For those last-minute design jobs, you can turn to the palette library, which contains prefab backgrounds and animation paths, including flips, fades, and rotations. Once your text is set, you can drag and drop an animation path onto it and preview the result. Only EPS and BMP files can be imported as backgrounds, but you can export your finished graphics in GIF, JPEG, BMP, TIFF, PNG, and a variety of other formats. Animation can be output as animated GIFs or AVIs. FontFX renders effects with surprising speed, and thanks to its templates, the company claims it's easy for beginners to create text effects.
Advanced users can take advantage of the program's more sophisticated controls for complex images.
Sample images and animation created with the program are also on display.
