Catalog | Options

The Options tab provides several choices for
the contents of the catalog.
Include with thumbnails. Select the information
about the thumbnails to include in the catalog.
Which files to include. Choose which
files to include in the catalog.
Print heading for each directory. If
this item is checked, then ThumbsPlus will print a heading for
each directory printed in the catalog. This heading will contain
the volume and directory names.
New page for each directory. Check this
option to cause ThumbsPlus to start a new page for each directory
or sub-directory.
Rebuild thumbnails at printer resolution.
Check this option for high-resolution thumbnails, which take
longer to generate (the disk files must be read and reduced
to the proper size), but are much higher quality.
Automatically crop images. Causes ThumbsPlus
to automatically crop images before making the thumbnails. This
removes excess single-color borders from images.
