesar immediately fitted a squadron of ships and set sail in pursuit of the pirates. When the money finally arrived, Caesar was let go. ![]() Instead of throwing him overboard, as they did with most victims, the pirates held Caesar for ransom for 38 days. One of the earliest and most high profile incidents of piracy occurred when a band of pirates captured Julius Caesar, the Roman emperor-to-be, in the Greek islands. And it exists today, primarily in the South China Sea and along the African coast. While the period from the late 1600s to the early 1700s is usually referred to as the "Golden Age of Piracy," the practice existed long before Blackbeard and other famous pirates struck terror in the hearts of merchant seamen along the Eastern Seaboard and Caribbean. There was no air conditioning, ice for cocktails, or clean sheets aboard the typical pirate ship." "Life at sea was hard and dangerous, and interspersed with life-threatening storms or battles. The life of a pirate was never as glorious and exciting as depicted in the movies, said David Moore, curator of nautical archaeology at the North Carolina Maritime Museum in Beaufort. It was a world of staggering violence and poverty, constant danger, and almost inevitable death. In the latest flick, Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl,which sails into theaters today, the pirate hero, played by Johnny Depp, is a lovable rogue.īut what was life really like for an early 18th-century pirate? The answer: pretty grim. Hollywood movies-filled with buried treasures, eye patches, and the Jolly Roger-depict pirate life as a swashbuckling adventure. The most famous buccaneers have been shrouded in legend and folklore for so long that it's almost impossible to distinguish between myth and reality. Pirates have been figures of fascination and fear for centuries. ![]() ![]() Make sure your PC is compatible with Bluetooth 4.0 (LE): Most Microsoft or Surface Bluetooth mice and keyboards require a PC with Bluetooth 4.0 or newer and designed to be full featured with Windows 10. ![]() Start the Bluetooth troubleshooter: Select Start > Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot > Additional troubleshooters.

This is why the release of the macOS High Sierra is important for both parties. In other words, despite providing an incredible amount of customization options and cost-friendly prices, it is very likely that Mac users won’t bother to visit Shutterfly but instead stick to Apple’s integrated solution. The nature of this extension only puts Shutterfly at a huge disadvantage, since Photos has an in-built (albeit rather primitive) photo book editor that also provides the option to order your photo books right away – without ever leaving the app for a second. Basically it’s nothing more than a bridge connecting Photos with the photo book editor, since the rest of the photo book building and the ordering process still has to be completed by visiting your online Shutterfly account. Of course, there is already a Shutterfly extension available for Photos, however, the only problem with this tool is that it only serves one purpose: the uploading of chosen pictures to Shutterfly’s online storage. But what if you don’t want to leave your favorite photo app, yet still create photo books with the help of the best photo book companies?Įnter macOS High Sierra, Apple’s latest OS for Macs, with a truly unique upgrade for its Photos app: direct integration of Shutterfly. There is still one problem with these sorts of handy solutions: in most cases photos have to be fetched manually from devices, social media accounts and cloud storage, and then get edited on the web. Being able to create a unique photo book from the comfort of your home, customizing to your liking and then ordering it in such a way that it gets delivered right to your doorstep is without doubt the epitome of convenience. ![]() ![]() ![]() An ETL engine that’s capable of generating Scala or Python code.A flexible scheduler for handling job monitoring.Since its initial release in August 2017, AWS Glue has been operating as a fully-managed Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) service. Keep in mind, though, that Redshift is costlier since it charges for both compute and storage. This means you can, for instance, apply it in real-time data analysis, clickstream events, and log analysis. Then AWS Redshift, contrastingly, is ideal for analyzing large structured data sets - as it’s capable of generating results much faster than Athena. ![]() It should be able to work on structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data formats. Instead, Redshift relies on clusters, for which you’ll be required to bring in the data extracts and create tables before proceeding with your query.Īs such, you could say that AWS Athena is best reserved for instances when you need to use Presto and ANSI SQL to launch ad-hoc queries on Amazon S3 data sets. ![]() The queries here don’t just run directly. It runs directly over Amazon S3 data sets as a read-only service, setting up external tables without manipulating the S3 data sources.Īmazon Redshift, on the other hand, is a petabyte-scale data warehouse service that’s based on PostgreSQL. Well, AWS Athena is a serverless service that doesn’t require any additional infrastructure to scale, manage, and build data sets. But, overall, Amazon Athena shines in terms of cost and portability, while Redshift triumphs when it comes to scale and performance. There are many factors that come into play when comparing AWS Athena to Redshift. How Does Athena Compare To AWS Redshift And AWS Glue? AWS Athena vs. This architecture allows Amazon to charge Athena users for only the queries they run, consequently making the service a conveniently cost-effective option for organizations leveraging Amazon S3. With auto scaling, even when you’re dealing with complex queries and large data sets, you can count on it to execute your queries in parallel and quickly generate the results. The fact that Athena is serverless means you won’t be required to set up or manage any infrastructure. You’ll be able to retrieve the query results in a couple of seconds.ĪWS Athena is also serverless and built to scale automatically. To start, open your AWS Management Console, direct Amazon Athena towards your Amazon S3 data, and then launch standard SQL queries. This system was introduced to simplify the whole process of analyzing Amazon S3 data. What Is AWS Athena And When Would You Use It?ĪWS Athena is best described as an interactive query service that’s capable of seamlessly using standard Structured Query Language (SQL) to conduct analysis of data stored in Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3). What Are The Benefits And Disadvantages Of Athena?.How Does Athena Compare To AWS Redshift And Glue?.What Is AWS Athena And When Would You Use It?.To help give you a better understanding of the Amazon service, this article dives deep into what exactly AWS Athena is, what it does, how it runs, how much it costs, and how it compares with AWS Redshift and AWS Glue. AWS Athena also happens to have its fair share of weaknesses, which could substantially influence your overall data analysis. ![]() There are even claims that it’s not only cheaper than similar services, but also manages to save you the trouble of managing infrastructure. Whatever you choose to call it, there’s no doubt that Athena is already creating ripples in the big data analytics space, alongside the likes of Amazon DynamoDB, and Redshift. AWS Athena is the name, although its creators prefer to stick with Amazon Athena.
