Live Class Composite uses the file name to create the text for each picture, therefore you have to name this files following this format:
a) Surname and Name: At the file name write first the surname, then a comma (“,”) and finally the name like in Ferguson, Jane.jpg, the application will sort names by surname, then name and print
Jane
Ferguson
Comma position is used to automatically insert a new line.
b) Name and surname: just write it without comma and in the usual format like Jane Ferguson.jpg.
If you prefer to add additional new lines please use the “#” like in Ferguson#Mathematics, Jane.jpg, it will be printed as:
Jane
Ferguson
Mathematics
After placing the pictures in the composite you may edit them but it’s easier to start with correctly named and formatted files; to get this with a minimum effort the application has some unique features to help you.
With Live Class Composite you may add pictures and rename them using a text file, once the texts have been imported you may easily drag the rows into the pictures list; at end clic at rename files.
We all know that writing the correct name in each file is a hard work and you can easily mistype a name, therefore our software includes the option to create a QR code for each composite member using an external text file. This codes can be exported into PDF format both for printing or the be used with a tablet or smartphone.
While taking pictures of the composite members you have to first take a pic of the QR code and then the member, always in this order and for all composite members: QR code + person. At importing into Live Class Composite enable to process QR codes and add all the pictures from your camera (Codes + persons), the application will open the files and look for QR codes, if found the next picture will be renamed to the QR code value.
