Breeze Booth comes with five sample events as standard, professionally designed to run on iPads. You can tweak or customize these examples to use at your own events.
Note: This post was updated in September 2019 for the latest releases of Hotfolder Prints 1.8, and Webcam Photobooth 1.5.
If you are new to DSLR Remote Pro or Webcam Photobooth, first run the Photo booth Setup Wizard. This creates all the screens for a basic working system. It also creates print layouts with a plain white background. The video demonstrates

Notes
The video is intended to give you a taste of the Print Layout Editor. See the program help files for more details
Find a great video introduction to using tokens with Breeze here
There are minor differences in the way tokens work in these three programs:
{eventName} and {dateLess8h} are new in Hotfolder Prints 1.8
{eventName} is not yet supported in Webcam Photobooth
DSLR Remote Pro Print Layout Editor displays the current value of tokens
Hotfolder Prints and Webcam Photobooth Print Layout Editors display the token names in the print layout editor
Importing pre-designed layouts into Breeze
Learn more about using layouts I used in the video here .These free templates were kindly provided by SMOVE for use by Breeze customers.
NB: Logos are not saved in the Photobooth Print Layout (pblt file) in this release. To use both predesigned layout and logos, you need to import the layout before adding the logos to your design.

2018 is quickly becoming a whirlwind for Breeze, but one that we’re very excited about.
With new products in the pipeline and enhancements being made to existing products, we can’t wait to share our 2018 updates with you.
For now, we just wanted to mention that we’re currently going through a full visual rebrand with Dan, Glen & Spadge; the awesome team at Simple as Milk
What does this mean for our customers?
This rebrand means that you will soon start to see pieces of our new identity pop up here and there throughout our website, social media and at Photo Booth Expo.
It will bring a much needed update to our visual brand, one which better reflects our identity as a company, our products, our technology and our future vision.
