Comic Life Magiq 1.0.2.1 update released
A free update for Comic Life Magiq is available for all users.

Identical to 1.0.2c in all but version number, which has been changed to ensure 1.0.2 users are made aware of the 1.0.2c update via the menu: Comic Life Magiq > Check for Updates...

This 1.0.2.1 update is recommended for all 1.0.2 users and fixes a serious saving issue introduced in 1.0.2 that caused images to be left out of the document.

If you're already running 1.0.2c (v10939) you can "Skip This Version".

Head to the plasq downloads page to get the 1.0.2.1 update or update from within Comic Life Magiq.

Page Formats - 2005/05/02 11:25 First off i just want to say that comic life is an awesome and fun program. I hope to use it extensibly on many projects.

I do have a few questions about formats though. I know that the standard comic page is 10x15 and i don't see this as a default setting in th ebox ( hopefully i have missed it) I would really like the default comic page setting in there as well as the manga page settings.

If you check over at tokyopop recently they had a contest and posted the format for manga comic page sizes.

There is a pdf that i downloaded from them that outlines the process. I don't have a link but if you are interested i could send it to you guys.

anyways keep up the great work. My votes are for the zipatone patterns and being able to manually type in the format of the page as well.

cheers

Re:Page Formats - 2005/05/02 19:26 Hey Again,
I found a bug earlier today. I made a page with 6 panels up on a page.

When I selected the "new page like current page " function it made a page with 6 panels but the panels were all off. It made the center line of all the panels shift left.

I tried it a few times to confirm.

The submission guidleines for tokyopop can be found here by the way:

http://www.tokyopop.com/aboutus/guidelines.php

the pdf with the actual measurements can be located more spedifically here:

http://www.tokyopop.com/news/mangatalent/mech_spec.pdf

if i find anymore layout info I will post it.

I do have to say that DC comics has the best layout stuff in the biz. worth a look in their direction.

if you want i can scan a dc page in and show you what it looks like.

Are you guys planing to have any room for indicia on your pages as well? just a thought.

Cheers
-Danny M
