Creating Your Own Project
We'll begin by opening up a new Comic Life document and choosing a template for our comic. You'll learn how to add panels, images, speech, and text to your comic pages. You'll also learn how to manipulate the elements on your page so that they are sized, positioned, and styled the way you want them to be. You can print your finished comic or create a PDF document to share with others.
