Here are a few tips and tricks that can make your Heritage Studio experience even better.

• Once you are finished with an object (picture, text, etc.), instead of leaving it to the side of the page, delete it.  This will allow your pages to load and preview faster.
  
• When you first open a project, go to your page navigator on the right and click on each page. The, go back to the page that you want to work on. This causes all of the pages to load up behind the scenes while you are working on your current page. Later, when you’re ready to click on a new page, it’s already loaded and ready to go.
• When placing a background on your page, stretch it all the way past the red line.
• When placing text and images you don’t want cropped, keep them a quarter of an inch away from the gray border.
• If you're having trouble getting some of your changes to save (like adding drop shadows or other effects), try moving the object slightly after making the change and before you click Save or Preview.  If the last change you make to your object is to move it (even if you put it right back in the same place) all of your other changes will be saved.
• Before you click the “Publish” button to complete your project, click Save and Quit, then open the project again. Click on each finished page and let it load one more time. This will ensure that all of your changes on each page have been saved.
• When previewing your project before publishing, be sure to check each page of the preview to make sure everything has loaded properly.
