The launch of Multi-Ad Creator sparked a revolution in the way ads were produced. The install base for Creator quickly grew and it became the preferred application for ad production professionals.
Creator Professional is the cross-platform replacement for the current desktop products. This new product is written on a platform-independent code-base, providing Windows users with the same ad production capabilities as Mac users.

All Features Included - We take pride in the fact that Creator Professional is more complete out of the box than any other desktop publishing program. With Creator Professional, we furnish you with a complete program: no extensions or plug-ins required. Much of Creator Professional's functionality is unavailable in other layout software even with the addition of Extensions and Plug-ins, but if you tried, you would well exceed $3,000 per copy of layout software on your own. Even then you could not match the way Creator Professional delivers its features in an easy-to-use and learn interface.
If you develop advertising or promotional materials, MultiAd Creator is made for the way you work. This sophisticated layout software is ideal for design and production, with powerful tools to boost your efficiency and creativity.

New key features in MultiAd Creator 8

Soft Shadows: This feature opens up new creative possibilities for professional graphic designers. You can apply a soft shadow to any element, path or graphic. Live text or text that has been converted to a path can also have a soft shadow. You can adjust the horizontal and vertical offset as well as the radius to create just the right special effect.
Container Self-Scaling: This feature allows any element to be assigned its own individual container setting. This setting supersedes any previous setting on the tool itself. There is no need for you to go back and review or change the tool setting every time you wish to contain an item in the element. You can simply double-click to select the element info and choose from four container settings.
Sort: This feature allows you to place a text block with information that contains names, prices or addresses, and have the option to resort that text block to accommodate a change in the desired order of the entries. You can resort the prices or numbers in ascending or descending order. Words, such as names or addresses, can also be resorted in a different order as well. Creator provides the option to select sections of the text to resort, no matter if the sort criteria is the first word in the paragraph, the last word or any word in between.
Multi-Column Text: This feature divides a placed text block into the desired number of columns and allows for a user-defined gutter width. You simply place a text block, click on a text block setting and fill in the number of columns and gutter width, and Creator will replace the original text block. This feature allows you to quickly define a space with a text block and move on immediately to formatting.
Edit Starting Point of Text on a Path: Use text on a path feature to apply text to the contours of a Creator shape element (rectangles, ovals, polygons and paths). The insertion point will default to the beginning of the path. You can now change the starting point of the text by repositioning the handle.
Frame Weight with Key Equivalents: Increase and decrease frame weight with command-option-period and command-option-comma on a Mac or with alt-equals and alt-minus on a PC.     Draw Elements from Center: Create custom shapes using the eight Creator drawing tools. By default, Creator will draw the shape from one side to the other. You can now hold the option key (Mac OS) or Alt (Windows) to draw the shape from the center. Mark Elements as Unfinished: Denote any element selected as a placeholder for elements that require additional input. An X will be placed over all selected elements to indicate that they have become placeholders. You can indicate a placeholder for art (such as photographs) that is physically pasted into the document after it is printed or create a placeholder to remind you to add the element later. Variable Underline Weight: Use several typographical options to create a document with the look you want. Choosing the right typeface, type style, size and spacing are some of the ways you can improve the appearance of your document. The Character Attributes dialog box allows you to apply existing type styles or specify character attributes for selected text, including applying an underline. The weight of text underlines can also be changed. Edit Master Spread Text and Elements: Edit text or change elements in an active spread that are in a master spread. This option allows for the use of a master spread in many document pages and the change in appearance of one or more master spread elements or text on one or more active spread pages. Text Locking: Use Text Flow Settings dialog box to specify default tab settings, the first baseline offset in each text block, and lock or unlock the text flow so that it cannot be cut, cleared or reformatted. Zero Degree Editing: Edit rotated, skewed or flipped text in upright orientation.
