The Print Creator plugin (as all the rest of digiKam), is written in C++ using Qt framework. https://invent.kde.org/graphics/digikam/-/tree/master/core/dplugins/generic/tools/printcreator For the properties of the plugin, some data text files (templates) are used and located here : https://invent.kde.org/graphics/digikam/-/tree/master/core/dplugins/generic/tools/printcreator/templates These files are mostly based on XML format for the template, and INI for the desktop files. There is an howto to read : https://invent.kde.org/graphics/digikam/-/blob/master/core/dplugins/generic/tools/printcreator/templates/TEMPLATE_HOWTO Best Gilles Caulier @foto19@ernst-buerjes.de The process to contribute to PrintCreator temple is fully described in this online documentation section: https://docs.digikam.org/en/post_processing/print_creator.html#creating-a-new-layout Gilles Caulier Created attachment 158674 [details] attachment-1333820-0.html Hi Gilles, thank you for this information. But I believe that in the description is a mistake. I could not find the documentation of the templates under ||/usr/share/apps/digikam/templates/|.|I found it under |/usr/share/digikam/templates/.| Another Question: I am missing an element "text" to define position, size, color, density and contents of a photo. The contents should refer to the description, title and other metadata of the Photo as the menu of print-creator does. Print-creator works, but it doesn't work well because it puts the text into the photo - not under, beside or above it. And to find the right size forces many experiments.
