Guide
Step-by-step guides for layouts, compositing, background removal, signatures, large files, and publishing checks in XIV Frame.
Editor flow
Follow this flow when you are new. With one photo, skip layout selection and go straight to the signature and export steps.
- 01
Add photos
One photo starts as a single canvas without an automatic split. Add up to 16 images for a multi-image composition; the 2×2 Grid uses 3–4, while the 3×3 and 4×4 grids use 9 and 16.
- 02
Choose layout
For multiple images, choose split, vertical, grid, feature, equal-row/column presets, and the ratio.
- 03
Add a composite image
Remove a background and place an image element over the canvas.
- 04
Tune the signature
Refine text, logos, and the copyright mark.
- 05
Save the result
Review the result and save the file.
