This section presents the highlights and the most frequently used functions of Stamp Album Studio.

Layout Wizard

The Layout Wizard is often the fastest and easiest way to design your pages. The Layout Wizard will automatically position and align new stamps.

Align Wizard

The Align Wizard can be used to reorder and align already positioned stamps on your page. If you prefer, the Layout Wizard can take into account the current row-orderering of the stamps during this process.

Catalog

Stamp Album Studio integrates with an online stamp catalog: Colnect. The Colnect website is an initiative supported by thousands of collectors world wide who keep track of their collections in an online database.

The Colnect stamp database currently (2016) contains almost 800.000 stamps!

With Stamp Album Studio you can search in this database to find your favorite stamps. Searching can be done on different criteria. Once you have found your stamps you can drag them directly from the catalog onto your page. Sizes and labels are added automatically!

Scan and Analyse

With the function 'Scan and Analyse' you can place several stamps on your scanner at the same time. Then Stamp Album Studio will scan, separate and straighten the stamps fully automatically. You can position the stamps directly on your album page. Because of the fact that Stamp Album Studio has determined the size of the stamps it will also draw a frame around the stamp.

The purpose of a line is mostly to divide a page or beautify it. For example a horizontal line can divide the page in two parts. Stamps above the line have other characteristics than the stamps below the line.

Images

Images can beautify a page and also clearify which stamps are drawn on a page.
